Heating and a fan complete the general amenities. The beach is accessible from the hotel, and the outdoor areas offer space to enjoy a meal or relax on the terrace.

Hyères stretches between its old town, coastal neighbourhoods and the Giens Peninsula. The coastline around the hotel is characterised by sandy beaches, marinas and natural areas associated with the Pesquiers salt marshes. This part of the town suits travellers who want to spend time by the water, walk along the shore or explore the seascapes of the Var. The historic centre, with its narrow streets and old buildings, offers a different atmosphere a few kilometres from the coast.

Pesquiers Beach is 40 m from the hotel, and Bona Beach is 200 m away. Port Saint-Pierre, with its quays and pleasure boats, is 520 m away; it is also a starting point for exploring the Hyères Islands. Hyères railway station is 4.3 km away and Toulon-Hyères Airport is 950 m away. The Olbia archaeological underwater trail offers a chance to discover the coastal heritage and remains associated with the ancient Greek city. Visitors can also head to the centre of Hyères to explore its historic streets and see Saint-Paul Collegiate Church.

Spring and the late season are pleasant times to walk along the coast and explore the peninsula, with fewer visitors than in the height of summer. In summer, beaches and water sports take centre stage; it is best to plan outings early in the day during the busiest periods. A day can combine swimming, a walk around the salt marshes and a visit to the heritage sites of the old town. The islands of Port-Cros and Levant also offer Mediterranean scenery to discover on a boat trip.
