A very well presented hotel in an excellent location walkable to the lovely port of Sanary. Stayed as a family of 4 (children ages 10 & 12), pool area is great, air con throughout which was much needed, plentiful breakfast and very comfy beds. Sanary in the evening is a fantastic place for a family, lovely market stalls, live music and a huge range of restaurants. A really beautiful French coastal town to visit. A quality hotel in the heart of this area, would highly recommend.

Great place, great staff, pool is wonderful and lovely views. Very relaxing. Only negative is it is on top of a high hill, hence the lovely viewdata. Walking into Bandol no real issue but getting back is a bit of a challenge particularly as taxis are a big problem.

An absolutely beautiful property. So thoughtful crafted and such a homely atmosphere. Our bedroom was so comfortable and spacious. The poolside area was lovely to relax in and playing with the owner’s gorgeous dog Simba was an added touch to our trip!

We stayed here for six nights in November. Wanted a French hotel but to avoid the small rooms and tired decor that you sometimes get in 3 star hotels. The hotel was spotless, modern and sleek with rainfall showers and smart rooms. Everything was contemporary and good quality - newly tiled bathroom and modern, artistic ironwork on balcony rails.
The family, who run the hotel, were welcoming and helpful but not intrusive at all. All in all very good value.

Bonjour
The Desirade seems like a place for French people travelling within France, but if you are from elsewhere you can discover this little gem too. The owners speak French so it was good that I brushed up on my French so that we could communicate a little bit.
My husband and I went for our honeymoon and it was perfect for this. It was quiet and peaceful. We made use of the pool almost every day. We liked some of the details like the board games and leaflets about local activities.

Beautiful hotel situated overlooking Bandol harbour on one side and the bay and beach on the other. There are excellent spa facilities as well as indoor and outdoor heated pools. The staff are very helpful and speak English as well as French. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others.

What a wonderful place, full of history and uniquely charming- the pool was amazing too! Staff were friendly and we learned a bit of French wartime history, for which we felt proud and grateful.
