December 14

The Château Eza was reviewed in France magazine for Fall 2011 as having hotel rooms with "a mixture of private balconies, terraces, soaking tubs, and seaside views." It's on the Côte d'Azur in a medieval village. It sounded to me like a perfect December break, and when I visited its beautiful site http://www.chateaueza.com/images I saw a picture that shows I was completely right.
