This is the family-friendly, self-catering end of Grand-Case, set on its own quiet Petite Plage at the northern tip of the bay. You get a full kitchen, a calm swimming beach with snorkelling straight off the sand, and a short flat walk into the gourmet village with its famous beach barbecue lolos. For parents who want independence plus a great location, it is hard to beat.
Our verdict
The best base for foodie families who want a kitchen, a calm beach and the gourmet village of Grand-Case on foot. Book a two-bedroom with a sea view.
The rooms
Studios and one and two-bedroom apartments, all with a full kitchen and most with a sea-view balcony. Being able to cook breakfast and store milk and snacks makes a real difference with young children, and the two-bedroom units suit a family of four well.
