Hôtel de la Plage

Excellent kitchen and service in a cosy hotelat on a picturesque beach.. A well situated center to go sightseeing the attractive spots in the vicinity.

We had an exceptional three days here in May. The hotel is wonderfully situated on a long beach and we were delighted to join the strollers and families in the evening sunshine. Our room overlooked the sea; it was spotless and had every comfort, including a plate of freshly prepared fruit and Breton biscuits to welcome us. We ate twice in the restaurant and both meals were delicious, especially the foie gras and the fish fresh from the day's catch. The staff are unfailingly attentive and kind.

Highly recommendable for guests who love a secluded luxurious getaway surrounded by beautiful nature (huge sandy beach, fabulous sunset). The friendly staff and the spacious room with sea view add to a feeling of a home away from home.

We have been privileged to stay in hundreds of hotels over half a century plus of enthusiastic travels. Nowadays almost all hotels offer some value and effort to be good innkeepers. But only a very small percentage rise to the very top tier. Like the very best of musicians, who make you feel the music in a transcendent way, these hotels have extraordinary charm and make you feel you are in a special place. I have been around long enough to know there is plenty of hard work behind the scenes. With a century of hospitality and a longstanding four generation family stewardship in place, there are many nice touches which seem to be disappearing from the hotel business. The rooms and public spaces are full of art work, furniture and mementos that would be ruled out by many business accountants, but in a way this is a home as well as a hotel. Freshly squeezed orange juice, really good and strong coffee (somewhat of a rarity in France) served in Limoges china cups, a superior breakfast buffet make a great impression. The dining room and dinners are a cause for celebration. It is nice to have a real waiter, and not just a server. Ownership has a real and active presence, not just a distant investment. Here I am in the fourth paragraph, and just getting around to saying the setting is peaceful, beautiful and a real oasis. This is our fifth, all very nice hotels, so far on this long trip=and clearly our first choice to return. Bravo and brava.
