    Choose deluxe studio with 2 beds. A refrigerator, a dishwasher, and a microwave were appreciated. Wonderful remote location really close to the downtown area in the beach, and the beach, restaurants, the zoo, amusement park, playground and shops. Also, Camping Levesque was 4.4e+02 km away.

    missing coffee maker

    The location is fantastic! We loved being so close to the beach, just a short walk away. Our four teenagers had a blast swimming in the clean heated pool and exploring nearby shops and restaurants. The staff were friendly and accommodating.

    In my wife's opinion, a coffee maker would have been great.

    dusty corners

    We had a fantastic stay with clean rooms and a perfect heated pool for the kids! There were plenty of sun loungers to relax on after our day at the beach. Just a little dusty in some corners, but overall a great time, and we'd definitely come back! 😊

    no breakfast options

    Very nice stay just steps from the beach! The beautiful suite was spacious and equipped with a kitchenette, perfect for my family of four. The outdoor heated pool was pristine and inviting. The staff's accommodating nature stood out, especially when they effortlessly switched our room to a second floor for a better ocean view. Parking was a bit limited during peak hours.

    Perfect spot for a getaway

    The location was perfect, right by the beach and close to fun stuff. The heated pool was a hit, and we loved the outdoor dining area for breakfast. The staff was super friendly, but our room felt a bit cramped. It was still a great experience.
