Résidence Pierre & Vacances Cap Marine

This is a self catering resort. Like similar places in France the accomodation is limited (e.g. bedroom has two single beds and that's about it). But we knew what to expect. Would not recommend this as a unit suitable for more than two people. Everything you need for a week stay, sufficiently equipped and well maintained except for a few elements showing the resorts age. The outdoor pool would be good in the summer and the location just across the road from the sea is great {a short walk in the evening can be rewarded with beautiful sunsets]. Staff welcoming and efficient. Note that the front desk is not manned 24/7 so pay attention to the check in instructions ahead of your arrival, which are clear. Plenty to see in the area if you are happy to drive. This is a fishing town so parts are a bit "industrial" but don't let that put you off. The resort is well located for the sea and away from the port. Yet it is a short walk into town which has a Boulangerie (of course) and a well stocked (if more expensive) supermarket and two excellent market days. Plenty of amenities if you want to stay in the resort. Much more available in Quimper (but avoid rush hours of course). If you are used to US style resorts you will be disappointed; you could fir the entire apartment into the lounge of most US apartments. But it is clean, well managed and located so we would recommend it.

Habitués des résidences Pierre et vacances, nous ne sommes jamais décus par l'emplacement. A 50 m à peine de la plage! Les services proposés sont bien (table de ping pong, piscine...). Les extérieurs sont bien entretenus. Gros bémol: l'état de l'appartement lorsque nous sommes arrivés (1ère fois que cela nous arrive). Il n'avait pas été nettoyé depuis le depart des anciens vacanciers, voire plusieurs semaines. Des poils de chien à n'en plus finir sur les matelas, collés sur les rebords des fenêtres et sur la terrasse. Un biscuit pour chien retrouvé collé sur le matelas du canapé lit. Tas de poussière derrière le canapé, sur les luminaires de la chambre etc... On nous explique qu'il s'agit d'un manque de personnel et de compétence du personnel, mais est ce une raison pour laisser un appartement dans cet état avant l'arrivée des vacanciers? La satisfaction du client doit être une priorité. Très déçu sur ce point là mais nous ne nous arrêterons pas sur cette expérience et reviendrons en espérant cette fois que le service sera satisfaisant.

Nice place to explore south-west Brittany. Nice garden. Usual Pierre et Vacances standard, but the apartment was a little cramped. The parking lots are narrow and partly with confusing markings. Should you have neighbours, that are neither skinny nor careful you might get your car scratched when they get in or out of their car. I got both scratches and a small dent. At least the markings should be fixed properly.
