Gilles was very welcoming and responsive to all communications - super easy to work with. A few things were rearranged, but the apartment was just as lovely as it appeared in the pictures. My friends and I celebrated New Years here, cooked a huge dinner and then walked 3 minutes down to the beach, and it was just perfect. There is also a Starbuck, movie theater (with movies in english), a grocery store, and a pharmacy all within one block of the apartment. The location is ideal for a beach/city vacation. Lastly, the wifi on the main level worked wonderful, even with several people connected (very important for an international traveler)!
