AC Juan les Pins

"3-4 km from Golfe Juan Port there is another center that was unknown to us, practically 1 km from Juan Les Pins, Antibes. A large residence of about 200 apartments with a pool. Les Pins Bleus residence, well-maintained, with a security guard. The gates are closed at night. We had a large parking space underground, near the elevator. A large "Utile" grocery store in the center 30 m away and other shops, hairdresser, bakery, etc. Crossing a huge and beautiful park (ExFlora), you reach the sea 100 m away by passing through the railway underpass. Beautiful beach, narrow but long, fine white sand, and you can walk in 20 m or more until the water is up to your shoulders, sandy bottom."

"It is always an immense pleasure, when I return to France, to stay again at my favorite hotel on the French Riviera. It must be said that this establishment is remarkably well managed and perfectly supervised by its General Manager, Mr. Michael Koettig, who always takes the time to come and chat with his guests to personally ensure that their stay goes as well as possible. I always feel wonderfully welcomed as soon as I arrive at this establishment. Élisabeth is as welcoming and attentive as ever. She always has a kind word and does everything possible to ensure that my check-in is done quickly and under the best conditions. David, a young man truly passionate about his work, assumes his responsibilities with great rigor and professionalism. He is always ready to help guests and shows remarkable responsiveness whenever assistance is needed. I would also like to thank Christian, Duty Manager, a true artist of the House. It is always a great pleasure to be able to chat with him. I would also like to thank the following people who work at the front desk for their welcome and kindness: Véronique Léane Lidia The Concierge Desk The concierges are always exceptionally helpful. A big thank you to: Frank 1 Frank 2 Antoine Breakfast I would also like to thank the entire breakfast team for their kindness, their attentiveness, and the quality of their service: Alisa Esmet Bernard Paul Medhi The restaurant Le Comptoir des Sables The team at Le Comptoir des Sables is dynamic, young, and extremely professional. I am particularly demanding when it comes to gastronomy, but also when it comes to service. Since I discovered this establishment a few years ago, I dine there every evening during my stays at AC Ambassadeur Juan-les-Pins. The welcome is always extremely warm, thanks in particular to Florian, Food & Beverage Manager, a young man who leads his team with great professionalism, rigor, and elegance. His assistant, Elena, is always consistent. She truly reigns like a hostess, taking care of her guests with great attention, while ensuring that her team provides impeccable service. His team is composed of Christophe, Luca, and Kylian, three young men passionate about their work, always smiling, who serve you with great elegance, enthusiasm, and friendliness. I greatly appreciate this type of service, which unfortunately tends to be lost in many establishments in the South of France. If the service is on par with a high-end restaurant, the quality of the dishes is just as much so. It must be said that Chef Alexis Jugier and his assistant Yoann Baron form a truly exceptional duo. It is often said that perfection does not exist… Well, at Le Comptoir des Sables, I can tell you that the dishes are simply succulent. The combination of ingredients is particularly subtle, sophisticated, and perfectly mastered. It is a real treat for the taste buds, but not only that. The plating of the dishes is a true masterpiece. The presentation, magnificent and particularly meticulous, already gives you, even before the first bite, an idea of what you are going to discover. And the flavors are fully up to the visual. I particularly recommend the house-prepared foie gras, which is absolutely excellent and of great finesse. It is probably one of the best foie gras I have ever tasted. The duck breast is cooked to perfection and the beef is of very high quality. Over the course of my stays, I have had the opportunity to try a bit of everything on the menu and, quite honestly, the dishes are all more excellent than the others. I also recommend the ice creams and sorbets, which are simply delicious. The restaurant is also part of the Green Key program and fully respects the commitments linked to this approach. The products used are of high quality, especially the organic products, and each dish is prepared with a lot of passion. The decor is particularly warm, while remaining understated, elegant, and refined, without ever being stuffy. It is a true delight to dine every time in this establishment, where the quality of service is perfectly on par with that of the cuisine. In my eyes, Le Comptoir des Sables is probably one of the best restaurants in Juan-les-Pins. I also recommend that you come and discover the lunch specials offered, at a particularly attractive price and with remarkable value for money. Housekeeping A big thank you also to the entire Housekeeping team. The cleanliness of the hotel is impeccable and the rooms are always perfectly maintained and carefully prepared. I would particularly like to thank Valérie, the Housekeeper, who was exceptional upon my arrival and who truly took my preferences and habits into consideration. I also encountered a small technical problem in my room during my stay. The technical team intervened immediately, and I would like to thank Abdallah in particular for his efficiency, his smile, and his kindness. In conclusion Once again, a huge thank you to the entire AC Ambassadeur team for once again making my stay so pleasant and wonderful. It is precisely all these little touches, this professionalism, this kindness, and this constant desire to please the guests that make this establishment such a special place in my eyes. I am always happy to return, and I must already confess to you that I look forward to seeing you again next year. With all my congratulations and my sincere thanks to all the teams."

"I would not stay at this hotel. This is not an acceptable Marriott branded hotel which is why we chose it initially and thought it would be a safe choice. On any long vacation your hotel is your oasis at the end of the day but walking in you can tell straight away that it has been poorly maintained. Old furniture, in need of painting and below 3 star standard. We had 2 rooms and both were average at best. I will say that the front office staff were excellent especially Veronique who helped us initially. It is sub standard and in need of a major renovation and it doesn’t do its location in Antibes justice. The Airconditioning only just works. Our room initially had a portable unit in one corner as the ducted system hadn’t been fixed. It was too noisy to stay so we were offered another room which was ok but its air also was faulty. Plenty of mould around the Airconditioning vents and in the bathrooms. Sinks cracked, and a regular sewerage smell coming from the drains. The pool area has broken furniture and is generally in poor condition, a non functioning toilet and the towels offered are basically a large hand towel. The area is riddled with rusted metal frames and just old fixtures. The breakfast is poorly laid out with foods in multiple locations causing guests to criss cross the areas to find what they want. Very disappointed. Marriott, get your act together."
