Be ready to run for a deck chair

This place can only be rated average, swimming pool is cold despite hot and nice weather which is a problem when you have small kids. Bigger problem is that there is a lack of deck chairs at the swimming pool, in fact there should be twice as much. As the pool area only opens at 10 h in the morning (!) people were lining up 15 min before door opening in order to run for a chair where they could place their towels. Those who could not find a place ended up sitting in the grass in between the fence and the road. Totally crazy. At 6.30pm pool is closed which is way too early in the midst of the summer. There is nothing for kids, no babysitting. In fact we ended up at the beach every day which is about 1h driving.

Easy to get to (40 mins fro Nice airport). Cannes is 30 mins away and St Tropez the same. Mountain villages drop dead charming. Seillans is one of the best villages in France apparently, dating back to the dark ages. Some of the views from these mountain villages take your breath away.

The resort is well thought out in pastel coulours and scented bushes and trees. The hotel and restaurant are Ok but very very expensive due partly to the euro exchange rate.
Reception is mediocre as far as help goes.
Villas/apartments are clean and spacious.
Pool is perfect for families being safe, large and clean.
MUST rent a car though. Totally impractical without. Lots to do and see. St Tropez surprisingly 'unspoilt' making it a pleasant experience.
If you are looking for a rural unspoilt beautiful part of the world - stay here.

We booked this because we love the south of france, and thought the resort would be child friendly. Now, I know October is low season, but the place was dead, and like the Yul Bryner film Westworld, the only noise we heard was golf buggys zooming about the streets with staff on board, changing the sheets for the apparently imaginary guests.

The "villa" was nice enough, a terraced house, but the "private garden" was an overgrown bit of open land, that our toddler could not play on. The "baby pack" that we paid for was not there and we had to argue to get it, the travel cot had no instruction (yes, we have one of our own, but this required a degree to erect), and as reception closed at 5pm (no great loss as they were less than helpful), we got a girl from the bar to come and advise. We couldn;t get the cooker to work, but a maintenance guy appeared and knowingly pushed some buttons. Why they don;t have clear basic instructions, we don't know (we asked, but they think that a stack of manufacturers brochures shoved in a drawer suffices). Then, after a few days, water from the shower came though the ceiling, and we were moved two doors down where miraculously, there was a welcome pack, and basic utensils that had not been in the original villa. Spooky

Unperturbed, we sought out the facilities. The poolside snack bar was closed (wrong time of year), the main pool was freezing (fair enough, it is not heated), and the "spa" pool did not allow toddlers. We tried to find the "kids club"...........but it was closed, wrong time of year.

The restaurant was too upmarket to sit with a noisy baby, so we ate in.

The reception area had next to no info re local attractions and it was not clear you could order baguettes etc from reception, to uplift the next day.

So, in summary, don;t go out of season (especially with kids), do make sure you know the area because you won;t get any help from reception, and if you see Yul Bryner................run

Nice resort with villas of different styles made to look like a small village with fountains and small squares in the local styles and colours. Villa slept 8 and was adapted to accomodate disabled visitors. The pool area was good with some adjacent sun beds on grass a short way away from the pool for a quieter visit. The restaurant did their biggest trade at lunch time when a buffet was served. Eat in the restaurant once in the evening and it was OK. No shop on site but supermarkets close by. Bread and croissants could be ordered from Reception for pick up the following morning.

Altogether a good site but be warned - the South of France is hellishly expensive at the moment with the weak pound. £3.50 for a coffee, £5.00 for an ice cream.

  • Liked — Lovely villa
  • Disliked — Restaurant could have been better. A shop on site would have been useful

I've just returned from a week stay at Domaine de Fayence, we stayed in a four bedroom villa with swimming pool and I can sum up the entire holiday in one word - outstanding.

The resort is just 40 minutes easy drive from Nice Airport, the entire way is incredibly well signposted and its just not possible to make a wrong turn.

The villa made the holiday for us, it was so spacious, meticulously kept, well furnished even down to spoons, cups, plates etc.,. There was a massive terrace area with outdoor dining table and lots of chairs, the pool was divine again with ample sun loungers, a delightful, well maintained garden area with lots of grass and of course a built in barbeque. The beds were surprisingly comfortable - a small but very important aspect to any holiday.!!

Fayence village is about five minutes away by car, there is a choice of five supermakets again within a five minute drive and in terms of being close to everything that the Provence & Cote d'Azur area's have to offer it just couldn't be better. About 20-30 minutes drive from Frejus, St. Raphael and some other coastal resorts, about an hour away from Monaco and a little under an hour from St. Tropez, 20 miles from Grasse - an absolute must see.

The resort itself offers a bar area, restaurant, and Decleor Spa as well as Aqua Fitness Room (didn't try it :-)).

I'd highly recommend this resort for families and anyone wanting a relaxing holiday in the South of France.
