Résidence Pierre & Vacances Le Domaine du Bois de la Grée
8/10 Good
"This is a pleasant and friendly accommodation in a lovely part of France. The duplex apartment we rented was nicely appointed with a super balcony view across the shared woodland and sporting facilities. The pools and other facilities were a short walk away, as was the car park. We had no trouble finding a parking space throughout our stay. The apartment was completely great for our family of 4 - 2 adults and 2 kids. The decoration was perhaps a bit tired, and we found it difficult dealing with the heat during a very hot May in Pornichet. On arrival we were met by excellent reception staff who made us feel welcome. Throughout our stay reception provided great recommendations for local activities as well as things to do on site. Although there is a Carrefour just 800 metres away, and honestly you could walk into town too, I don’t think you’d want to stay at this accommodation without access to a car - the region has some great attractions to visit. Nantes airport is only 1hr drive and therefore Pornichet is really very easy to access. We love France and Breton culture - I hope we’ll be back soon."
"The property is in a great location. It's right across the square from the train station and there are many restaurants and shops nearby. It's easy walking distance to the beach and to the outdoor market that takes place on Wednesday and Saturday mornings. The property is very clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. Sylvie is wonderful! She helped me with rescheduling my hotel in Paris after I couldn't get a train on the day I was supposed to leave. She really went above and beyond to help and made many phone calls to the hotel and Expedia for me to get things rearranged. I will definitely stay there again when I visit Pornichet. Thanks Sylvie!!"
"Bien situé à quelques pas de la plage de Pornichet. Il y a un stationnement intérieur payant mais nous avons trouvé de la place gratuitement sur la rue. Le petit déjeuner est standard pour un hôtel ibis. Le personnel est très courtois et agréable. Nous avons bien apprécié notre séjour à Pornichet"
"The room and facilities are fine but it was spoiled one morning my large groups
Who destroyed the breakfast buffet and the hotel could not keep up with demand "
"The lounge and garden areas are lovely. Our bedroom was rather "eclectic" in that the loo and the shower seemed to have been fitted into spaces that must have originally been alcove/wardrobe spaces!
Everything was clean - and we were only there for one overnight stop so not a problem - but would not choose a standard double room for a longer stay (was the only room left available we made our last minute booking).
But staff friendly - good (paid) parking - which we are glad we took as public car park had a market the next day (Saturday) and we would have been towed away! "
"This place has seen better days but the location next to the Sainte Marguerite beach is great. The reception gives you some toilet paper and dishwasher detergent once you arrive but once you’ve used it, it’s on you to buy more. You also have to clean the place and take the used bedding off the bed and used towel downstairs before departing. There is no WiFi in the apartment. It’s available only at the reception and restaurant. Overall, coming from the US, our family stay was okay but lack amenities you usually find in hotels. We didn’t necessarily feel welcome. "
"We stayed as a family of four, and had a wonderful time. We’d never been to Pornichet and didn’t know where to stay, but couldn’t have been more pleasantly surprised. The hotel was clean and the facilities were good, and the staff were all so friendly and helpful! The location of the hotel is excellent, very close to the beach and to local hospitality spots. We would definitely visit again and would recommend to others!"
"Fantastic property, amazing apartment with beach view, well appointed and right across the street from the beach. Owners are there to welcome you and help you with anything. We had a great time and will definitely be back. "
