Looking for a holiday rental in Collioure? At Love Collioure, four apartments offer south-west terraces, two bedrooms for up to four guests and Port d'Avall beach about 300 m away on foot. This guide helps you weigh up location, outdoor space and practical comforts before choosing between Cézanne, Derain, Monet and Dufy. Start with your priorities, picture a day here, then explore the apartments and check your dates.
Start with where you want to walk
When deciding where to stay, think about your first outing after breakfast. Would you take a towel to the beach, wander through the village or set out along the coastal path? Use those plans to judge a location. A useful description tells you which beach you can reach and gives a walking distance, so you can picture the journey from your accommodation. Love Collioure's address is 20 carrer de Sant Elme, 66190 Collioure. Port d'Avall, also called the Faubourg beach, is about 300 m away on foot. You can also walk to the village, the castle, the bell tower and the coastal path. Collioure's beaches are small coves with sand and pebbles. Bring water shoes if you like having them for pebbly shores. When comparing places to stay, keep the named beach and the walking distance together: they give you a concrete starting point for planning your day.
Give the terrace a place in your plans
Picture how you would use outdoor space: breakfast with a book, lunch together or a drink after exploring the village. Then look at the terrace's size, orientation, shade and outlook. Those details help you choose a place that fits the way you want to spend your holiday. All four Love Collioure terraces face south-west, with views over the hills and vineyards. Shade sails and parasols provide shade, and the terraces have tables, chairs and sun loungers. You might plan a meal outside, take your reading out after breakfast or sit together at the end of the day. The terrace areas are 26 m² at Cézanne, 34 m² at Derain, 36 m² at Monet and 35 m² at Dufy. Monet has the largest terrace; Dufy has a planted terrace. Use the photographs alongside these measurements to imagine your own stay. If outdoor time is high on your list, let that preference guide which apartment you explore first, then check its availability for your dates.
Match the sleeping arrangements to your group
Before looking through apartments in Collioure, write down who is travelling and how you want to use the bedrooms. A couple might want a separate room for accompanying family members; a family might start by checking the individual beds. Look at the actual sleeping arrangements as well as the maximum number of guests. Each Love Collioure apartment accommodates up to four people in two bedrooms, with one double bed and two single beds. This arrangement is shared by Cézanne, Derain, Monet and Dufy, so you can keep the same bedroom requirements while comparing their terraces. All four apartments have air conditioning, and bed linen and towels are provided and included. If you are travelling with a baby, a cot is available in every apartment by prior request. Ask Camille before your stay so you can plan what to bring. Put any other questions about your group's needs together before booking; a specific question about an apartment is a useful way to check that your choice fits your plans.
Think through breakfast, cooking and laundry
For self-catering accommodation, imagine the ordinary parts of your holiday as well as the outings. Would you like to make breakfast before going out, prepare lunch at home or cook together in the evening? Check the kitchen and household equipment with those routines in mind. You can plan to eat in on some days and leave other meals open. The four apartments have equipped kitchens and dishwashers. Fibre Wi-Fi is available, too. For washing clothes, a shared laundry room serves the four apartments, with two washing machines and one tumble dryer. Make your packing list around what is supplied: bed linen and towels are included, and the laundry facilities are shared. If a particular kitchen item matters to a dish you plan to cook, ask Camille about it before you travel. That gives you a practical answer for your own stay without having to guess from a photograph.
Plan how you will use a car during your stay
Consider arrival and your days in Collioure separately. If you are bringing a car, check the parking arrangement as part of choosing your rental. If you want to explore on foot, keep a short list of the places you would like to walk to from your accommodation. Each Love Collioure apartment has a private parking space in front of the residence. The space is narrow and suits a medium-sized car. Check with Camille before booking if you have a larger vehicle. Include your vehicle size in the question so the answer can address your plans. Once here, you can walk to Port d'Avall beach, the village, the castle, the bell tower and the coastal path. You might leave the car parked for a day built around those places: a beach visit, time in the village and a return to your terrace. Choose the order to suit your group and leave room to change your mind over breakfast.
Use your priorities to choose between the four apartments
With your location and everyday needs clear, narrow your choice to the outdoor space you prefer. The four vacation rentals share one address, the same maximum capacity and the same bed arrangement. Each has air conditioning, fibre Wi-Fi, an equipped kitchen and a south-west terrace looking towards the hills and vineyards. • Cézanne: a 26 m² terrace; start here if this outdoor area fits the stay you have in mind. • Derain: a 34 m² terrace; explore its photographs if terrace meals feature in your plans. • Monet: a 36 m² terrace, the largest of the four; put it first on your shortlist if terrace size is your deciding factor. • Dufy: a planted 35 m² terrace; begin here if you like the idea of greenery around your outdoor space. All four have the classification Meublé de tourisme 3★ (official French rating). Open the apartment details to see more photographs, then check which choices are available for your dates. Let your preferences lead the comparison.
Check your dates and the full booking total
Once you have a shortlist, use the booking calendar to check your dates. Stays are from 2 nights; the booking calendar shows the rule for your dates. Enter your intended arrival and departure dates to see the available apartments and the exact total for that stay. You book directly with Love Collioure, with no commission. There is an end-of-stay cleaning charge, and the total shown when you book includes cleaning and tourist tax. Review that total before payment, alongside your dates and apartment choice. Bed linen and towels are included in all four apartments. If you would like to bring a pet, ask for prior approval; accepted pets carry no supplement. For a question about your choice or preparations, contact Camille on +33 6 24 74 66 36. Have your dates, group size and apartment preferences ready. Then use the apartment and booking buttons to move from your shortlist to the details and availability you need.
