C009-Duplex avec vue sur mer et piscine

Hotel Description

Honestly, when I first pulled up to this duplex on Avenue Francis Tonner, I wasn’t sure what to expect – the name “C009-Duplex avec vue sur mer et piscine” sounds pretty clinical, right? But you know what, sometimes the most understated places surprise you the most. This isn’t your typical Cannes hotel experience, and I mean that in the best possible way.

The location is actually brilliant if you know Cannes at all. You’re tucked away from the madness of La Croisette (thank god, because that gets overwhelming fast), but you can still walk to the beach in about ten minutes if you don’t mind a little stroll. What really got me was stepping into this duplex and realizing you’ve got actual space to breathe – I’m talking real rooms, not those cramped hotel boxes where you’re tripping over your suitcase. The sea view from upstairs is legit too, not one of those “if you crane your neck and squint” situations. You can actually see the Mediterranean stretching out, and on clear mornings – well, it’s the kind of view that makes you want to have your coffee outside even when you’re usually rushing around.

The pool area is where this place really shines, honestly. It’s shared, but never felt crowded when I was there (granted, this was late September, so maybe it’s different in peak summer). There’s something about having a proper pool when you’re staying somewhere that just changes the whole vibe – you’re not tied to beach schedules or fighting for lounge chairs with tourists. The duplex setup means you’ve got privacy too, which is rare in Cannes unless you’re dropping serious cash. I mean, the 4-star rating feels about right – it’s not dripping with luxury, but everything works well and feels thoughtfully maintained. The kitchen upstairs actually has decent equipment if you want to grab groceries from the Monoprix down the street (parking can be a bit tricky around there, just so you know).

What I really appreciated was how quiet it gets at night. You’re close enough to walk into town for dinner – and you should definitely hit up some of the spots along Rue Meynadier for proper local food – but far enough that you’re not dealing with party noise or traffic all night. The 9.1 rating makes sense when you factor in that sweet spot of location, space, and value. It’s not trying to be the Carlton or the Martinez, and that’s exactly why it works.

Reviews

• Only 10 min drive from the centre by Uber. Beautiful view. Comfortable and clean apartment. – Anna from Netherlands – 10 April 2025 (10/10)

  What could be improved: Keys collection point located in the completely different location which you have to know in advance and take into account before arrival. Not comfortable to come to the location point after the flight and then to travel to the apartment.

• Exceptional – Osam from Saudi Arabia – 22 September 2023 (10/10)

  Every things was good
  
  What could be improved: Difficult to know the location and no body help u

• Great view and very clean. – Reem from United Arab Emirates – 24 May 2023 (8/10)

  It’s a beautiful and clean property with a wonderful sea view.
  
  What could be improved: I just had difficulty in the beginning finding it, I wish someone from the property met us there on arrival. once that sorted everything else went smooth but took me a good 40 minutes to find the gate when I was just near it as it’s a bit hidden.

• feel comfortable, safe and secure in paradise – Parsons from Singapore – 9 August 2022 (9/10)

  The apartment space is exceptional especially for longer stays I.e. 1+ week. 2 stories with bottom floor bedroom looking out to the beach … incredible way to wake each day. Apartment has a huge roof terrace with sun beds and amenities which I found unique and ideal for relaxing. internally apartment is super well equipped with everything you need and overall very clean. location is Bocca a short distance from Cannes central which I liked as it was more local and quite but close enough to go into Cannes central either by walking along beach or via bus right outside apartment complex. large private garage for car which again was appreciated for convenience and safety. 5 min walk from beach and great street for dining.
  
  What could be improved: hard to really fault … maybe slow lift which was out of operation for a short time on one day.

• Worst experience ever – Helen from United Kingdom – 3 October 2023 (1/10)

  We turned up to find the apartment had not been cleaned or serviced, it was not habitable, hair everywhere, dirty, food remnants, drink bottles everywhere, piles of toenail clippings next to bed, cigarette butts, and dirty in every room. Beds unmade. No clean linen or towels. Absolutely nothing nice to share. We waited 2 hours for Maybehost to call us back. We had to book and move to an alternative hotel, and Maybehosts are refusing to return our money for a property we could not even stay in. Booking . Com advised us to move to alternate accommodation as they also couldn’t get hold of the hosts within 2 hours of our arrival, and yet we are still struggling to get a full refund. Maybehosts agreed to give us a refund by phone but have not honoured it. Beware of this company.
  
  What could be improved: Everything as above. The lift was not working so we dragged our suitcases up a spiral staircase 5 floors. The lights go off quickly so you get trapped in pitch black corridors looking for the apartment. The apartment is old, tired, mould in bathroom. Its a lot smaller than the photographs look. Its very difficult to find. You have to collect the keys from Cannes which is a totally different area and 20 mins by taxi. The complex is like a prison and we got stuck in there trying to exit for almost an hour after we left, as we had left the keys in the apartment as instructed by Maybehosts. I don’t often leave reviews unless they are of high praise and positive, but I really don’t know how it has scored a 9* rating. Beware.

• Exceptional – Paulo from Brazil – 23 July 2025 (10/10)

  A localização é fantástica!
  
  What could be improved: As explicações sobre a localização das chaves deveriam ser feitas logo quando fosse feita a reserva. Nós estávamos de carro. Quem vier de outro tipo de transporte, (trem, táxi, uber) atentar para a localização das chaves. Elas não ficam próximas à propriedade. Falta, também, umas fotos da entrada principal e da garagem

• Parfait pour un cour séjour et pour avoir une belle base où travailler et se reposer. – Philippe from France – 6 June 2024 (9/10)

  Vue sur la mer, tranquilité, et équipement très complet. Très agréable.
  
  What could be improved: Simple suggestion : mettre un répéteur Wifi pour avoir une meilleure connection sur la terrasse. Aucun problème à l'intérieur de l'appartement.

• Exceptional – Cedrick from France – 16 May 2024 (10/10)

  La disposition et l’aménagement de l’appartement, la vue, la proximité des commerces, le rapport qualité prix, la piscine, l’entretien de l’immeuble, les explications (garage et boîte à clef notamment)
  
  What could be improved: La circulation importante qui s’entend si on garde les fenêtres ouvertes.
  Dommage qu’il n’y ait pas la possibilité de récupérer les clefs directement à la résidence. Néanmoins, tout est pensé pour en faciliter le retrait et le dépôt.

• Exceptional – Arkadiusz from Poland – 3 May 2024 (10/10)

  Polecam. Jeśli miałbym wrócić to właśnie tu.
  
  What could be improved: Uważam, że dla nie których osób problemem może być odbiór kluczy oraz dostanie się do apartamentu oraz obsługa wszystkich udogodnień 😉

• Exceptional – Nassima from France – 20 April 2024 (10/10)

  L'appartement est juste top , il ne manque rien .
  Des équipements de qualités.
  La vue est exceptionnelle ainsi que l'emplacement.
  Nous reviendrons vite.
  
  What could be improved: Rien . Même le quartier, connaissant Cannes centre j'ai aimé le côté beaucoup plus populaire et aimable de la Bocca . Je valide ++++
