Hotels near beach

"A charming property which is a little oasis in an otherwise residential/industrial neighbourhood. The property is gorgeously presented despite its age and is overall well maintained. Giles and Luisa, the owners, were incredibly welcoming and friendly - as were any staff with whom we interacted. The room was equipped as standard with air con, fridge, safe, towels, toiletries and tea making facilities - everything was of good quality. During our (summer) stay, the weather was hot so only a sheet was provided, but I’m sure blankets would be available at other times. The pool and surrounding area were well maintained and excellent for some summer sunbathing and swimming. There is not much to see or do outside the property walls unless you have a car or taxi - but it is very well situated for the airport - a 12-minute taxi away. We would gladly stay again!"

"Excellent hotel with an incredible view on the port and the bay!!"

"Air con didnt work, ended up opening the window and mosquitos galore. Best thing was parking was available."

"The hotel is in a very good location, in front of the beach and of a trail of about 1km heading to the city center, very nice. Snorkeling and swimming is good. Personnel is generally nice. However, the landlors (couple) is very unfriendly. We arrived at the hotel at 2:10, after a trip which started at 4AM, with delays and problems. We were tired and just wanted to put our stuff in our room, put on swimmsuites and go to the beach - we had opera at 8 in Aix. Owners insisted that "check-in is at 3PM"; even if the room is ready, they claim that keys opens the rooms at 3 (in >50 years of travelling all over the world this is the first time I hear about such a system/story) - they sent us to a room to change our stuff, did not give us a towel (they are only for the super-small "pool"). And they treated us really badly. Nextday: the locker did not work, even after changing batteries, we spent half an hour with trial and errors - I still remember the owner's aggressive voice saying "can't you wait 10 minutes?" Now, accidets happen, and indeed the personnel was very nice. But this lady... I never met such an unfriendly person iin an hotel. Owners should make their guests happy, not confront them with hursh and aggressiveness! So: the hotel is very nice, 5 stars, and most likely you will not meet the landlors, but in my opinion they deserved 1 star. As I said, I am a frequent traveller, visiting hotels all around the world, but I never had such bad experience with hotel's owners. "
