What guests think
Reviews of Balaena - maison avec jardin proche plage describe a spacious, well equipped house with a beautiful garden near the beach and shops, popular for families and groups, and appreciated for its bright, airy living spaces.
Many highlight the generous communal areas and the garden’s frequent peacock visits. Cleanliness can be inconsistent, with reports of pet hair, dust, and an unclean barbecue, though several found the home very clean. Parking and access are tight for more than one car, and some mention extra charges for linens and towels and occasional weak follow up on minor issues like an empty BBQ gas bottle. Overall, expect a comfortable base with standout outdoor space.
