About this apartment rental

This apartment has been in the family for many years and has just been fully renovated. We have only just started renting this out as before we kept it for family and friends. It is our second home so we want like minded people to appreciate it and treat it as we would.
There are three large bedrooms, a large kitchen and dining room, one bathroom, a shower room with wash basin and another separate toilet.
The Living area is 25 square meters and has two large windows looking directly onto the beach and a large double door which opens onto the balcony with view on the sea, port and kids playground. The afternoon sun fills the living room. Two large couches and two arm chairs allow you catch up on reading and there is a TV, a DVD player WIFI and CABLE TV. The Kitchen is new and contains a fridge, oven, stove, microwave, and dishwasher and is bathed in morning sun, just wonderful to have breakfast in the sun while looking over the port and mountains. There is a large dining table which can seat eight/ten comfortably.

The master bedroom has mountain and port views with a balcony and a double bed 160 cm, the sun floods in here from morning till early afternoon, there is a shower and basin off this bedroom. The 2nd bedroom has beautiful sea views with a balcony and has two single beds and gets the afternoon sun. The 3rd bedroom has sea views with a balcony and has two single beds. There are two toilets one of which is separate and the other is in the bathroom which has a bathtub, shower and a clothes washing machine. There is also off street parking which if you have a car is an absolute must. This is not a main street so the apartment is quiet and peaceful. You can hear the sea lapping from all the bedrooms, it's really so lovely and relaxing to fall asleep to. The best part about this apartment is being able to access the beach so easily. Long walks along the beach first thing in the morning when there is no one about are breath taking!

The town has a main square which is three minutes walk from the apartment. This is full of cafes and places to eat and is perfect for a morning coffee and a read of the newspaper in the sun. There is a Thalassotherapy center 5 minutes walk from the apartment, this is a 'Well-being centre' which has a large indoor water area with water jets and spa baths.They offer everything from aqua aerobics to massages and even offer detox and slimming programs.

The mountains are just behind the apartment and there are many walks to do. There are also many golf courses in the area and Saint Sebastian’s is only a 30 minutes drive away and there are some great shops and a beautiful beach there.
There are surf clubs in the area too. Anglet, Bidart and Hendaye are known for their surf schools and beaches.

In summer the beach at St Jean de Luz is full of activities for adults and children, there is even a center where you can drop the kids off for the day.

Flights arrive in at Biarritz airport which is 20 – 30 minutes from the apartment. Flights can be taken from London to Biarritz with Ryan air then it is a 20 minutes taxi ride to St Jean de Luz around 30-40 Euros. There are also buses in summer and winter. The TGV train arrives in the center of the town of Saint Jean de Luz and the apartment is a 10 minute walk from here.

Whether you are three couples, a family or group of friends, this apartment will certainly help you make the most of your holiday in St Jean de Luz. If you require more room, we have another apartment under this one which has 3 bedrooms and sleeps 6 as well. It does not have seas views as it is lower down, but opens onto a terrace.

Beachfront Charm

Location, location, location. This lovely apartment in a classic building is at one end of the Grande Plage with fabulous views of the water and sunset and of the river. It’s well appointed with a good kitchen, good books and good art, plus a piano. There is a parking space but you can walk everywhere. Helpful hosts. We had a wonderful stay.

Vue imprenable 👍

Très bon séjour en famille, 4 personnes adultes. Appartement spacieux avec une vue magnifique sur la baie de Saint Jean. Maison de famille idéale pour accès à la plage, au pied de l'immeuble avec cependant un manque de fonctionnalité sur l'ameublement et totalité de la literie à revoir dans chaque chambre pour plus de confort. Nécessite aussi d'être "rafraîchis", mieux aménagé et plus rangé pour les locataires. Très bon séjour au global sur deux semaines.

Not what we expected

Not what we expected

The location is superb at the seafront and close to the centre. That's about all we can say on the positive side. We arrived at 14 to check in as stated in the contract only to be told that check in was at 16 hours. When inspecting the flat we were informed that the shower room couldn't be used. No information about this in advance. Two bath rooms was a critical criteria as we were two families. We soon found out that there was a constant and irritating sound from the oven which couldn't be turned off. We understood from later comments that this had been the case for considerable time. The china was chipped, the cutlery old and not fresh. The glasses were almost all of different designs. The furniture was filthy. The whole flat needed a thorough cleaning. There was no information available about anything, i.e. how to turn on the heating. As we believed the heating was turned off for the summer we experienced 15 degrees for two days before we found out how to turn on the heating. To be fair we should mention that we were compensated to some extent for the defects and we got quick replies to all our questions.

Formidable!

Formidable!

We are family of 5 from California who settled in beautifully to this spacious apartment. The views, the breeze, the location were undoubtedly the best! The rhythm of our day began with an early morning run along the boardwalk to the Pointe de Sainte Barbe, followed by coffee at Place Louis XIV. We shopped daily at the local Marche for fish, Jambon de Bayonne, Irouleguy, fruits, salads…all to make delicious meals in the well-supplied kitchen. Our time around the kitchen table, looking out over the port, the town of Ciboure and La Rhune, were momentous. You hear the church bells ring on the hour and watch the fishing boats come and go. Our days were full. Filled with exploring the town, marching our children by foot, to the Fort de Socoa, and beyond to other Basque beach towns (We followed the walking path: le sentier littoral –randonne 64). We enjoyed strolling and shopping along Rue Garat and Rue Gambetta and had a festive night celebrating le Toro de Fuego….music, confetti, and fireworks! Our kids loved the direct access to the beach. The umbrella and beach toys were well liked and much appreciated. As we look through our photos, we dream of returning to this special part of France. We would not hesitate to rent this apt. again. Guillaume responded to all our emails and the transfer of money was easy and our deposit returned promptly. We’d recommend this apt. to anyone. Thank you, Guillaume!

Fabulous location in the heart of the town.

Fabulous location in the heart of the town.

As previous people have said, this really has to be the best location in town. Our biggest decisions revolved around which balcony to sit on for our meals and/or drinks, depending on the position of the sun. We were here for the 14th July fireworks - I doubt anybody got a better view than we did from our front balcony! The accomodation is spacious with plenty of room for 6 people. The large range of crockery, cutlery and other kitchen equipment meant we could happily wait until the dishwasher was full before using it and there were also plenty of towels for indoor and beach use. There was a huge basket full of play equipment for the beach (bats, balls, frisbies etc) so even with young children you would be able to fly to Biarritz with minimal luggage. The restaurants and bars were all within 5 minutes walk, the beach is literally on the doorstep and the owners were punctual, friendly and helpful. If you want to venture further afield for a day we would recommend a train ride to San Sebastian where your euro goes a lot further.... I was slightly apprehensive about booking directly with the owners as I had never done this before but it was so easy I will certainly use this website again. All emails I sent were swiftly responded to and the owners gave us their mobile phone numbers so we could ring if there was a problem. Many thanks to Guillaume and Frederic.

Best Location in St Jean de Luz - Ideal Apartment.

Fantastic location, second to none! Right on the water but a bit tucked away out of town. Simply perfect. Apartment lovely and so spacious for a French apartment right on the water. It comes with car parking which is a must if you have a car in St Jean. We know St Jean well and we will be coming back to use this place again. Guillaume was very helpful and accommodating with all arrangements. 100% satisfied. Terry Heart. UK

Perfect family holiday apartment-Amazing location!

Perfect family holiday apartment-Amazing location!

My sister, I with our 3 children wanted to take a break somewhere in France with a sandy beach as close as possible to the house. We came across Guillaume's apartment and although we had never been or heard of St jean de Luz decided to take the plunge. It was the best decision we made!! St jean de luz is fantastic and the apartment was perfect for all five of us, so lovely and so much bigger than we expected! It was only a ten minute walk from the train station through the centre of town which is so quaint and picturesque. The apartment which is one of five is located in a beautiful old art deco building with windows on every side. When we got inside we realised how close we were to the beach which was a beautiful golden sandy beach just like the photos - simply stunning! We could hear the waves from every room. The kids loved it, they played football on the beach and just beside the apartment there's a wall for playing tennis which is where our two sons spent the majority of their time and a playground for little ones just close by too - where me and my 6 year old spent most of our time! We were so lucky with the weather...we had five days of around 27 degrees in April! The apartment was bright, clean and homely with everything you would need for your stay. The bedrooms were nice and tidy and the views from each one were amazing. The beds were comfortable and the deco very French! The bathrooms were new and clean. It was interesting trying to figure out French Television but we found a couple of English channels and there was good wifi in every room.There is a lovely big kitchen area for cooking and eating in. We had great fun buying fresh fish veggies and cheese from the market then cooking back at the apartment. The French bakeries are amazing too plus all the basque deli treats you can buy are so good. The shops where great but we couldn't get used to things closing from 12-3pm. We loved the church in the main street, it's so beautiful and the little train tour was a great way for us to get acquainted with the area. Penelope and Guillaume were so helpful and it was easy to organise. We really had a very special time in St jean de Luz. It's a beautiful and easy town to get around in. We are so glad we choose to go here, it's great for adults and great for kids. Thanks again Penelope and Guillaume, we really had a fantastic and very memorable time and would thoroughly recommend the apartment and St jean de Luz to anyone. K and B

Best location in St Jean de Luz!!

Best location in St Jean de Luz!!

We had the pleasure of staying at this apartment in St Jean de Luz for 10 days in April. My wife and I had heard about the spa (Thalasso Helianthal) in St Jean de luz and we wanted to explore the Basque region. The apartment is so well placed, right on the beach and just a short walk from the charming town, plus the spa was only 5 minutes walk away. Spa was fantastic, we went most days from 5pm, this is a must!! The apartment was great, very clean and bright and they have just done up the bathrooms so that was a lovely surprise, plus having the parking space was such a bonus too. The apartment has sun all day, in the kitchen in the morning and in the living room the afternoon. Fred who met us at the apartment was really helpful and spoke fantastic English which was handy as our French was rusty! The apartment is well equipped with everything you need. It is lovely and spacious and having breakfast in the morning over looking the port with the windows open and the sun pouring in was just magic. The kitchen had everything you need to cook a banquet, but we did eat out a lot as there are so many amazing restaurants just a moment from the apartment. We had friends stay for a long weekend and there was plenty of room. It really was such a lovely spacious and calm place to unwind. Hearing the sea as you fall asleep is so peaceful, we slept extremely well while we were down there. Morning walks along the beach on a sunny day were the highlight, the apartment is right on the beach, it’s truly spectacular. We would happily recommend this apartment and we are definitely thinking about coming back again next year.

Unbeatable Location!

Unbeatable Location!

Hands down the best location in town! Ocean or port views from every window/balcony and mere steps down to the lovely sandy beach. Short stroll to many shops, restaurants and outdoor cafes and bars. The apartment is large and comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. Parking space onsite is an extra bonus. Upcoming improvements to the bathrooms and beds will make this apartment pretty much a perfect home away from home for visitors. St Jean de Luz is a great base for exploring Basque villages, visiting San Sebastian or the Guggenheim in Bilbao and many other excursions. Our party of 4 (2 couples) really enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning soon.
