"Lovely spacious apartment with a balcony. Very good value for money. Used the swimming pool a couple of times and was the only person in there. Be aware it is in a retirement complex. The only negative is that the apartment wasn't cleaned while we were there (5 nights) and there were no cleaning products in there to do this ourselves. We were able to collect clean towels from reception but the used ones were not collected. Should have just asked. Having said all that, I would stay there again and simply buy some cleaning wipes."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Minerve?
The best area to stay in Minerve is within the fortified village itself, located between the Cesse and Brian rivers.This compact village is the heart of Minerve, offering a truly great experience.
