“Charming stay around the Bay of Arcachon.”
The hotel was quirky and had character, the rooms were nicely updated and decorated well and the same with the bathrooms. The beds were big and comfortable and everything well thought out. The facilities looked nicely kept ( not pool weather but it looked very nice). The owners and all the staff were very friendly and helpful and a lot of fun- it was a lovely atmosphere. Breakfast were plentiful and car parking available.

“Cozy hotel in Bassin”
The hotel is cozy and well served. The breakfast is very good and the hosts are always ready to give useful tips for touring the Bassin. We enjoyed taking a bath in the swimming pool every late afternoon after travelling around. You can go on foot to the sea and to the centre of Arés.
