Le meilleur beach bar à Nice! Tous les plats sont délicieux et on peux y trouver des transats sans réservation. Le personnel est très gentil et ils sont toujours prêts à t’aider. Je le recommande fortement

Avec mon amie nous sommes allées manger à la Vela quasiment tous les jours durant notre séjour. Nous avons été séduite par l’ambiance, le cadre, la qualité du service et des produits. Tout est très frais, notamment le poisson du sushi bar et les cocktails sont délicieux. Le personnel est très agréable et soucieux du bien être des clients. Mention spéciale à la soirée bohémienne ou l’ambiance était au rendez-vous et les serveurs et serveuses magnifiquement dans le thème. Merci à la gérante pour son accueil chaleureux tous les soirs, on se sentait comme à la maison. 💋
