We chose this condo because it offered a covered balcony with a great ocean view, a beach that was right down the steps, and many dining options nearby. ( hard to find all 3 on the French side) As the photos show, there is also a common balcony right above the beach with two tables and chairs, as well as a sitting area with a few chairs.
This is definitely one of the best sections of Grand Case Beach. The water is not too choppy, the beach is fairly wide, and there are no obstacles in the water - as you go further south, there are stretches where there are rocks in the water near the shore, as you go north, the beach gets pretty narrow. Ephraim, who lives onsite, puts out very nice lounge chairs and umbrellas each morning, and takes in the chairs and umbrellas every morning. ( you keep the extremely comfy beach cushions in your apartment when you are not using the chairs, and just bring them back and forth once per day ) As best I can tell, there are enough chairs and umbrellas for each guest, so there is no need to get there first thing in the morning. Another plus, and minus, is that it is right next to the Rainbow Cafe. The plus is that they offer food and drink service to the beach, and they were more than willing to serve us. On prior trips, we would go to a different beach each morning. We only did that twice this trip because it is hard to pass up such a beautiful beach steps from our door, with great chairs, and full bar service.
The apartment is a nice size, and well equipped, and separate ac for the living area and bedroom, and the bed was extremely comfortable.
The downside is the Rainbow Cafe. As other reviewers have noted they have a party every Monday night. We met other couples who had been staying a few weeks, and they said they would go to a casino till 2:30, because the noise was very loud. We just stayed in a hotel in a different town that night. The bar also had a band on Wed night, but don't know how regularly they do that. It was pretty loud till 12:30 even with earplugs, I couldn't sleep, though my wife did. Met Robert, an owner, he is great and says he is still trying to work something out with the bar about noise issues.
The location in Grand Case is great - it is few minutes walk to a couple dozen restaurants, bakery, and a food store, and in less than 10 minutes, you can walk the full length of Grand Case restaurant row. Overall a great place, if they can do something about the noise it would be perfect.
