Overall, our experience was completely satisfying and enjoyable. The property was as advertised..very clean, efficient, with just about anything you would need for a comfortable stay. Multiple stores, including a vegetable/ fruit market, a meat/fish/condiments establishment, a boulangerie, pharmacy, a pizza/burger eat in/take out, a restaurant, a gas station, and a local vineyard are either a short walk or a short drive away. Patrick, the owner, was very hospitable, showing us the ins and outs of the property, as well as providing a walking tour of the port. Throughout our stay he was very conscientious and responsive to our questions and needs. The property itself offers an panoramic view of the port, the hills of Cassis and of course the Mediterranean. When not exploring Cassis and the surrounding area, we spent as much time as possible on the balcony monitoring the changing moods and personality of the Mediterranean. Just fascinating to watch the sea’s changing colors, wind blown waves, the regimen of fishing boats coming and going, and the affect of the sunshine/moon glow on the surface of the water....just mesmerizing! We should also mention that we took advantage of swimming at Bestouan Beach. The water was crystal clear and refreshing. There is a municipal parking lot conveniently adjacent with reasonable rates. A 20 minute walk from the beach are the picturesque Calanques, a site not to be missed.
We would highly recommend this property, a gem overlooking and yet so close, to wonderful Cassis.
