MARSEILLE VIEUX PORT: SPACIOUS & COZY DUPLEX APARTMENT

Nestled between the Opera house and the harbor of Marseille, this prime location offers every imaginable convenience: transportation, walking areas, a fish market, direct access to the islands of Frioul and Chateau D’If, numerous shopping, and some of the city’s most noteworthy restaurants.
Located in the Vieux Port district, this sunny and sprawling duplex apartment is approximately 1290 square feet and currently configured as 2 bedrooms with an upper level and an outdoor balcony offering a breathtaking view of the harbor and the Central Plaza, a charming Italian square. With a brand new bathroom, a well-equipped kitchen with top line appliances, a dining room with soaring ceilings, Provençal floor tiles and large beams, this space was designed to be luxurious and theatrical.
We have focused on every detail: from softness of the pillows, to the comfort of the couch, to the richness of the bath towels… While the apartment is modern, great care is put into the décor reflecting a Mediterranean style.

Perfect place to stay & explore Marseille
This was a great light & spacious apartment, very clean & well appointed. Loved the mezzanine bedroom. Had the advantage of double glazing which was a must for us at night as it is a vibrant city into the small hours. The views of the square & the marina were amazing & it was a a great base to explore Marseille by foot & by boat. The host kept in touch & made the whole process of arriving & leaving very smooth. We will definitely be back to stay again.

Excellent location and home
My husband and 12 year old son enjoyed our one week stay in Marseille at this apartment. Yes, it is on the top floor requiring climbing up stairs at the end of the tiring day but well worth the accommodation. The air conditioning was very welcomed after the end of a long day. My son loved the loft area and claimed it as his room. The upstairs was definitely hotter but there was a fan to help with keeping it cool. My husband and I opted to the lower floor bedroom for temperature reasons. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable. The view is incredible. There were nearby eateries and markets. the home is well appointed and very comfortable. The bed was a bit more firm than preferred but still slept well. I would highly recommend but just be forewarned about the climb up the stairs. We would stay here again. Also the check in process was very smooth and Kenya was very communicative and easy to contact to update her on our arrival to Marseille. The check out process was very easy as well.

In the heart of Marseille Old Port
This is a nice property in a great location. I likely would have selected a different property for our stay in Marseille had I understood the nature of the vertical climb required to access the apartment: the 4+ flights of stairs that you have to scale to reach the front door are quite difficult (and we are physically fit!). I would also comment that the apartment floor plan is a bit unusual. The loft is also difficult to access (another steep ascent). I can't imagine that this would be a comfortable apartment stay for more than 2 guests. With that said, we had a nice stay - a number of very good restaurants within 50 meters of the front door!

A great find! We'd love to return..
We (2 adults and a teen) were extremely happy with this apartment, the photos may not do the place complete justice. It offers an amazing view and it has an amazing location (in addition to the obvious, la navette maritime 3 min walk from the building took us to L'Estaque (North, for kayaking) and to La Pointe Rouge and La Goude (South, for e-biking in the calanques) all in within another 5-10 minutes walk from the destination port. Totally unexpected and a treat in itself as we opted not to rent a car. Finally, the apartment itself was absolutely magical: in an old building with nice niches and the mezzanine that made our teen happy to take possession of. Another plus, it had everything, the kitchen was all equipped, an extra touch was the dryer! Yes, it works! Well, the touch... dryer for me/coffee machine for my husband. :) Grocery stores and restaurants practically just out of the building. And, I can go on: the communication with Marc was great, getting the keys easy! For us, the stairs too were amusing - great practice before hiking. Seriously, not for people with mobility or heart problems, and ... they could make you buy croissants for breakfast on your way up the evening before, ha ha totally not French, but we had a blast. BTW we are not in top shape despite all sporty things we claimed we did, surely we were not fit when we arrived, so if we could do it, you can too and the place is totally worth it!

My family and I had an amazing visit to Marseille, and Marc's apartment was the perfect place to stay! The home was spacious, clean and centrally located to restaurants, groceries, attractions, the port, metro and bus lines. Marc and his local contracts were friendly and knowledgeable; the check in and out processes were easy and communication was timely. Honestly, we couldn't have picked a better place to stay!

Absolutely the most perfect location ever. Minutes from everything and the restaurant options are endless. It was easy to shop around and drop off our finds back at the apartment to lighten our load and keep exploring. By the end of our stay we felt like locals. We were initially there for a concert at the Orange Velodrome, which also proved very easy to get to via the metro. The only note to mention is that it is on the 4eme Etage and there is not an elevator. Being I am the sort to always take the stairs, we weren't impacted much by the climb. If you are fit and travel light fear not - for this is your place. I will admit, I had some trouble getting my heavy suitcase down for our final ride to the airport, but that was my fault for all the amazing shopping. The owner and hosts are fabulous as well. Communicative, helpful and knowledgable. Thank you!

My wife and I enjoyed our 2-week stay in Marc’s apartment. Although in our 70’s and with heavy luggage, we managed to climb the four flights of stairs (106 steps) on our arrival and, after a few days, almost got used to it. Air conditioning was real plus during the heat wave! Hard to beat the location.

Conference and Holiday in Marseille
We enjoyed this large comfortable apartment in the heart of Marseille. Despite its location it was very quiet. Bakeries, restaurants and shops are a short walk, as is the market in the Old Port. There is even a cool hardware store on the ground floor of the building. The apartment is on the 4th floor (5th floor if you are from North America) so it is best suited to people who are comfortable climbing 5 full sets of stairs.

Superb Apartment and Location
We enjoyed our stay in this apartment immensely. It would be impossible to find a more perfect location. It is steps away from the Vieux Port and is right in the center of a vibrant area of the old town of Marseille. There are literally hundreds of restaurants, other eating places, and bars within a few minutes walk. We were overwhelmed by the number of them and by the very excellent food. There is a grocery store and boulangerie right outside the apartment and a vast array of shops of every type in the immediate vicinity. The apartment is also a very short distance away from bus stops, the metro stop, and taxis. We didn't use public transportation very much, though, since the apartment is ideally situated for walking. The apartment itself was perfect for us also. We were a group of three friends and used the sofa sleeper in addition to the two bedrooms. One bedroom is completely enclosed and private. The other is in the loft, which also has privacy but is more open to the lights and sounds from below. The comfortable sofa sleeper is in the living room. The layout is very convenient. The kitchen is in the front of the apartment near the front door, so is away from the sleeping areas in case someone wants to get up early and have coffee or have a late snack. We ate only breakfast in the apartment because of the incredible selection of restaurants in the area, but the kitchen is complete with everything needed for cooking. The four flights of stairs were no problem at all. We took breaks at the landings and considered the walk up the stairs good exercise. Marc was very friendly and always prompt in responding to our inquiries. If you are looking for a great apartment in the center of the "real" Marseille, you cannot do better than this one! Very highly recommended!

Great Stay in Marseille!
We loved Marc's apartment! It is VERY roomy and the view is wonderful. Many stairs up but great exercise. Lots going on at the port all the time but my favorite was the morning fish market. Grocery store and Pastry shops are just a few doors away. Look for the store "Mr. Bricolage" in big red letters — the entrance is right next door. Herve met us there when we arrived and he was terrific. Parking is in an underground garage across the street.

We loved it!
We so enjoyed our time in Marseille! The location of the space is very central to all we needed. It was in short walking distance to the Metro that is very easy to use. It was right where all the boats are for touring Marseille by boat. Kenya met us there with the keys and was very helpful to give us all the info we needed. We really were only in the flat in the evening since we were gone all day and so the internet was very important to us when we got back and it worked well. For us, it is easily a 5-star place as it was very clean and useable--the only hesitation is the steps up to the 4th floor. But we would no doubt rent it again!

Central location and large apartment
The apartment was just as described, centrally located and as shown in the pictures. It is very spacious and well equipped. It was great to have a washing machine!! Didn't realize until our last day that there was an air conditioner so found it a little noisy with the windows open, and a bit warm too, however the air conditioner would have made a big difference. Furniture was minimal and the sofa not so comfortable, but the beds were fine. It is a fourth floor walk up which was fine for us, but even being in good shape the stairs were pretty steep. Just an FYI! I gave it four stars because it is very well equipped the owner/ property manager were easy to deal with, and the location is great!
