Pointe aux Biches Holidays from £1,246

The rooms are quite worn and would benefit from refurbishment, and there was some mould visible on the bathroom sealant, which was disappointing. Overall cleanliness could be improved, especially in the bathroom areas. The hotel is next to a very noisy street, and the windows are not soundproof enough, so you can hear almost every car, van, or lorry passing by, which makes it hard to relax. Breakfast was fairly average with a limited selection and nothing particularly memorable. However, the dinner was very good, with tasty dishes and good portions that stood out compared with the rest of the stay. There is no direct beach access, which may be inconvenient for guests hoping to walk straight from the hotel to the sea. The pool is very small with only a limited number of sun loungers, so it can be difficult to find a place to relax during busier times. With some updates to the rooms, better attention to cleanliness, improved soundproofing, and better pool and beach access, this could be a much nicer place to stay.

Beach and staff were amazing

Service was great, they knew we would check in late at night and they had complimentary sandwiches awaiting us. Room was nice not really waterfront but nice view nevertheless. Breakfast served over the sea.

The receptionist, named Jeremy, is bald with a beard. He's terrible, disrespectful, and rude. He's damaging the chalet's reputation. He accused me multiple times of taking two drinks from the minibar, and I told him repeatedly that I hadn't taken anything, but he wouldn't believe me. He's impolite, unprofessional, and a liar. The driver called him to ask if the road to the chalet was safe and good, and Jeremy replied that it was unsafe, bad, and difficult to reach. When we took the road, it turned out to be safe and good! Jeremy ruined my vacation and made my wife and me unhappy. I paid a lot of money to have a pleasant trip, but he spoiled it. His attitude is disgusting and rude. He should be fired from the chalet so that it doesn't lose more customers. I'm going to change chalets and never return to Chalet Shamral. There are other beautiful chalets in the same area with respectful and courteous staff. The waiter at the restaurant, named Kafan, is wonderful, helpful, and respectful. The porter, named Abdul Hakim, is polite, respectful, and excellent. I will send this message to all tourist websites, hotels, and tour operators. You must buy enough water before arriving at the chalet because there is no grocery store nearby, and the chalet's restaurant closes early and is very expensive. You will need water at night.
