The beach was not worth the cost, as it appeared a bit neglected and unclean. However, the view was stunning, despite being a short drive away from the sandy swimming beaches. The pool was enjoyable and the staff were friendly.

The beach was excellent and provided a great experience. The staff were very helpful in helping us learn more about the country. It was a quiet and clean place, within walking distance to Trou Aux Biches beach and only a 10-minute drive to Balaclava beach. Additionally, it was a 10-minute drive to Croisette Mall where you can find everything you need, from food to shopping.

4 Frustrating

The beachfront property is a bit run down. The rooms are nice, but the kitchen needs an update. The refrigerator was not working properly, the cooking equipment was broken, and there was no water boiler. The air conditioning is also broken and very noisy, making it difficult to use at night. The sofas and pillows were dirty, both indoors and outdoors. The customer service was very poor, as the main contact person, Wendy, had difficulty understanding English and did not make an effort to help customers. There is no reception, so all you can do is wait for a reply. The view is great, but the beach is not suitable for swimming. Overall, it is best to stay somewhere else. We will not be returning to Bon Azur Beachfront.

The apartment was excellent. My family and I stayed there for 9 days in December 2022. The facilities were very good and clean, and the view was outstanding. Everything was fantastic. Soobhug, the manager, was very friendly and helpful in every way. The staff were also very good. I would definitely recommend these apartments. Thank you for hosting us.
