About this property

A balcony over the sea. A room in town

Ideally located in the South district of Marseille, in the 7th arrondissement. Next to Valmer Park and the Silvan theater. A few meters from the coast and the beaches.
On the first floor of a villa. Nice room with balcony and sea view, bathroom, toilet and independent entrance.
A stone's throw from the sea. Five minutes from bus stops serving the city center. Five minutes from shops, restaurants for all tastes and all budgets.
Picturesque setting that did not fail to inspire writers and filmmakers ...
During your stay at this guesthouse, you're just a quick walk from La Corniche.
  • Just a 4-minute drive from Old Port of Marseille and 7 minutes from Velodrome Stadium

INCREDIBLE
"The room with a balcony overlooking the sea" is a mere hint of how wonderful this second floor studio space is in Marseille. The location is extremely safe and convenient to walk to public transport to access all areas of the city and beyond. Quiet, sunny, artsy, with an amazing view through tall shuttered french windows across an idylic setting of old world Marseille. The studio comes with a comfortable bed, desk/lamps,small library and fully equipped with a mini kitchen, but plenty of reasons to eat out at the many local restaurants/bars and cafes.Walking distance to amazing coastal areas loved by the French for swimming and sunbathing. And the bests hosts ever. We cannot wait to return.

The room was much bigger than I thought it would be. Very beautiful property and view of the ocean. Incredible area, close to local beaches. Close to restaurants and supermarket. The hosts are wonderful; Ray gave me a walking tour of the local beaches and looking points. I’d love to come back!

Dandy apartment, great view of the sea
The space is beautifully decorated, in a great location, with lots of room. Has the expected amenities plus some (full coffee service, utensils, plates, microwave, small refrigerator) - helping us to be comfortable during our 6 night stay. The view of the sea from the terrace is amazing, as the rooms are up a flight of stairs. Hosts are wonderful people, so welcoming, kind and gracious! Nice neighborhood, with easy access to main street that has the bus, shops and restaurants. The bus is a direct route to Vieux Port, for sightseeing and the metro stop. The highlight of our stay in Marseille!

Perfect place to stay in Marseille
If you’re looking for a great spot to walk around and discover Marseille, this is for you! The property is conveniently located near a bus stop, beaches, and walking distance to the Vieux-Port. The hosts, Ray and Claude, are extremely friendly and helped us make the most out of our stay. They even let us leave our bags with them past check out so we could keep exploring. If we’re ever in the area again, we will be back! 10/10 overall :)

Beautiful place in a great location
I highly recommend this place! The hosts are kind, location <5 min from bus stops, and a beautiful view from the balcony. Our trip to Marseille was as great as it was because of this property. Multiple restaurants and beaches within walking distance and all in a safe part of town. We had an amazing time here!

Agréable séjour
Nous avons vraiment apprécié l'hospitalité exceptionnelle de Ray et Claude. L'invitation à l'apéro, les recommandations de randonnées et de lieux remarquables, la vue fantastique du balcon sur la mer et les calanques ont rendu plus beau notre séjour. L'appartement - une oasis dans la turbulente Marseille – est très propre. La mer est accessible à pied et les restaurants, cafés et magasins du quartier ne sont qu'à quelques minutes. Un grand merci à Ray et Claude, nous reviendrons avec plaisir.

Logement parfait
situé à 3min à pied de la mer le logement est idéalement localisé. Vous trouverez des restaurants et commerces de proximité sur la corniche à quelques centaines de mètres. Ray et Claude sont des hôtes très accueillants, arrangeants (nous avions un départ tardif) et soucieux du bien être de leurs locataires. Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour chez eux et nous reviendrons sans doute !

Unkonventionell mit ganz viel Charme
Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit in der Unterkunft. Es handelt sich um ein Zimmer mit Doppelbett, Schreibtisch und Regalen. Im Zimmer selbst befindet sich zudem ein Wasserkocher, Besteck und Geschirr. In einem weiteren Raum befindet sich die Dusche, ein Waschbecken sowie Mikrowelle und Nespresso-Maschine. Ein kleiner Kühlschrank ist ebenfalls vorhanden. Die Toilette befindet sich in einem separaten Raum. An das Schlafzimmer grenzt ein Balkon an, von dem man einen wunderbaren Blick aufs Meer hat. Ein Herd, Kochplatten oder ähnliches ist nicht (!) vorhanden. Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und individuell eingerichtet. Die Vermieter sind unglaublich lieb und haben uns bei der Ankunft viele Tipps zu Unternehmungen in der Region gegeben. Von der Unterkunft erreichte man in etwas 5 Minuten (zu Fuß) mehrere kleine Badestellen, den Bus, kleine Cafés und Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Wenn wir wieder in Marseille sind, buchen wir die Unterkunft gerne noch einmal!
