apartment seafront residence with pool and tennis

Overall the apartment was great, well provisioned and as advertised. It's location is a little far out of Andernos-les-bains so I recommend hiring a bike as soon as possible (there's a rental location just up on the main road). Then getting into town at night is very easy along the beach-front cycle path. There is a big main cycle path that runs parallel to the main road and that makes going further on bikes easy too. A few little things spoilt our stay a bit. The apartment doesn't have air conditioning or wi-fi which was a bit of a shock, and the pool is close by but there were only three sun-loungers available and no shade! Also the little room with the triple bed is really just beside the front door and would be very cramped if you have three kids! Communication with the owner was poor, so watch out for the little extras - like sheets (which were terrible very thin 'single use' paper towels) and cleaning afterwards is apparently extra too. We left the flat in a very reasonable condition, but I got an angry email after our trip, that we'd not left it ready to be re-let immediately! This was a shame and not what I'd expected at all. This really is intended as a family block, but there were a couple of noisy parties on Friday and Saturday night. The family feel extends to the apartment too - there's quite a lot of the owner's personal stuff around, games and DVDs. I'd recommend it for a small relaxed family break but maybe not for more city-types looking for a smart hotel alternative.
