Hotel | "Le Meridien Beach Hotel"

The accommodations were 4 star rated. Most rooms faced the ocean and were spacious. Our room had a sitting room a large bathroom complete with hairdryer. We had a king size bed with spacious closets. We had a partial view of the ocean but it was superb.

Restaurant

The dining was outdoors facing the Mediterrean. The cuisine was French with a South Riviera touch. We had an appetizer of foie Gras and a salad containing olives, and local sea food. Our main course consisted of roast duck. We had a a local wine from Provence. We had in addition a cheese and fruit plate for dessert. The dining experience was excellent, the service was outstanding and the view was fantastic.
