Enjoy the sunshine, one of the best in France, the sea with direct access from the hotel, the swimming pool and the terrace lounge.
The hotel offers 11 rooms and suites with exceptional views of the sea. Each room has a unique name: Mica, Jade, Garnet, etc. Some rooms have a private terrace. The soundproofing is remarkable. We also love the king size bed with memory foam, the blackout curtains and the very efficient air conditioning.
In the morning, enjoy a fantastic breakfast including a choice of Malongo coffees, teas, hot chocolate, pastries and breads from local shops, cakes, French toast, puddings, minute-cooked eggs, sweet and savory products from local producers. Fruit is cut and squeezed daily. Yogurts, butters and cheeses come from crèmerie Bordier.
During the day or in the evening, relax in 1929, the Splendid's living room, with tea, cocktails, a selection of Ray Jane wines from 1288 and champagnes from the Duval Leroy family house.
The hotel offers direct access to the sandy beach of Renécros. You can also take a dip in the heated, private indoor pool. For a moment of relaxation, take advantage of the hammam, solarium and fitness room. At the end of the day, admire the sunset from one of the hotel's 4 private terraces. A change of scenery guaranteed!
If you want to get away from the hotel, Le Splendid has its own private speedboat, the Flyer 8. You can book it for a swim, a sports outing or a romantic aperitif on the water. The centre of Bandol is only a 10-minute walk away. You can go to the market, play at the casino, visit the wineries or go to the wonderful Paul Ricard islands.
