Hotel la Villa Douce

If you are not french, do not book this hotel! 1. Restaurants and bar area are not allowed to asian people? : They told us the restaurants are fully booked all night long. And i even asked them if any seats available late at night, and they kept told me they are busy. Guess what happened? More than half seats were empty after 8:30 and even i saw people walking in the the bar/restaurants. 2. Room service: i begged (literally) them we are super hungry and we need something to eat. They told us to go out of hotel to get things to eat. But the hotel located on top of the hill, and we didnt want to waste our time. So what i asked was, take out some foods from the restaurants. And then, i found out the room service was available! (After asking more than 10times! Was it a hidden secret only for french?) 3. (Continued on) room service: employee working at the lobby told me that i can only order food after 9. (It was okay to me..) and i went to the lobby around 8:40(20 minutes earlier than 9!!) and ordered food. And we saw another room service was delivered to the next door around 9:25ish??? And guess what happened? Our food delievered to our room around 10!!! (Even after calling more than 3 times, and employee just hung up on me!) Ive been to france more than 5 times, and it was almost a nigh**are to us! And i figured out we were only asian, and we were only ppl speaking in english! Please please do not book this hotel if you dont speak french! ** and i reported this to the trip.com and they told me that the hotel will give us a email about this ( to say sorry). It has been more than a week and i never got any email from you. You guys are just ******!**** Picture below : took around 8:30-9, most of seats were empty and few people walked in to the place w/o reservation

Our stay at this beautiful hotel was wonderful from start to finish! The rooms were beautifully decorated and comfortable, all with gorgeous views of the Mediterranean. There was great seating out by the pool and convenient access to meals- lunch, dinner and even snacks and drinks by the pool. The hotel offers a shuttle down to a great beach that is only a few minutes drive. Probably the best quality of our stay was the friendly, kind, and helpful staff who did everything and more to make sure we were happy and taken care of- I really can’t say enough about them! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend!

There are many hotels on the French riviera offering amazing views, which this one has as well. The differentiator in our experience was the warm and clean swimming pool. Breakfast was good according to the French norms, but not fantastic as you can expect in bigger international hotels with much more choice. We stayed in junior suite - amazing spacious clean room! Also very safe for baby to crawl around. Overall fantastic stay. You absolutely need a car, don't count on going on feet to the beach, too far and quite a hill. A place we would like to return to.

This place is a hidden gem and surpassed all of our expectations. We were greeted by name, shown to the terrace with a nice refreshing drink then given a brief tour of the grounds before being shown to our room. We booked a pool view room on the ground floor which was the perfect location. It was late when we arrived and the view the next morning was a treat. Rooms are well equipped with everything you could ask for including a coffee machine, pillow menu, slippers, robes, Rituals soaps, safe and more. Beds were a little firmer than my preference but I have found this to be common in the South of France. There are also a water refill station on the grounds which we found useful. The breakfast buffet had a good variety and the view from the terrace was breathtaking. The hotel also offer complimentary tea time with homemade cake in the afternoon which was a nice touch. We only stayed 2 nights and during that time we ate lunch in the hotel restaurant and had drinks in the evening, both were very good. Overall we couldn't have asked for more, our only complaint was that we didn't book to stay for longer!

This is a lovely hotel with friendly staff. Everything makes you feel relaxed. We visited in November so it was chilly but still very beautiful. It must be outstanding in warmer months. It was easy to explore the area from the location.

This hotel is by far our best experience in the South of France. Nothing was too much trouble for the very professional and friendly staff of La Villa Douce - from the cleaning ladies, receptionists and concierge to the waiters/waitresses/barman. They also have a very good chef, who made deliciously fresh and sophisticated food at both lunch and dinner. We loved the buffet breakfast with mostly organic and local produce, home made cakes, etc. The pool area is lovely and very quiet & relaxing with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean. Our room was in the superior category with sea view. It had a very comfortable bed, spacious bathroom and sufficient storage space. We were also able to charge our electric car free of charge in front of the hotel. It truly felt like a home away from home, although more luxurious. We will be back for sure (and recommend your hotel to all our friends). Thank you for a magical holiday!

Outstanding hotel, restaurant, and facilities, as having an (excellent) breakfast at the terrace is quite a visual experience. Very hard to find any negatives with this top of the hill gem. Key is that hotel is open all year round, hence staff is stable. A car is needed as access is hilly.

We were welcomed by a very friendly staff who was always willing to answer questions and help in any way. The view was spectacular, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The shower...incredible! The balcony view can't be beat. Breakfast was included each day, with a wide variety of choices for food and drink. Eating breakfast on a large terrace/balcony was amazing, overlooking the Sea. We had a rental car and we drove to nearby towns and villages. The beach was lovely - the water was a tad bit cool at first, but once we got in, it was so refreshing and fun to swim in (and cool off from the sun!) We booked massages at the hotel, which were lovely, as well. The pool was refreshing and clean. The service provided at every occasion was really wonderful. I would really recommend La Villa Douce.

a classy hotel on the riviera- modern and bright with great food and lovely scenery from almost everywhere in the hotel.Gave grat tips on where to visit and see and always helpful staff. The breakfasy area overlooks the ocean and most rooms have an ocean view.We had a lovely room overlooking trhe ocean
