피에르 & 바캉스 프리미엄 레지던스 & 스파 울가트

Houlgate is gorgeous. The property is tired, though. Felt a bit "institutional". Disappointing that the pool/spa only opens at 10 and closes at 7 which means you can either have a day out or stay and use the facilities. Not something I'd considered before. Spa was good though.

Memories from the beautiful Normandy Stor och rymlig lägenhet för en familj på 4 vuxna med allt som behövs. Stor balkong med fantastisk utsikt mot staden och havet. Det enda negativa är hårdare sängar än man själva är vana vid.

Nice quiet environment. The condition of the house wasn't very good, painting was getting off and on the outside a wooden beam was rotting in the middle of the doors.

we stayed one week at P&V Houlgate. we booked a cottage for 8 persons, with our family of 4. this was enough space, although not exagerated big. nice pool area and spa. good location for trips in the area (Deauville, Cabourg, Caen). nice and clean park.

As usual a lot depends on what you like. The pros: 1) Price. In shoulder season this is fantastic value. Roughly £40 per night with mode stay cleaning and a Famileast meal delivery for 2. 2) Location. Great views of Houlgate, the sea and surrounding countryside. Quiet site, but out of town. Car preferred, but if you are a walker not essential. Houlgate is a lovely small seaside town. Calmer than Cabourg or Deauville/Trouville. 3) Apartment. Fully equipped for cooking. Good telly. French, German and Italian channels. Great views from balcony. Comfortable bed. In our case upgraded two two shower/bathroom and two toilets, one separate. And bunk bed room for children. We booked a one bed apartment. Nice decor. Lots of storage space. Cleaning kit good. Reasonable cutlery and crockery. 4) Facilities. Fantastic open air pool that was warm enough for me. No gingerly edging into it! Warm water external shower. Lots of sunbeds. 5) Reception/Accrual. Friendly staff. Can use English or French or our stay Italian. Your French will be tolerated, but English sometimes works better! 6) Spa. Did not use, but can access to indoor pool without payment. 7) Extras. The pain and viennoissirie booking service is good. Not cheap but bakery, rather than supermarket, prices. Tip must reserve by 18.00 even though reception open until 19.00. Quality varies, but never poor and those pain aux raisins are Paul Hollywood handshake standard. The Famileat meal service is delivered perfectly packed - note only delivered on some days - see Famileat website. Interesting range of meals. Slightly more than supermarket prices, but more varied. Also good for vegetarians. Saves going shopping so often. Cons. I would stress these are minor and did not worry us. 1) Main bedroom slightly tight for space and with a sloping ceiling on one side. 2) Steep stairs in a Duplex apartment. There is a stair gate- only at the top- to stop you falling down in the dark. 3) Watch out for open kitchen cabinet doors. Mind your head. 4) No oven. Everything else is there and the dishwasher works well. Not a problem for us there is a goid pizzeria for takeaway in Dives sue Met at Port Guillame. 5) Wi-Fi password changed without warning in 2nd week of stay. Easy to get a new one.

Good location. Nice view. Nice outdoor pool. Staff is on the defensive and busy justifying the shortcomings of some problems: garden COCKROACHES are apparently NORMAL and aren’t a concern. Noise from chairs from upper levels units “cannot be helped”. The cleanup before our arrival is poorly done: toilet bowls and garden badly have barely been cleaned. What a pity. Could have done a much better job.
