Très Bel Appartement aux Goudes

Six kilometres south of Marseille's Vieux-Port, Très Bel Appartement aux Goudes occupies Boulevard Alexandre Delabre in Les Goudes — a calanque-edged fishing hamlet at the end of the coastal road, with rocky coves steps away and no through traffic beyond the village. A beachfront setting suits couples and families chasing Marseille's wild southern coast without city noise.

The four-star property sits directly on the water with free WiFi and family rooms available; check-in opens at 16:00, giving arriving guests time to reach the Calanques National Park trailheads before dusk. Non-smoking rooms throughout keep the sea-air atmosphere consistent.

Les Goudes has no supermarket — the nearest provisions are in Callelongue or a 20-minute drive north into the 8th arrondissement. That remoteness is the point: the village draws divers, hikers, and calanque kayakers who want distance from the centre.
