We had a lovely stay, a truly pleasant Hotel for those needing that relaxing break/holiday away to recharge. Thank Y
Pros:

We had a perfect 5 night stay. It is definitely a top end 3* Hotel, wonderfully presented & clean. We had a lovely sized Room (205), beds so comfy, separate toilet to shower room, felt like a mini apartment really. Heated Pool, not big, not small, great to have to enjoy. Good location for beach and restaurants etc. We always found free parking outside the hotel. The staff & family who run the hotel were very friendly & polite.

Cons:

Nothing we didn’t like. Just a few observations from us to the Hotel without prejudice:

. The availability of a small mini-fridge in some of the rooms would be a nice option for Guests to be able to have/book.
. It would be nice if the Bar area, at least in the summer months, stayed open slightly longer (closes @ 20:00).
. Some relaxing music played out over The Pool/Terrace area during some hours of the day would be a nice touch.

Hôtel bien entretenu mais espace restreint en comparaison des photos d’où déception
Pros:

Accueil ok , situation géographique si l’on souhaite se déplacer vers les îles et La Rochelle

Cons:

Le rapport qualité /prix le tarif est élevé par rapport à des prestations un peu restreintes : chambres très petites , pas de possibilités de boissons en chambre , pas de serviettes pour la piscine ( sauf demande) pas de frigo …

Bon séjour globalement … à recommander!
Pros:

L’accueil des gérants et leur disponibilité….
Petit déjeuner très sympa!
La proximité de la plage et de cette belle promenade sur le front de mer!

Cons:

Les clients qui fument sur les terrasses au moment du petit déjeuner…. C’est incorrect ! Mais il est vrai qu’il y a un cendrier sur chaque table!
Je propose de les supprimer et de créer une zone pour les  « addicts » devant l’établissement entre les bacs à fleurs et la devanture! La même chose pourrait aussi se faire vers le parking à l’arrière !
Bien sûr, cela n’a rien à voir avec le personnel qui est charmant …. mais un simple rappel de civisme auprès de certains clients!!!

What a find! Thanks to all here
Pros:

We loved the whole place, from the initial walk in & welcome, to the spotless room with AC, secure parking, the superb breakfast - plus its location to the centre of town & the beach!

Cons:

We only stayed for one night… plans to revisit and for longer next time are being made!

You could have a pleasant stay as long as you don’t question Frederick and his rules.
Pros:

A modern, clean and well maintained property. Also a good breakfast with friendly staff, apart from Frederick, the owner who spoiled our visit when we visited the pool area.

Cons:

We did not like burning our feet around the pool in 40 degree canicule heat. We understood that the owner Frederick had a rule about removing sandals due to bacteria, but he did not offer an alternative to avoiding blisters to our feet. Whilst I was inside the hotel, Frederick decided the best way of communicating this rule was to shout angrily at my wife in French and humiliate and upset her in front of other guests. Aggressive behaviour towards guests, or indeed anyone should NEVER be tolerated.
