You can stop your search right now, because THIS is where you want to stay! The location cannot be beat! It is literally a 3-minute walk to the beach: out the door, through a secret passage, and across a one-lane road and you are at the little park fronting the beach. It is closer than it appears in the photos. I could easily identify my husband laying on the beach from the living room window of the apartment. The sound of the waves is incredible! And the sunsets!! In June, the sun sets right out the window of the apartment. I cannot imagine a better view.
Plus, it is an easy walk to the Place Clemenceau, where there are lots of restaurants, and Les Halles district, where there are even more restaurants. Tons of shopping. Easy walk to the lighthouse, the aquarium, the Eiffel bridge . . . Its all within walking distance.
Do be sure to bring your own amenities -- like shampoo and shower gel, and maybe a towel for laying on the beach. We didn't cook at the apartment, but the kitchen looked adequatley furnished. (However, there is no freezer.) All of the furniture was comfortable and clean.
We will be returning to Geoffrey's apartment again next year!
