Accommodation is simply the provision of dwelling. This could be on either a short term or long-term basis. The type of accommodation provided is based on the client’s needs, the duration of their stay, their budget, and the location. There are different types of accommodation in use by residents and locals alike. These include tents, caravans or mobile homes, hotels and so on. The variations in charges may vary because of the quality of service offered, the duration of the person’s stay and any other extras the client may require as they use the facilities. In Cannes, there are different categories of accommodation and they are located in different sections of the city, offer different services, and are best suited to different individuals and groups.
The first category available is the luxury villas. The target market for these villas is the more high-end clientele that is able to rent out the villa for longer periods. An example is the Villa L’abri. It has several good features like the dining room, sitting room, a formal library and it is air-conditioned. It is available for hire on a yearly basis. Another type of accommodation that is available in the city is the holiday apartment. These are rented out for an unspecified period. The length of time is not fixed and is at the discretion of the client. The advantage that this has over the villa is that it is cheaper and does not need to be rented out for a year. The apartment could be anything from one bed roomed to three depending on whether the guest is alone or traveling with a group. The apartments have their own standard facilities like a kitchen, living area, washroom, and bathroom.
There are also furnished apartments. These are superior quality apartments as opposed to just the regular apartments. However, as expected they are slightly more costly. The circle apartments are located at the Circle at Cavil. They are 2 minutes from the beach and are made up of two towers. The Circle high-rise, which is the southern tower, and the Circle Sky Rise, which is the northern tower. They are rated four to five star hotels. Regular hotel rooms are also available for the no fuss client who may be in the city for a short stay and may not be looking to spend too much money. Examples are Hotel Carlton Hotel Aramante, Hotel Olympia, and Riviera Eden Palace.
