Every member staff were super welcoming and helpful, especially Bastian who happily sorted our transfers for us.

Stunning property with helpful staff. A dreamy escape. Only suggestions would be to have water available for self serve 24hours and food available at all hours of each day since the location is secluded.

We will be back

This is a beautiful, very quiet spot. Pricey on the food etc but you never have to leave if you don’t want to. Book your massage ahead of time-they are full. But great pool/sauna etc. you can watch the tide come in and out and the staff are very helpful, friendly and happy to help with my lousy French.

Family holiday and enjoyed location with good cycle routes. Room was good size for 2 adults and 2 children. Pool ok size but can see why some reviews say not big enough and can be difficult to get a seat if arriving later in day. Staff super friendly and breakfast great choice. Only real negative is we hired out bikes 4-5 times and every time there was an issue - locks not working, child seat missing, chain had come off and would recommend they are checked more regularly.

Chambre spacieuse et décoration très agréable. L'hôtel est bien situé avec une belle vue sur l'océan. La piscine extérieure est vraiment petite (4 à 5 m de large au maximum). Le petit déjeuner est hors de prix (27EUR par personne). Nous avons essayé le restaurant et la qualité était au rendez vous. Pour les services il est vraiment dommage de facturer la location de vélos à des tarifs 50% supérieur (19EUR pour un vélo simple par journée) au tarifs des vendeurs du village situé à 500m. L'impression générale est donc la suivante: Très bel hôtel mais malheureusement l'impression de passer pour des pigeons. Ce qui ne fera pas de nous des clients fidèles à cet établissement.

Hotel très bien situé en bords de plage. Chambre très confortable et bien équipée. Staff très aimable. Nous n'avons pas testé le restaurant lui-même, mais la restauration au bar est très pratique et parfaite pour un diner "snacking". En revanche, déception pour le rapport qualité-prix du petit-déjeuner qui ne vaut pas 26€ à mon avis. La piscine de la thalasso est correcte mais un peu petite pour un WE d'affluence (et de pluie!). Un très bon hotel quand même pour profiter de l'Ile de Ré.
