Initially, it was somewhat difficult to access the property but once we contacted the phone number at the gate it was a super easy process. Our hostess was very flexible, accommodating and made the process of checking in extremely easy for us.
The property was beautiful the views were amazing and it was extremely clean.
Places to eat and shop were at a far walking distance but if you like exploring you’ll enjoy the journey. Uber eats is also available and has decent choices.

Truly breath taking view from the apartment, room 326, we requested to change the room as we would liked to have sea view instead of having two bed rooms which looked like located the lower level of building. The receptionist, Melissa, was amazing, she helped us to find the room that we liked. Our daughter was super happy as well. Definitely this is the place for us to come back.

Looks like an unfinished blockhouse .
When I booked my reservation , for whatever reason the dates were wrong. Waited at the front office for 20 mns until someone comes . Hotel is deserted because low season . Talked to the manager asking her if we can change the date for two days earlier .there is absolutly no one in the hotel .she requires more money ( 24 euros ) saying the staying is more expensive . Quickly check on line and actually the price was lower . Then she said it cost administrative time to make the change ?
Pool was empty and so was the jacuzzi . All the lounge chairs are piled up in the restaurants !
The room was nice and so was the view . This property had a bad energy.
We are SPEECHLESS!!!!! The property had everything we were looking for! We traveled with our teenage kids and they absolutely love it !! WARNING ‼️ IF you okay doing a little walking “several sets of stairs then you got a winner!!! The views and the infinity pool are AMAZING!! TaHANK YOU SARAH you are an outstanding host!! We will be back!

Sara, the host/owner, is the friendliest of people you’ll ever come across. It is the most conveniently located home away from home on the Riviera, minutes from Monaco, and Nice, and with easy access to A8 freeway if you’re in mood to go for a drive to Italy, or Western France

More attention to what a traveler needs.
Lovely apt. clean and modern beautiful views. Short drive to Monico. Missing basic essentials, laundry soap, spatula and toilet paper, half a role for 3 days. No response until last day, forced to by our own.
Hard to locate- steep parking and many steps. Now at second location with all essentials and making up for how it should be when you rent an apt with a kitchen and laundry.

The view was beautiful and the apartment was very small but nicely appointed. The air conditioning didn’t work and they did not have anyone to fix ii and it was very hot all day and into the night. The lights in the living room would not turn off and lite up the bedroom all night. The lock on the outside patio did not lock and the apartment lock was very difficult to unlockand lock. The carpet was stained and in need of a cleaning. You would think the owner or management company would take better care of the apartments. Very unhappy with the apartment outside of the beautiful view!!

The view from the rooms in this hotel are fantastic! However, the hotel is extremely inaccessible, and our rooms were all at opposite ends of the complex. It was very difficult to get our luggage from the car park to the hotel rooms, as all of our rooms required climbing stairs as lifts didn't go to our floor and at night it was very dark. - We wouldn't recommend staying here if anyone has mobility issues as you would struggle.
Whilst the reception are always easily reachable by WhatsApp and respond quickly, there are however no staff on site in the evenings so you are unable get extra linen or towels, or toilet roll, despite asking multiple times.
Three days in a row we asked for our sofa bed to be made up, someone brought us new towels but never made the bed up.
Rooms weren't cleaned each day.
Some rooms in the hotel are really lovely, clean and modern and all rooms have an excellent sea view. However, some rooms are dated and are in need of repairs as some of our rooms had doors which didn't shut properly.
Parking was great though, there was very ample parking at this hotel and for tall vehicles.

Pool closed
Excellent location for Monaco, steep hill and lots of stairs but not a problem for us.
Apartment and area was clean enough some residential units on the plot as well.
The pool which is amazing and not done justice by the pictures was closed, this was a big selling point of this apartment.
I was told when i asked it was seasonal but it was 23 degrees all week.
The tourist tax i was charged was more than advertised in the apartment and wasn't mentioned in the ad online.
Close to everything by car, 15 mins by steps down to the station
