Spectacular Toulon Holiday Apartment with Beach Views, Garage Parking, France Reviews

Our American family had a relaxing and wonderful week while in this apartment. The owner was nice, honest, prompt, and represented the space accurately. The beds were new and fabulous (one the size of a queen and the other room had two twins). The kitchen was redone only 6 months ago, so it was clean and nicely furnished. Toulon surprised us in many ways. First and foremost, everyone was extremely kind. We didn't hear a word of english....SO refreshing.....but everyone tried to help us find our way and they were eager to use what language skills they had ( we could always communicate). People were so happy! We arrived by train. The taxi ride was 13 euro to arrive and 17 euro (we had a reservation) to depart from the apartment. 60 % of the french military fleet are at this harbor. There is a great amount of history to be had. We took a water tour of the harbor (10 euro each, but they gave us 4 for the price of 3....see, so nice!). The tour was in french but we had a written english version. A young french girl came to help us. Again, so nice, so kind and so happy to come to our aid unsolicited. There are many, many young men in Toulon. Our daughters (23 and 20) felt safe but also appreciated the attention. The apartment did not have air conditioning. There was a stand up fan and reliable evening breeze. The apartment was not spotless, but comfortably clean. We found a grocery store and bakery within a 5 minute walk. Our morning and midday food cost about 25 euros total (for 4, breakfast and lunch)per day at the grocery and dinners were usually 15-20 euros each per night. We spent about $150.00 per day( for 4) on food and meals out. Toulon boasts about having a beach that is wheelchair friendly. Yes, we saw many locals in wheelchairs. They seem to have an area to get into the water as well as a nice boardwalk to take advantage of. Parking is flat and wheelchair friendly. Yes, for so many reasons I would recommend this wonderful apartment.
