Apartment Cristal Croisette-4 by Interhome

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first heard “Apartment Cristal Croisette” I was expecting something a bit more… well, crystal-like? But you know what, this place actually surprised me in the best way. It’s one of those Interhome properties that sits right on Pointe Croisette, which – if you’ve never been to Cannes – is basically where the famous Croisette boulevard curves around toward the old port. You’re literally a few minutes’ walk from all the Festival Palace madness, but far enough out that you’re not dealing with the constant parade of tourists taking selfies outside the red carpet entrance.

The apartment itself has this sort of understated charm that I really appreciated. It’s not trying to be some over-the-top luxury suite (hence the 3-star rating), but everything works and it’s clean and comfortable. The kitchen actually has proper cookware – I mean, you can make real meals here, not just heat up croissants. Which is great because honestly, eating out every meal in Cannes will drain your wallet faster than you’d think. The living space has these big windows that let in all that Mediterranean light, and if you crane your neck just right from the balcony, you can catch glimpses of the sea between the other buildings. The Wi-Fi was solid when I was there last spring, though I imagine it might get stressed during Festival season when every other apartment is packed with film industry folks trying to upload screeners.

What I really loved about staying here was the neighborhood feel – you’re on the Croisette but it’s the quieter end, so you get that Riviera glamour without feeling like you’re trapped in a tourist snow globe. There’s this little bakery about two blocks inland that locals actually go to (not the fancy patisseries right on the main drag), and the evening walks along the water are just… well, they’re pretty spectacular. The building itself is nothing fancy from the outside, but the Interhome check-in process was smooth, and parking – which is absolutely crucial in Cannes – was way less stressful than I expected. That 8.2 rating makes sense to me; it’s not perfect, but it delivers on what matters. During the off-season it’s peaceful enough that you can actually hear the waves from the apartment, though come summer you’ll definitely hear more street noise and late-night revelry. If you want to feel like you’re living in Cannes rather than just visiting it, this place hits that sweet spot.

Reviews

• Ledia from Italy – 5 January 2024 (9/10)

  Posizione tranquilla vicino al mare in una bellissima residenza
  Casa accogliente, grande e pulita.
  Molto facile l'accesso.Tutto perfetto
  
  What could be improved: L'unica pecca è che mancava il forno, e un fornello non funzionava, cosa che abbiamo segnalato subito ma non abbiamo avuto nessun riscontro in una settimana di permanenza.

  La posizione è ottima (Quartiere Pointe Croisette), in 1 minuto a piedi si raggiunge la spiaggia libera "plage Gazagnaire", se invece si vuole con una passeggiata di circa 10 minuti si raggiunge la spiaggia libera "plage Zamenhof", proprio sulla promenade della Croisette.
  Tutte le spiagge libere attrezzate con docce e bar.
  La zona è tranquilla, pulita, accogliente e vicina a supermercati, bar, ristoranti…
  L'appartamento è di dimensioni ottimali per 4 persone (noi 2 adulti e 2 bambine). Abbiamo sfruttato ogni giorno la spaziosa terrazza coperta, nonostante il tempo non sia sempre stato bello.
  Un plus da menzionare il garage riservato, all'interno del condominio.
  
  What could be improved: C'erano diverse cose da aggiustare che sono state segnalate all'agenzia, mi auguro che saranno sistemate al più presto. La cucina è essenziale, nel fornello ci sono solo 2 fuochi (piastre ad induzione) e un forno a microonde per riscaldare i cibi. Niente forno però c'è la lavastoviglie.
