It was Wonderful! .. For the first 4 nights anyway. It was the swimming which was the main attraction, the days at the beach within easy walking distance, exploring the region, and the evenings in the sauna and pool. At 2m depth it was ideal to teach survival skills, we met some other families and just enjoyed the evenings in the water. All was respectful, calm, everyone happy, until friday arrived and a 35-ish woman wearing sunglasses in the water also arrived. One look at us, she gets out while pointing and shouting something unintelligible at us, makes a b line to the front desk (not even taking a towel), whereby the woman at the front desk was obliged to remind us (reluctantly) that kids are not allowed past 18:00. As it was not yet 18:00, we enjoyed the rest of the time, while being watched by the sunglasses lady. Others chose to just leave. Saturday arrived, we had again a great time, and again (we'll call her "K") also arrived. Again, K goes to the front desk, never said a word to us, and makes the hostess ask us to leave the pool. So we leave, at 18:00. Maybe I don't get out much, but this was my first encounter with this kind of person, K, outside of you tube at least. That scowl was something else, and we weren't the only recipients of it. The staff handled it well friday night, but saturday could have been much better, maybe the hostess was having an off day. Overall, I was very happy with everything, we all had a great time. My experience though, the family friendly environment per other reviews and as shown to us at our arrival, can flip in an instant. 4 out of 6 nights, we can...
   Read moreWe had an apartment which is well equipped and the kitchen means we did not have to eat out all the time. The location is perfect for the racecourse and having private parking is a great help. The pool area would benefit from having lockers as we twice had our bathrobes taken by mistake as they are all identical. ||Our only issue was there not being a kettle in the room, which was confirmed by two people on reception, and by a member of housekeeping. The staff directed my wife to Carrefour to buy a kettle, which my wife understood would be refunded. The cost was 22 Euros, barely more than 1% of what we spent for our stay. The duty manager then said the cost would not be refunded, and he contradicted his own staff with various reasons why, including saying the Clserie was not a hotel, so we could not expect a kettle in the room, despite a large sign outside the property with the word 'hotel' ! It was a minor issue, which did not affect our enjoyment, but it was handled very poorly, as the duty manager then rang back to say the cost would be refunded if we provided an official receipt, but we had already provided the only receipt that Carrefour could provide..........||A silly situation for the sake of 22 Euros with guests who have stayed at the hotel for the...
   Read moreJE VOUS DĂCONSEILLE ! Nous sommes parti Ă 2 pour un week-end en amoureux Ă deauville, on se dit quâon va se faire un petit plaisir en plus en prenant une belle chambre dans un bel hĂŽtel, seulement il est indiquĂ© comme Ă©tant un hĂŽtel 4 Ă©toiles mais la vĂ©ritĂ© est tout autre ! Au dĂ©part personnel de la rĂ©ception correct ( mĂȘme si ils auraient put ĂȘtre plus accueillant). ArrivĂ© dans la chambre, hormis la superbe vue sur lâhippodrome (chambre 622 de la villa odette) nous remarquons directement le manque dâhygiĂšne, une grosse tache sur le radiateur, des draps qui nâavait pas Ă©tĂ© utilisĂ© (et encore je nâen suis pas certaine encore aujourdâhui) mais qui nâavait pas Ă©tĂ© changĂ© depuis un bon moment, une punaise de lit retrouvĂ© sur mon oreiller, nous faisons donc un Check de tout le lit et nâen voyons pas dâautre mais quand mĂȘme lorsquâon se dit hĂŽtel 4 Ă©toile câest inadmissible. AprĂšs un appel Ă lâaccueil, qui nous propose de changer de chambre mais nous propose quâune chambre largement plus petite que prĂ©vu (alors que dâautre chambre de lâĂ©tage ou nous Ă©tions Ă©taient libre et il faut savoir que nous Ă©tions dans ce qui Ă©tait marquĂ© comme les meilleurs chambre de lâĂ©tablissement), hors nous avions dĂ©jĂ payĂ© notre sĂ©jour, nous ne changeons donc pas de chambre avec espoir dâavoir un petit geste lors du paiement du parking Ă la fin du sĂ©jour. Dâautre problĂšme se sont rajoutĂ©, comme le fait quâon demande notre petit dĂ©jeuner entre 10h et 10h30 et quâil soit ramenĂ© Ă 9h45, que la personne toque mais nâattends aucune rĂ©ponse de notre part et rentre poser le plateau, (bravo lâintimitĂ© clientĂšle), et que malgrĂ© quâon ait Ă©tĂ© dehors toute lâaprĂšs-midi, et quâon ait bien enlevĂ© lâĂ©tiquette sur la porte pour prĂ©venir que nous Ă©tions sortie, la chambre nâas jamais Ă©tĂ© refaite, les draps pas changĂ©, le plateau de petit dĂ©jeuner pas rĂ©cupĂ©rĂ© depuis le matin alors que cela fait partie de leur prestation. Autre point notre lavabo dans la salle de bain avait une fuite. Jâai bien sĂ»r prĂ©venu la rĂ©ception de tout ces problĂšmes et hormis venir rĂ©cupĂ©rer le plateau de petit dĂ©jeuner dĂšs que je leur en ai informĂ© rien nâa Ă©tĂ© fait. Pour le prix payĂ© et les prestations apportĂ© on aurait mieux fait de se louer un bon airbnb. Et bien sĂ»r aucun geste nous as Ă©tĂ© fait lors du paiement du parking, jâavais lâimpression que pour eux câĂ©tait normal. Une Ă©norme dĂ©ception sur cet hĂŽtel qui de prime abord a lâair trĂšs sympa, et trĂšs reposant.
TrĂšs trĂšs loin dâĂȘtre professionnel, je vous dĂ©conseille, en tout cas Ă©viter ce complexe hĂŽtelier qui se dit 4 Ă©toiles sur tout ses Ă©tablissements alors que les prestations sont trĂšs...
