“Charming, comfortable, unforgettable!”
We spent 4days/3nights in the Hotel Villa Catarie. We loved a very special historic character of the property and all the services. Villa Catarie has a very good location in the middle of the village - close to the bus or train stations, a few metres from the beach (suitable mainly for surfing and walking, less for swimming), with several restaurants in the very proximity. staying in the Villa Catarie Hotel feels like visiting friends or family. We spent very pleasant days in the village and enjoyed everything. All the local people we met were extremely nice and friendly.

“Dream hotel in dream location”
Everything was wonderful. The staff were charming and genteel. The old fashioned style of the hotel gave it real charm. Our room was excellent next time I will book a balcony. I so hope there's a next time. Excellent breakfast good selection to choose from. Wonderful location. We loved the coastal walk south to Saint Jean de Luz and North to Biarritz. Stunning scenery. Recommend the Café Basque in walking distance for a meal. This is the sort of hotel that makes me want to get a job as the secret guest.

“Perfect hotel in a beautiful location!”
The property is situated perfectly in the town. The train station is a 5/6 min walk so very close. The property is a few minutes walk to some superb restaurants and around 10mins to the beautiful beach. There is a Spar shop 8/10 mins toward the main road so everything is conveniently located. The rooms are well laid out and has everything you need. We had the Garden room downstairs so that had its own small garden area with deck chairs and table so perfect to just have a a drink and relax. We didn’t have a car but we noticed the car parking was ample and it would be easy to get around. We took the bus into Biarritz and we found it easy and convenient. Definitely worth staying here 😍
