"Property is well maintained and very close to the terminals. Staff were unilaterally kind and helpful. Very short stay, so can’t comment on a lot - but definitely recommend that they include creamer of SOME sort with their lobby coffee, LOL!! At 4:30 am, it would have been really nice! Recommend it to other travelers!"

"Didn’t realise the family rooms were adjoining rooms so was confused to get two key cards and it gave us tons of space. Was a bit concerned with the appearance when we turned up, but the hotel was perfect for a 1 night pit stop after landing in Marseille on the way to Provence and beyond. Rooms clean, beds clean. Restaurant was lacking. Didn’t have breakfast. Great for our intended purpose."

"There is a little snack shack on site but food is limited. Turns out there is a small grocery on site though. The beach does not look like that main photo, but it was still a pleasant place to hang out. There is also a pool and a playground, laundry facilities, and the cabin was actually pretty nice. I did not notice until after I booked that I'd have to clean it myself before leaving (or else face a hefty cleaning charge) and that linens and towels are not provided without renting them. So it felt like what was a reasonable priced stay could have extended into something not worth the money for sure. The amenities were good, the cabin was nice, the AC and the Mediterranean were wonderful."
