The apartment was clean and well maintained, and just as described in the listing. It is quite overlooked but still felt private. The owners provided plenty of towels, linen, equipment (with instructions in French and English when required) and also some little extras like beach parasols, which was a nice touch. It is a very short walk to the beach. Communication with the owners and apartment manager was easy.

We had never used "Home Away" before but we can highly recommend it. The Apartment is very close to the beach (150 meter) and the area is clean and quiet.
As the apartment is on the 3rd floor we have a number of steps to climb. The balcony has got a view of the mountains and lovely evening sun-set.
It states the apartment sleeps 6, however ideally we think it would suit a small family with small children (as there is only 1 bedroom with twin-bed and bunk bed).
The sofa in the living room can be pulled out to a bed, but it is not very practical (disturbing early morning/late night).
We would gladly come back to this apartment and location in the future.
The area is superb (nearly 100% French), and with only short distance from the beach, the apartment is nicely situated 2 streets back.
The beach is one of the best we have ever experienced (on par or better than sandy beaches in Egypt and Cuba) - and NO problems getting a space close to the water to get a little breeze.
Local bakery is just around the corner, getting the morning Baguette, Croissant and Pain au chocolate.
Canet-Plage area has got lots of bar and restaurant in the area and we found the local square really good, at the bar just sitting back with a bottle of wine (people watching).
There is NO issue with noise as we are about 500 meter from the busiest bar, restaurant and club street.

When we booked this apartment we were wondering about the area. A search of the location suggested it was close to the beach, but we were afraid it might be noisy. We shouldn't have worried. The area is neat, clean and quiet. The owners were easy to communicate with and the key holder was pleasant and punctual. This is great value compared to some that we looked at.
All in all, we were really happy with the location. It is close to the beach, close to the port area and just a couple of minutes stroll from plenty of restaurants and the local market.
There are some really good restaurants in the area at reasonable prices. This was our first stay in Canet Plage, however we are very familiar with the region. We would highly recommend the area and the apartment.
