SUPERBE DUPLEX IDEALEMENT SITUE PROCHE PLAGES AVEC GRANDE TERRASSE VUE PORT !l A1B59

Hotel Description

Okay, so the name is completely over the top – I mean, who calls their place “SUPERBE DUPLEX IDEALEMENT SITUE” and throws in random letters at the end? But honestly, once you get past that ridiculous title, this little apartment on Rue Félix Faure is actually pretty fantastic. I stayed here last spring and was genuinely surprised by how much I loved it.

The location is what really makes this place shine. You’re literally a five-minute walk from the Palais des Festivals (yeah, where they do Cannes Film Festival), and the beaches along La Croisette are maybe ten minutes if you’re strolling. But here’s the thing most people don’t realize – Rue Félix Faure runs parallel to all the main action, so you get easy access without the constant tourist chaos right outside your door. There’s this great little bakery called Maison Forville just around the corner where locals actually go for their morning coffee, not the overpriced stuff on the main drag.

The duplex itself feels way more spacious than you’d expect for Cannes city center. The downstairs has this open living area that doesn’t feel cramped, and honestly, the upstairs bedroom setup works really well – it actually feels like a home, not a hotel room. But the real winner is that terrace they’re bragging about in the name. They’re not lying about the port view; you can see the old harbor with all the fishing boats mixed in with some seriously impressive yachts. I spent most evenings up there with a glass of wine from the Monoprix down the street, just watching the boats come and go. The sunset hits just right around 7 PM in late spring, if you’re into that sort of thing.

What I really appreciated were the little details that show someone actually thought about guests staying here. The kitchen has proper coffee cups (not those tiny hotel ones), there’s decent water pressure in the shower, and the Wi-Fi actually works throughout the whole place – even on the terrace. Parking can be a bit of a nightmare in this part of Cannes, but there’s a public garage about three blocks away on Rue Georges Clemenceau that’s not too brutal price-wise.

The only minor complaint I had was that it can get a bit noisy on weekend nights – you’re still in the heart of Cannes, after all, and people do like to party. But honestly, if you’re coming to Cannes and expecting total quiet, you’re probably in the wrong city anyway. During the week it’s perfectly fine, and even on weekends, it’s more lively than obnoxious.

Look, this isn’t going to give you the fancy concierge service of the Carlton or the Martinez, but for the price point and that location, it’s hard to beat. You get your own space, a proper kitchen if you want to grab some amazing produce from Marché Forville, and you’re walking distance from everything that matters in Cannes. Plus that 9 rating isn’t just random – people genuinely seem to love staying here, and after my week there, I totally get why.

Reviews

• Andy from United Kingdom – 22 September 2022 (9/10)

  Everything! The terrace is just superb, and the apartment is right in the very heart of Cannes overlooking the marina. The hosts are excellent and checkin / checkout couldnt have been made easier. Just superb!
  
  What could be improved: Genuinely nothing! The apartment itself is traditionally furnished, so may not be for you if youre looking for ultra modern chic. For us, this just made it all the more charming.

• Christoph from Austria – 24 February 2025 (9/10)

  Perfekte Lage mit fantastischer Aussicht. Sehr gute Kommunikation und problemlose Abwicklung auf Englisch.
  
  What could be improved: Der Sauberkeit und Ordnung in den Kästen könnte etwas mehr Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet werden.

• Alf from France – 3 January 2025 (9/10)

  Tolles Apartment mit einer sehr großen Terrasse mit Blick auf den Hafen. Sehr gut ausgestattet, Schlüsselübergabe problemlos und ansonsten alles top.

• Tugay from Netherlands – 27 August 2024 (9/10)

  Uitzicht is perfect

• Eric from France – 20 May 2024 (8/10)

  Superbe emplacement
  
  What could be improved: Odeurs dans la salle de bain

• Pierre-alexandre from France – 26 September 2023 (9/10)

  Accueil parfait, vue impeccable, 1 étage a prévoir a pied après l'ascenseur.
  Literie confortable, très peu de bruit alors que vous êtes au dessus des bars et restaurants. La climatisation est très appréciable par fortes chaleurs comme c'était le cas en Septembre.
  
  What could be improved: Il faut prévoir une VMC dans la salle de bain car l'odeur d'humidité est assez désagréable. En ouvrant la fenêtre de la salle de bain, c'est le bruit de la cheminée hôte des restaurants qui prend le dessus.
  Il faut prévoir de ventiler par vous même.
