La Maison de la Rose

Dinner was fantastic, easily one of the best three meals I've ever had. It felt worthy of a Michelin star. We finished with coffee and drinks in the little lobby and game area, which was a really nice spot.

We'd booked in January, but only heard about the poolside techno disco two weeks before arriving. There wasn't enough time to find somewhere else locally, and although we were given rooms as far from the noise as possible, the event ran from 7 pm until midnight and was crowded. It meant we barely got to enjoy the pool or its fabulous view during our two-night stay. The hotel is promoted as luxurious and tranquil, so this was a very disappointing experience. We didn't stay for the second night.

The shower was awkward to use, and breakfast could have been better. The croissants and bread weren't crisp, and we'd have preferred a proper espresso to drip coffee. Those were small letdowns in an otherwise gorgeous hotel, with beautiful rooms and facilities and a really relaxing, luxurious feel. The team deserves credit too, the service was excellent. We've stayed in countless hotels, and this is one of the most beautiful we've come across.

The sea and cliff views are stunning, and it's a quick walk into town and down to the beach. I could happily spend all day relaxing by the lounge fireplaces. The property was my favorite place to stay during my travels in France, and Maxime, Leonie, and the rest of the staff were some of the kindest and most helpful I've met. Breakfast had a fantastic selection and the service was great. I could eat the quiche lorraine every day. Dinner at Racines was so stunning that I left a review there too. I can only imagine how lovely it must be in summer. Hope I can come back someday!
