Guestbook for 30 Rue du Soleil

Your apartment was lovely for our children, so close to the beach for sandcastles and playing in the sea. The merry-go-round will never be forgotten. Collioure is a dream - We will definitely return.

D Chambers Oxford,


As a frustrated amateur artist I found this holiday exceptional. We stopped at Figueras on our way to Collioure and the Dali museum is superb. Collioure itself is a feast of art and we found the whole trip greatly inspiring.

Gerald & Vicki Dublin



Collioure is a foodies heaven. It was wonderful to be able to buy fresh produce from the village market and then create an authentic dish using your cookery books in the flat.
When we were fed up with cooking we found some great restaurants.

Nice flat, will return.

Peter and Paula - Notts.
