Villa Garbo

We arrived early in the afternoon and we still had to wait to get our room, we thought we had booked in a hotel and so we had not thought to look if there were activities like in hotels, it was our mistake, because no activities, no swimming pool, no place to sunbathe, no real gym or hammam, simply no activities, we were staying in a large apartment but the decoration was dated, everything was a little old, we were told that a major renovation was due to take place soon, it would have been better to do this renovation before welcoming us.

We thought we had booked a hotel with its activities, but there are no activities in the hotel, yes we had a large room arranged like an apartment, no charm, view of a very busy avenue, no swimming pool, no gym, we did not see any customers, it was really sad. Not good value , too too expensif ! These are apartments or studios to rent when we wanted a hotel and its activities, Total disappointment

This hotel deserves a nice renovation and the director Laurence told us that it was planned soon, these bright colors in the rooms are daring, we will come back as soon as k=the renovation is done, in the meantime it would be good if the new management revised its prices significantly downwards because we really had the impression of paying too much

This charming family-run hotel is lovely in every way. Its location, decoration, comfort, but most of all, the warm hospitality of every staff member, which is so rare to find these days. It is highly recommended!

Firstly the location is ideal, a short walk to the public beach (opposite Hotel Martinez) and across from Rue D'Antibes. Secondly the accomodation is kept at an impeccable standard, the rooms are classically decorated and are a size ideally suited for a family. It offers a fully functioning kitchen and comfortable sofa beds that our 2 children enjoyed. Breakfast was lovely and the open bar from 6pm - 8pm was a wonderful surprise, a great way the either wind down or spoil yourself before dinner. Lastly and the best character of Villa Garbo is the staff, manager Johan supported by Elena and Chantelle take real pride in welcoming you as a house guest rather than a customer giving the property a sense of a home away from home and an air of relaxation and exclusivity. They went above and beyond to make us feel part of the 'family' providing local knowledge and assistance no matter the time. We would absolutely visit again for it would feel like seeing old friends.
