LA VILLA L'ARCHE

What a wonderful find! This lovely little hotel has a real summer beach / surf vibe, yet decorated modern, and in that same theme. A lovely heated pool and hot tub available for guests. Beautiful lawn and gardens, with lots of space to chill, relax, sun bathe or just enjoy the panoramic view of the ocean and beach. Wander down the steps direct to the beach (little cafe and restaurant down there), and enjoy long golden sands and watch the surfers. No lunch or dinner served, but breakfast is fantastic, fresh fruit, baked pastries, french bread, eggs and ham etc,., served to your table. Staff are super friendly and helpful with recommendations for restaurants, parking spots, places to visit etc. Local bus stop is less than 5 minutes walk, and will take you to Biarritz or South to beautiful little port towns. Very dog friendly hotel, would highly recommend. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Everything was top notch. The attention to details were superb and the Staff was friendly and attentive. Lovely young people always helpful and pleasant. We really enjoyed our stay and we were even lucky to have met the General manager who was so kind and informative.

This turned out to be one of these small and highly enjoyable hotels. It is located on a hill directly next to the sea with stunning views. In the garden there is a jacuzzi and close to the hotel they have a pool. Rooms were clean and good. Breakfast was served by Marie and she's a wonderful person.

We (2 adults and 2 children) stayed at the Villa L’Arche in July. The hotel/villa was just beautiful. We got upgraded to an apparent with a sea view which was simply amazing. The rooms were lovely and the infinity pool was perfect temperature. Staff are friendly and helpful. There was a real relaxed feeling around the place. ||It is just 50 m from the beach and 6 km from St Jean de Luz and Biarritz. The beach is a 3 minute walk away and the Bidart town square is less than 5 minutes away. It was a real treat.

Villa L'Arche was an amazing experience ! Don't miss it if you wish to visit Bidart and Pays Basque. ||The hotel has 9 rooms and 3 apartments. Our bedroom was a beautiful Junior Suite. A very large bedroom with ocean view, terrace and all the comfort especially the bed and mattress which provided us an excellent sleep. ||The breakfasts were excellent too ! Fresh squeezed orange juice, eggs, ham, cheese, yogurt, croissants, bread... Every morning was a delight. ||The location is great too between St Jean de Luz and Biarritz. And a 10 mn walk from Bidart lovely center. ||The hotel is also very relaxing and quiet as there are only 9 bedrooms. |And therefore it's a very personalized service. ||The staff is very helpful, welcoming and friendly. The owner Florian is adorable and Marie is fantastic and always smiling. She's the one preparing and serving breakfast. ||Don't miss a wonderful experience at Villa L'Arche ! Many thanks to all the staff ! ||Assia from Paris

Beautifully charming hotel, a few steps from the sea. The staff are very welcoming and go out of their way to make you feel at home. The rooms are spacious, modern and clean. A great outdoor area, with a pool. We loved our stay here & will definitely come back!

What a find! The hotel, room, its grounds and location exceeded our expectations. More importantly the team were outstanding - Nelly was very helpful pre-arrival, greeted us with warmth upon arrival, and everyone we encountered during our stay was lovely. Wish we could have stayed longer than our three nights but it’s one of those gems that we’ll return to with fondness.

Stayed for six nights. Booked it because of the excellent reviews and therefore our expectations were high. Our stay exceeded all our expectations. Service and attention was superb from everyone including Florien, Nelly, Marie, Clementine. Stunning setting, fabulous facilities and excellent service. Ticks all the boxes.
