The apartment of Stephen and Mary is located in a central location of Port Grimaud, just behind the main square (Place du Marche' ). The balcony is right above the canals and bridges allowing you to watch the passage of boats and tourists who admire the area (the bridge just below us was the subject of continuous 'poses' for souvenir photos ...). The collection of the keys took place successfully and we greatly appreciated being autonomous in accessing the apartment without intermediaries. Everything was where it was written to us that it had to be, the instructions were very detailed, we just didn't understand which was the resident parking pass (.. it's the long card with the hook at the end ...). We didn't get in the car to unload the luggage: on Saturday there are a lot of people and we had doubts because of the car and the narrow and high bridges to cross, but there was no problem: the visitors' parking is free for the first half hour, so we could park temporarily there, enter the house, retrieve the pass and park the car in the resident parking lot ...
Since the apartment is centrally located, everything you need is close at hand: restaurants, small shops, a small supermarket right next to the church ... Towards Saint Tropez there is a very large supermarket (Geant Casino'). Attention there is always a lot of traffic towards Saint Tropez ...
The 'grand plage' is within walking distance, while the 'petit plage' can be reached by the 'bateau' (note: the right one for the pass that is in the house is the 'bateau' black ...). You can indulge yourself in visiting the beautiful villages in the interior of the area (Ramatuelle, Gassin, Grimaud, ...) or the beautiful beaches nearby or even more distant .... we stayed at the beautiful Cap Taillat unfortunately remained victim of a bad fire in the past, but still fantastic!
We also walked a lot from the Grand Plage of Port Grimaud through the nearby campsites and on the beach towards Saint Maxime. We also walked on a part of the famous 'Sentier du littoral' starting from Tahiti Plage up towards Saint Tropez with beautiful sea views ...
In short, having as a point of support this house with its particularity and comfort, the things to see, visit, do ... are many and close at hand. Thanks Stephen and Mary ... also for phone calls in Italian :-)) Thank you very much and see you again !! Laura & Mario
