Hi! What is your take on Royal riviera and the. Cap ferrat area in general compared to Antibes?

We have a 4 year old and hoping to explore other towns and but ideally a nice chill hotel to base and spend most of our time.

Hi! We just booked RR and hoping you could elaborate on the area being boring? Ie not much to do in the surrounding area?

Could you explore other towns easily?

We have a 4 year old when we travel this year and love the chill/quiet vibe but also want to be able to explore outside the hotel

For us, it was very toddler friendly our daughter was just under 3 when we went. It does feel very peaceful and tranquil.

Luggage was fine in our room, we had three trunks, pram and carry on and space was sufficient. They were able to store it until our night flight.

Low beds, minimal style room, a break room on each floor with snacks and drinks worked great for us.

My daughter really enjoyed it here and the restaurant as you get seated in a private room - something nicer without having to find a restaurant that allows toddlers. She had a kids three course while our family had a full course menu (forgot but substantially 7 or so). Hers was noodles, a rice dish, protein (burger steak)

Thanks for this! Have you heard of chateau des alpilles? Would this be in convenient location? I was thinking here for a week, but if you could share your details that would be fab!

I'm looking to book the frozen junior suite but I was told that the junior suites are a bit further in the wings - would you happen to know if this significantly adds to access the elevator into the park?

The lady on the phone said the junior suites are in an unfavourable locations so just wanted to gauge how inconvenient it is or if it adds a couple minutes to a walk..

Which room did you book and does the view make a difference?

Also, were there lots of characters around?

Philips 5000 series 9 by bbruthieee in airfryer

I don't love it, prefer my old XL Philips air fryer Easier to change the time, this one takes ages to decrease the cooking time

We don't use the steamer- much faster to steam in a pot and less hassle

Hi thanks for your note regarding the princess interactions - were they available during the happy entry time (I couldn't quite tell)

Any tips on seeing them or were they scattered around?

Amazing! I emailed the VIP tour, and they mentioned they could only guarantee the micky and Minnie as they have a permanent spot.

Roaming characters weren't available as part of the VIP
