A good respit
Pros:

Location is between Bordeaux and Cap Ferret. Allows you to visit both in the same day. Very good restaurants close by in Andernos-les-Bains. Very friendly, hard working staff.

Cons:

Expensive continental breakfast - Not worth it, limited selection. WiFi did not work in the room. Smallest bathroom and shower we have ever been in. Pool closes at 7:30 PM, it gets dark at 10 PM.

Zwischenstopp auf unserer Radtour
Pros:

Sehr netter, freundlicher Empfang. Da die Zimmer rund um das Hauptgebäude gruppiert sind (teilweise in Bungalows), hat man sehr viel Privatsphäre. Modernes Badezimmer und bequeme Betten.

Cons:

Es könnte Gläser/Tassen im Zimmer geben.

Sympathique hôtel!
Pros:

Ambiance familiale de l’hôtel. La chambre était de bonne taille, avec quelques rangements. Grande salle de bain avec douche parapluie. La piscine toute proche, mais la météo était mauvaise. Tout est propre y compris l’environnement extérieur. Petit déjeuner est bon. Parking en suffisance. Accueil « comme à la maison », on se sent très à l’aise.

Cons:

La météo 🫠🫠
Du coup, on est sorti dans les alentours pour visiter et on a passablement fait de kms, ce qui n’était pas dans nos plans initiaux. Il fait donc compter du temps pour rejoindre la dune du pilat ou autres sites touristiques. Et pour quelques jours c’était dommage mais bien sûr l’hôtelier n’y peut rien!
