This condo was absolutely perfect…and I mean perfect! The interior is modern and has everything you need. There are two balconies, one gets the morning sun and overlooks the main street going through Grand Case, while the other balcony gets the afternoon sun and overlooks the ocean. We used both balconies nearly every day; morning coffee and an early evening drink, etc. The location of this condo is ideal. We walked to dinner every evening. (This saves about an hour of driving around and parking, nearly every day.) We'd come home from the beach (or wherever we were that day), have a refreshment on the balcony, shower up, and walk to dinner. There was no stress to get to our reservations on time. There is a small market just across the street where you can purchase all kinds of necessities: water, suntan lotion, food and snacks, tissue paper, etc. There are all kinds of other shops and restaurants just outside the front door as well…and a bakery about 1&1/2 blocks away. Also, there is a private entrance to the beach from the building. You can walk downstairs, head out the back door, and go for a nice walk on the beach. The water is very nice for swimming (not choppy), and the beach is the perfect length for a daily walk or run. You have a parking space, which is ideal because parking spaces are scarce and generally about 8 blocks away. It's a quick trip to get to some of the other popular beaches (Orient, Galleon, etc.), convenient enough that sometimes we'd just come home for lunch and sit on the balcony, and then head back to the beach. I'd recommend renting a vehicle, and the owner recommended a guy (business) to rent from, and that worked out perfectly (excellent customer service). Overall, I have to say that this was the most relaxing winter vacation I've ever been on, simply because the condo was perfect and the location made everything so easy. A few things to note: The caretaker only speaks French. I speak a few languages, but not French. This made things a little difficult. We managed through a series of hand signals, but overall it made it a bit difficult for us. Make sure you close the security door on the sliding glass door if you leave. The neighbors were robbed (thieves watch you). Renting a condo, there is no water when you arrive, and you need to purchase toilet paper, etc. There is a cell phone you can use (you buy cards with time on them), but it's all in French. But, overall, I'd HIGHLY recommend this condo.
