It was all that we hoped it would be and more - a family-friendly spot on a sandy beach (most around here are pebbles). The cove area that it sits on provides perfect protection from waves and wind, creating a crystal-clear shallow area extending a ways off the shore, great for even young kids to play in. There were quite a few English-speaking families which made it lots of fun for our young boys, and just bringing a bucket of sand toys was enough to keep them entertained for a full seven hours. The restaurant was wonderful, with gnocchi and ravioli (artichoke cream!) to die for. Their salads were fresh and cool, perfect for a warm day at the beach. This is one of the few places I've seen to do a dessert tray, and they sold me immediately on a delicious strawberry confection. Service at both the beach chairs and the restaurant was responsive and efficient. We could have saved by not renting four lounge chairs (our two young children, like all of the others, had no interest in sitting once they saw the sand) and towel rental wasn't cheap at 7 euro a piece, but worth it. The bathrooms, changing rooms, and showers were clean and nicely designed (although they don't provide soap or shampoo so remember to pack it). We stayed from morning to night and had an exceptional time here, and probably would even have returned had cooler cloudier weather not set in. If you're interested in a relaxing day (even as adults sans kids - there was a nice kid-free deck too) without the glitz and scene of Cannes or Nice, I can't recommend Plage Keller enough!

Fair prices for a stunning view on a sun bed right on the beach. Forgot your towel? No worries, they can supply that for you. Cant handle too much sun? No problem, they've got you covered with umbrella availability. Aside from a beautiful place to lay out, I cant forget to mention the excellent customer service from the friendly staff. Hors d' oeuvres, and fun cocktails also at your convenience, brought to you right to your sun station. My partner and I got there late morning, and left early afternoon to explore the rest of Nice, but were delighted to hear that we were welcome to comeback before 6 and reclaim our sun beds. Shocked to see such little reviews on such a charming place. Definitely looking forward to coming back soon.

One downside is that the restaurant is somewhat formal - if you want to get sandwiches or other light fare for lunch, you're out of luck unless you order a salad or charcuterie plate (if dining in the restaurant). Also, the overall quality of the food is only so-so and a little below what you might expect for the price. Lastly, the beach is (just slightly) more expensive than others. However, all of this is worth it - it's by far the best place in Juan Les Pins to relax, enjoy a (relatively) cheap bottle of rose with your toes in the sand, and enjoy the beautiful Mediterranean. I can't wait to return.

Not just for the warm water and beautiful scenery but the people that come to La Mala beach, the music played by the DJ, and the delicious food all combined create an all around perfect beach. Forget St. Tropez, Ipanema, Playa del Carmen, Belize, Florida, and Hawaii. While I do love all those beaches for different reasons, and really if you're hanging at the beach, life is still pretty good no matter which one you choose to chill at, La Mala is a cut above the rest. Definitely geared towards a younger high society crowd, the vibe is still amazing. However one downfall is that there isn't sand. It's rocks. So plan on bringing your water shoes. On to all yelpers most important subject, food. Here's what my table ordered: Mixed Fruit plate: a combination of every fruit I could think of plus some fruits I didn't recognize. The presentation was nice and the fruit was refreshing under the hot sun. Actually this is the only dish I got a pic of. Pizza Magherita: any Yelper from San Francisco is probably an expert in Magherita pizzas by now. The Magherita pizza at La Reserve was the best I've had yet. Chicken Caesar Salad: I didn't try the salad but a couple of my friends did. They said it was really good. There was a lot of food (such as seafood, etc) being served to people around me that all looked Food or Travel Channel worthy. I wish life was as Lil Wayne said, but for me I'd say: "Life is La Mala beach, I'm just playing at La Reserve".

I saw that you may want to make reservations so I called and I was blanking on the word "loungers" when I called and the gentlemen asked me if I knew how to speak english while laughing so I was like okay a little sassy but was still open to trying. If youre coming from the train station its a nice little walk through a neighborhood. When you see steep steps to your left with a small la reserve de la mela business sign that looks like you might be trespassing then youve found one of the entrances! We were sat down at the loungers on the beach. Our server came up and asked if we wanted to start with a bottle of Dom Perignon which we laughed and declined. We ordered the local lager & a Chablis which were both good. We also ordered one of the pizzas which was really good. We continued drinking and enjoying the beach but there wasnt much of an atmosphere, no music :/ we wanted to get a couples massage but they only had one masseuse but I would like to note that she was the nicest person working at that establishment and so she deserves a mention. We ended up spending around $250 and wouldve spent much more if the service and atmosphere were good. At the end of our visit the server said oh theres no pin to your card I can just charge it to $500 yeah and I just laughed nervously because I was uncomfortable. Like we get it your a private beach club but ive been to private beach clubs around the world and this is one of the less desirable ones ive been to. Its tacky to bring up money so much. If there was a good product there then you wouldnt have to awkwardly push a bottle of dom perignon. Next time im in South France I will skip this place :/

Yelp Review 2026 #204:…read more I was underwhelmed by the Saleya Market. I've seen travel shows depicting this place to be buzzing and lively. It's a long street where vendors of all sorts sell their wares.

I got here after lunch and the socca vendor closed for the day. There were a bunch of people and vendors but not much products left.

The phrase, "you don't bring beach to the sand!" doe not apply here as you should bring your own sand to these beaches.

Besides the rocks, everything is really cool about the place.
