Luxury Studio Apartment in Californie, Cote d Azur Reviews

We stayed in the apartment for 9 nights in September and had a lovely time. The apartment is in a great location, and is within walking distance to the beach and lots of lovely restaurants, and also a great supermarket is only a 10 min walk. Its a real home from home with a lovely view from the balcony and home comforts like sky TV. It was great to be able to use the hotel facilities too (although be warned the pool is FREEZING).

Peter was a joy to deal with on booking and everything was smooth and hassle free. The transfers to and from the airport are excellent and I would definitely recommend doing this. Its just such a shame Peter was back in the UK and we never got to meet.

I would not hestitate to stay here again and would definitely recommend this to anybody thinking about it - in fact I gave Peters details to a couple at the hotel pool. It was just such a shame we had to leave.

The apartment is situated in the Novotel complex in a private residential block with lovely views of the pool area and sea. It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Peter and Eileen met us at the airport and drove us directly to the apartment, which was quicker and cheaper than booking a transfer or a taxi. Eileen showed us around when we arrived and gave us information about places to eat and visit. There is a large supermarket 5 minutes away and the beach is about 15 minutes away. Guests are able to use the pool free of charge but sunbeds must be booked the day before and there is a charge to use them, although you do get a discount if you use the loyalty card (as well as a discount at the bar and hotel restaurant) which is provided on arrival. Peter and Eileen were very helpful and were located nearby so we knew we could get in touch with them if there was a problem. We also booked our return journey to the airport with them which was again cheaper and quicker than public transport. However in retrospect we would probably not have done this as we arrived at the airport at 11.30am, having vacated the apartment at 11 so it could be prepared for the next guests, but our flight wasn't until 4.30pm, meaning we had a 5 hour wait in the airport with nothing to do! This was the only negative part of an otherwise great holiday.

Everything as descibed! Peter and Eileen could not have been more helpful - excellent service. Location is good and near to most facilities. The walk to and from the town can be achieved in a relaxed, leisurely 20 minutes. Cannes has a lot to offer for all age ranges. Great supermarket is a 10 minute stroll away - stock up on water, wine etc. Best restuarant we visited was 'Poivre et Sel' in the 'Old Town'. Recommend asking for airport transfer if arriving at Nice - saved a lot of hassle. Hope to meet up again! Thanks - Amy, Christine and Tony.

My husand and I stayed in this studio for a week in mid July 2011. Peter made us feel really comfortable during the booking process and always answered my e-mails really fast. Eileen met us in the hotel lobby upon arrival and gave us a tour of both the apartment and the hotel facilities. She also gave us some great information on where to go and what to see in the area which was really helpful. We found some great places to eat thanks to her.

The studio looked exactly as in the pictures and the view from the balcony was great! The sofa bed was really comfortable to sleep in even though I was pregnant. The kitchen and the bathroom was clean and functional and so was the rest of the studio. The studio was very well-maintained. We loved it! We made breakfast there every day and also dinner a couple of nights. There was also free parking in a garage just below and there was always lots of spaces available which was great since we had a rental car.

As guests in the apartment we were entitled to a 15% discount at the hotel ( adjoining the apartment block). We used the pool once and also had a late lunch there upon arrival.

When we left Eileen took care of all the cleaning - wonderful!

All in all we had a wonderful stay in this studio and we would love to come back! We highly recommend it.

We stayed in the apartment in mid July, and Peter and Eileen made us feel so relaxed at the booking process and very welcome on arrival. We took up the offer of transfers from Nice airport and it was great to have Peter there when we got off the flight.

after the short car journey to the apartment, Peter could not have been more helpful. With a tour of both the apartment and the hotel facilities. Peter gave us a selection of maps with information on where to go and how best to get around.

we took advantage of the hotels facilities with a lovely dinner on our first day and then a day by the pool later on during our stay. with the apartment located so close to Cannes sea front, a short walk and we were in all the action.

The apartment was clean, tidy, functional with a lovely sea view balcony. The sky TV was a great bonus!

We will definitely be coming back!
