CAPBRETON
Review Submitted: August 5, 2008
Date of Stay: July 2008
The location is great, right next to the beach, but not on it as the advert states. The photo shows the dunes which are protected and not allowed on.
The property is fine, with a new kitchen. The rest of the appartment could do with some updating and finishing.
Melanie was very friendly and helpful.
The advert states a 'private pool' this is in fact shared with many others and is quite small.
The beaches are very well looked after with lots of local police and lifeguards.
We would recommend this area but point out the nearness of lots of other appartments which may contain less respectful holiday makers, as our above neighbours were. Very noisy!
Great area for a beach, surfing holiday.
Owner's Response: In general we are pleased with this feedback and would like to take this opportunity to confirm a few details.
To confirm, our property is on the sand dunes of Capbreton beach, ie there is nothing between us and the waters edge, no road, no cars and no people. We have a 50metres reserve between our private garden area and the beach strip, which has been recently and positively declared as an eco-reserve - this means that we can't go on it and nor can anybody else, which makes for a great sense of privacy. We are very grateful for the protection of the dunes.
To confirm, the pool is a private communal pool, shared by the residents, ie it is used only by the people staying in our resident villas. It is clean, contains a full-sized adult pool and children's pool, with surrounding safety fence.
To confirm, the apartment kitchen is newly-renovated and the apartment freshly painted, clean and charming.
Summer is a very popular time, attracting all sorts of people from all over Europe and normally very popular amongst families wanting to take advantage of the close beach proximity or young adults interested in a surf retreat.
