Stella Maris

Stella Maris offers four double, triple or quadruple rooms, all with a private bathroom, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a sea view. Outdoor spaces vary by room type: some rooms have a balcony, while others have a terrace. Room sizes range from 16 to 30 m², with options for two, three or four people. Every room has a coffee machine, and amenities also include a dining table.

The quadruple room is the largest and combines a large double bed with two single beds. The double rooms differ in size and in whether they have a balcony or terrace. The triple room has a private entrance and a terrace overlooking the sea; it includes a large double bed and a sofa bed. Bathrooms have a shower or bathtub, and some rooms are accessible only by stairs.

The outdoor areas at Stella Maris open directly onto the seafront: you can enjoy a sun terrace, outdoor furniture and an al fresco dining area. The beach is accessible from the property. In the rooms, air conditioning, soundproofing and private bathrooms provide practical comforts after a day on the coast. Free Wi-Fi is available, and the flat-screen TVs let you watch programmes in your room.

The on-site café, tea and coffee-making facilities, and room service for breakfast round out the dining options. A continental breakfast is served in the morning. Vending machines offer snacks and drinks, and wine or champagne may be available. Express check-in and check-out make arrival formalities easier. Pets are allowed on request, and a supplement may apply. The property has no parking.

L’Almanarre stretches along the Hyères coastline, facing the open waters of the Mediterranean. This part of the coast combines beaches, sea views and areas suited to water sports; it suits travellers who want to spend time outdoors, swimming and walking. The scenery changes throughout the day, with sunlight on the sea and sailboats passing by. Plage d’Olbia is 400 m away and Plage de l’Almanarre is 750 m away.

The Olbia Archaeological Seaside Trail lets you explore the coastal heritage on a walk by the sea. Hyères harbour, with its quays and ferry connections to Porquerolles, offers another way to explore the area. Hyères railway station is 3.1 km away and Toulon-Hyères Airport is 2.1 km away. For a trip into town, Hyères old town has narrow streets, squares and landmarks such as the Saint-Paul Collegiate Church. Pesquiers and La Capte beaches extend the options for swimming along the coast.

Spring and the late season are pleasant times to walk and explore the coast with fewer visitors; summer draws more people and is well suited to days at the beach. The wind can pick up along this stretch of coast, which appeals to fans of board sports. You could plan a day around a morning swim, a walk around Olbia, then a crossing to Porquerolles from the harbour. In town, the narrow streets and old buildings offer something else to explore when you want a break from the shore.
