Camargue Scuba Diving Vacations

Les Bords du Mer exceeded every expectation. The staff are exceptional — warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment you arrive. The property is boutique with stunning views. The food and drinks are excellent. Highly recommend.

Rooms were clean, we had two doubles rooms, 212 & 214 and one shower could have been upgraded. The bar was lovely & reception. The staff including the ones cleaning were all professional, curious and super helpful. The carpets are a bit dated but all in the place was clean. We enjoyed staying there & easy to get to, & had that ‘old fashioned grand’ look about the hotel that we loved. Will come back! Vina & friends

We arrived to a room that wasn’t ready at our confirmed 4pm check-in. The bathroom dispensers were empty — we had to call down to have them filled. On arrival a charcuterie and cheese board was brought to us; no one mentioned it cost €66 until it appeared on the bill. The real problem was the heat. With the AC set to 18°C, my own thermometer read 28°C overnight and 26°C the next day. Two nights of barely sleeping. When I raised it with the manager the following morning, she was dismissive from the outset — no apology, no goodwill, just an insistence that nothing was wrong and that 18°C isn’t realistic in a Provençal summer. I never asked for 18. I asked for a room cooler than the air outside at night. The only thing offered in person was a €200 suite upgrade. Paying more for air conditioning I’d already booked wasn’t something I was willing to do. A free same-category room came later via Expedia; we’d already unpacked and stayed put. Equipment fails. The response to it is what separates a five-star property from a nice building. Avoid in summer unless heat doesn’t bother you.
