Our room was given to other guests & we were given a room 30 metres from the main road So it was very noisy There was No air conditioning, in an apartment in the south of France !! So the room was always very hot. The room faulty telephone rang every night at various times between 2.45 & 4.45am. You need a car at this location as the larger beaches & villages are not otherwise easily reached The free car parking places are very limited & the covered parking is chargeable at €57 a week extra. & The car parking places are very narrow

The good stuff: Setting is great, room was clean, kitchen was fully equipped, private beach is nice, space for 4-5 to sleep in the studio. The bad stuff: No free wifi, free parking very limited, no dish soap (despite there being a dishwasher) or hand soap. Generally, they expect that you bring all the basics. Overall, this would be good for a long stay where you can bring your own basics but isn't ideal for a weekend or short stay. Being a ways from nearby cities and not having wifi makes it tricky to plan outings. In retrospect, we might rather have stayed in Hyeres for easier access to Porquerolles.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at this residence, the rooms were adequate if not slightly cramped (it sleeps 5 but we felt like it would be difficult for any more than 2 adults and 2 children). The sandy beach is excellent and the water is lovely and clean/clear with mostly sand underfoot. Staff were fine and answered every question we had. The area is also very nice with many nearby beaches and other nice towns to visit. There were quite a few restaurants in walking distance if you choose not to cook in your self catering room. Three are (apparently) along the beach, although we only saw two, and also another two very close on the other side of the main road. There were a few disappointments but I would only call them minor grievances, such as having to pay extra for towels and a shower mat. The shower was also poor, as the water fluctuates between freezing and boiling hot which makes bathing/showering difficult, especially with small children (we have a 2 year old). The children swimming pool is fairly basic, a 40cm deep circular pool, but it does include a shower as well useful for rinsing after being on the sandy beach before going back to your room. I also felt somewhat uncomfortable in the pool with people on the sunbeds around the pool regularly giving funny looks for disturbing their relaxation by, shock horror, playing in the pool and having fun with the little one!

This is a fine holiday residence resort. The rooms are extremely small but functional. The location is superb and the private beach, a paradise, even if access to beds and umbrellas is is my view far too expensive. I would recommend this hotel for stays of between two to four days.
