Apartment with Spectacular Views
This bright well equipped apartment at Santa Maria, Port Argeles is wonderfully situated in the southernmost part of France at the gateway of Catalonia and Spain. Port Argeles basking in almost continuous sunshine nestles beside the Mediterranean where the Alberes foothills of the Pyrenees plunge into the sea. A short five minute walk takes you to the promenade and a 7km Blue Flag beach. The local village of Argeles has maintained its Catalan atmosphere with a twice-weekly market.
The apartment has a private south facing balcony where you will find it wonderful to relax with a glass of local wine watching the marina activities and the sunlight continuously changing over the Pyrenees.

Great apartment for two in perfect location for beach, port and restaurants. Boulangerie just around the corner for the morning croissants and restaurants even nearer. Apartment has all you need for a relaxing break without having to travel at all. We caught the train from Paris to Perpignan and then took the bus for 1 euro with the bus stop in very easy walking distance. Pre-arrival information is outstanding with all the maps and information you need. Recommend 15 minute boat trip to nearby Collioure. We had stunningly hot weather so sat in the shade of the pine trees overlooking the beach. Read 5 books in one week, including those in their library. Perfect. Just to note, that for those who find the heat a bit much, there is no air conditioning and for that reason it is a 4. Otherwise it would be a perfect 5.Guest rating:
My wife and I travelled to Port Argeles for the first time, having holidayed in the Languedoc Roussilon region for many years. A pleasant surprise awaited us on entering the "Apartment". The view of the Marina bathed in glorious sunshine was absolutely stunning. Pop onto the balcony, look left to the Pyrenees,wonderful. The apartment was equipped with much more than we required for our vacation. Everything and more besides. Comfortable beds, settee, super little bathroom,along with an adequately supplied kitchen area. The first floor balcony gives you panoramic views and plenty of sunshine. Adequate shopping in the marina area along with an abundance of bars and restaurants. Five minutes (steady) walk to a stunning sandy beach. the list goes on. All the info available, supplied in the apartment. Local markets abound. Kathy and I travelled by T,G.V. to Perpignan, (no car driving for us on Vacation). Great transport links. Coach (1Euro) drops you within 50 metres of the apartment. We travelled to Collieure, (walked and bus) Banyuls sur Mer. Argeles village etc. We had a fabulous time in a superb apartment. I would highly recommend a holiday in Port Argeles and especially the "Apartment". Malcolm and Kathy (Taylor)Guest rating:
Situated in a peaceful spot overlooking Port Argelès, Santa Maria is an ideal apartment for couples to spend quality time unwinding.We found it absolutely super, within 2 minutes of the beach and overlooking a beautiful marina with the backdrop of wooded hills this has been our retreat for many a year. The apartment has sun on the balcony all afternoon and after a morning on the beach and a brief siesta then you can take in the sun and watch the world go by.We use our week in Argelès to unwind and recharge our batteries. The pace of life around the port is incredibly laid back and during the week we rarely venture outside the immediate vicinity. Around the port there are numerous restaurants, bars as well as other shops that sell local produce and souvenirs.For visitors that like a bit more of a lively atmosphere then Argelès town is a short walk, about 10/15 minutes and there are plenty of activities for those who like action in their holiday.We thoroughly enjoy our stay at Santa Maria and would recommend it to couples who want a quiet, relaxing break.Guest rating:
An ideal base for exploring this area, with your own secure parking undercover, ideal for when its hot. Superb views from the apartment over the port, a superb beach and walkway, restaurants a plenty, in short in our opinion a fantastic spot, we have been coming here for many years, it never dissapoints.Guest rating:
"We stayed twice at 205 Santa Maria in Port Angeles and thoroughly enjoyed our holiday both times. The apartment on the first floor is well stocked and has everything we needed. The main room is pleasant and light, with plenty to watch from the balcony - holidaymakers walking by or shopping, as well as constant movement and interest from the boats in the marina. There were many excellent cafes and restaurants to choose from close by and various items of free entertainment every evening. Further afield there are places of general and artistic interest only a boat or train ride away. We visited Collioure, with its picturesque cottages and sites where well known artists, Matisse, Picasso and others were inspired and Port Vendre where Charles Rennie Mackintosh painted. It is well worth taking a trip to Banyuls near the Spanish border and Pyrenees, where a tourist train took us though the town into the hills to view the bay and beyond in all directions. Port Argeles itself has much of interest to offer and is very conveniently situated for visits to Perpignon, Carcassonne or Barcelona. We had a truly memorable holiday both times.Guest rating:
"We had a fantastic holiday at santa Maria. The apartment is in a great location with great views of the marina and the hills. It is equipped with all you'll need for a super holiday! The marina itself has lots of lovely restaurants bars and shops. I look forward to our next holiday at santa maria"Guest rating:
