We had a great stay in La Grande Motte and were pleasantly surprised by the destination, with lovely architecture, trees, and bike paths.
The hotel is close to the Etang du Ponant, making for a really nice setting. The bungalows have been renovated, spacious, with comfortable beds, and the air conditioning worked well, though it was positioned right above the bed, so we felt it blowing on us all night. As for activities, we went wakesurfing, which was great. The kids enjoyed the mini jeeps and evening entertainment, and my husband loved playing tennis. In the evening, you could watch the flamingos fly by. We loved having cocktails at the bar each evening, it became a bit of a ritual.
A few things could be improved: the buffet was often too crowded and noisy, especially in the morning, and we found the food average. The kids club did not win us over, as the activities were not very elaborate given the great setting. We would have liked an indoor gym, since the heat made outdoor exercise unpleasant. Finally, the front desk staff were not very welcoming: at check-in, we were simply handed our keys with no further guidance, and we felt like we were bothering them. No simple amenities were offered, such as a mailbox or the chance to buy basic necessities like shampoo.
