Tiara is a fantastic place to relax and reset. The rooms were spacious, and we sprung for one with a patio that overlooked the water, which was well worth it. All that said, the restaurant food wasn't up to snuff, especially compared to the rest of the resort, so that was a big letdown.

My man and I landed upon this adorable B&B by accident and good karma. We arrived in Antibes with no reservation, as we chose to travel through Europe with 2 passports, a GPS device (affectionately named Gladys) and a rental car. Hotel la Jabotte was a property recommended by Rick Steve's in one of his books, but the book's description did not pay it justice. First, I wanted (still do) to be best friends with Yves and Claude and perhaps figure out a job in the property that would afford me the lifestyle they live daily in charming Antibes. Since that did not happen and I am back to reality, I feel compelled to mention that this was my favorite property of all the hotels we stayed at throughout Europe. It was far from the most expensive, but not the least expensive of the properties we paid patronage. Warm, accommodating, thoughtful details, affordable but not lacking, with a wonderful location.... I awoke in the morning to enjoy the complimentary and delicious breakfast, but my husband was not feeling well. Claude noticed he did not join me. I wrapped up, headed back to the room to take a shower, and when I emerged.... Claude had set up a special breakfast on the patio outside our room for my husband to enjoy! Fantastic and unsolicited service. Thank you Hotel la Jabotte for creating an everlasting memory for us! Cheers!

HOWEVER, we arrived much too early for our reservation and instead of allowing entry (which I do understand, had it been explained politely and apologetically), we were looked up and down with an air of dismissiveness and told to return later. When we did return we were AGAIN looked at askance because we arrived in shorts - though we explained we brought more appropriate attire to change into as we had had been shopping in Antibes earlier in the day - and nearly denied entry AGAIN until the more senior security person deigned to approve our entry. To top it all off, I never felt welcome to enjoy anything beyond the bar and grill area, the martini was only OK at the bar, my moules were COMPLETELY oversalted (and I like salt!!) and when I told the wait person, all she did was repeat what I said with surprise and clear the table... no offer to bring a comped dessert or drink or knock some $ off the bill. All in all very disappointing. I live in San Francisco which is full of tech billionaires and yet to feel so excluded at the start of this experience and to end with such mediocre food, really was a sad thing. I would have expected more given the glowing article I had read in Condé Nast. Perhaps if you are a straight couple it's a different experience - we are two women, and the whole thing left a bad taste in my mouth...

It is a small hotel with a restaurant. It's rustic, as you might expect, since it's in a skiing and recreation area in the alps. The rooms are simply furnished, but comfortable and homey. The restaurant serves huge portions of a delicious version of French country cooking. I had a beef stew served over ravioli, tasty and filling. No one here speaks English. I was the only one in the restaurant that wasn't French. Even though I don't speak French, the staff were friendly and patient and we were able to communicate enough for me to check in to my room and to have dinner in the restaurant. Overall, I would definitely recommend l'Escapade if you are looking for a comfortable place to stay in the Maritime Alps.
