Private vacation home

Close to sailing, scuba diving, and more, this family-friendly vacation home brings it all within reach. Bay of Biscay is an easy 14-minute walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 3-minute drive to Arcachon Bay. If you're looking to expand your horizons and see other nearby locales, you can catch a train at Gujan-Mestras La Hume Station, a short 12-minute walk away.

Spend some time at the nearby beach (enjoy the sun loungers!), relax by the heated pool, or sip a drink in the garden of this 1776-sq-ft vacation home, which also features a deck or patio. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the WiFi and TV.

A living room, a dining area, and air conditioning are featured at this 5-bedroom rental. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer and towels. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and an ice maker. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll have a washer and dryer, too.
