“Grand Thalasso's ocean caveat”

Grand Hôtel Thalasso & Spa is a beautiful beachfront stay — very well-maintained great rooms, a lovely great spa with a good massage plus an indoor pool, a very good lunch, a wonderful right-on-the-beach historic spot, and kind helpful friendly top-notch professional staff. Caveats though: city-view rooms take quite a-lot of road and early-morning delivery noise (ocean-front is a premium different experience), there is no beach service, and parts run a little dated.
