Sea, Oysters and Europe’s Tallest Sand Dune

The reception staff were very welcoming and helpful. We had booked dinner in a nearby hotel for a dinner and the staff organised a taxi for us to travel there. Otherwise, everything you needed is in a pleasant walking distance. I can't wait to return to Arachon

Arcachon is a clean and welcoming place with plenty to do and lots of lovely places to eat. There are many options for boat trips in the Bassin d’ Arcachon, which are well worth doing. There is an excellent, cheap bus service to access places further than walking distance and the station has regular trains.

Arcachon is a lovely French seaside town.
Arcachon is a lovely French seaside town. Lovely mix of architecture, great food and great shopping. Lots to do, swimming, walking, cycling, and boating. Great cycle out to the Dune de Pyla and the view from the top is fantastic! Lovely boat ride to Cap Ferret and again a lovely cycle to the lighthouse. Arcachon ticks all the boxes for a couples/ family holiday. No late bars or clubs so not for the younger ones.

We were warned that Arcachon is very touristy and although there were many there (mid June), it didn‘t come across that way. Nice beach and promontory with lots of cafes and restaurants. Shopping streets including covered market were also worth visiting. Park above the downtown was beautiful. We took a train to Bordeaux for a day (50 min) which worked out very well. The nearby Pilate dunes are worth visiting. A boat outing to Cap Ferret is also recommended. We liked Le Pitt for good oysters a bit away from the beach and with fair prices.

This is a charming cozy little beach town, and there are a lot of nice shops and restaurants and cafes within walking distance. The pedestrian zone and sidewalks are very wheelchair accessible, as are many (but not all) of the shops and restaurants. Most of the shops and restaurants we visited were very welcoming and they made us feel like they were genuinely happy that we stopped in. The sea and boardwalk along the beach are extra bonuses. But bring a windproof jacket and a rain cape just in case!
One disappointment is the fact that the aquarium is closed and apparently has been for at least 2 years, and yet it is still on the tourist maps and websites. We really would have enjoyed the aquarium and we hope maybe it will be back again soon.
I travelled alone with 2 cats and took a family room so we would have enough space. The room was larger than expected, which was nice, with a lovely (and rather grand) terrace (the cats liked it). The hotel is not new but the room was very clean The staff (at the reception & breakfast, as well as the cleaning lady) were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good (I liked the vegetable milk and detox water as alternatives). Hotel close to the port and beach in rather green surroundings, loved that too. Would surely recommend it!
Great location. Apartment with large enough terrace to dine out on occasion. This is our third visit to Residhome Arcachon Plazza. Beautiful Town and the Residholme is in the centre of lovely shopping district, on the market square and close to the beach and train station for trips to Bordeaux. The staff are very helpful and we would highly recommend. A little luxury to remember.... Thank you Marc, Marion and Sebastian :-)
Breakfast not applicable, location superb for the beach, shops and market square only 8 minute walk away. Free parking a bit difficult to find in high season, but there is a private space where bikes can be stored under cover and several local bike hire shops nearby.
Property nice and clean, and well placed not to get over hot in summer.
What is there not to like about Arcachon ?
I stayed here one time before in 2019. I knew when I went back to Arcachon I wanted to stay in the same location. They have a laundry room, and the rooms are a good size and comfortable. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely a place we look forward to stay at. It’s close the the gare and the ocean, also just outside the market.
Great location in the centre of Arcachon, very close to beach and all the cafes / restaurants / ice cream places etc in the centre of town.
Nice room, plenty of space for us (though not huge rooms, however we had no trouble with three adults and three children, and our bikes in the room for safe-keeping!).
Location was perfect, very central, easy access to the centre of Arcachon. Very quiet block of flats. Flat was very clean and nicely decorated and very light (loved it). Terrace which was nice. Bedding was very good also.
Thank you Mireille, nice to meet you, very easy to get our keys and arrange a time.
Bright, clean room. A balcony too, always a bonus. The shower was brilliant with all the extra attachments. Loved the breakfast in the room at our leisure without all the faffing about that usually comes at breakfast. Good car parking right at hotel.
The staff was incredibly nice and helpful, it's a charming hotel and it's located in a less touristy part of Arcachon which I loved. It's located near the port neighborhood with plenty of restaurants nearby.
The hotel has been opened for about a month. It was a very pleasant experience and we had a great time. The interior
design of the hotel and rooms are beautiful. The staff was extremely helpful.
Excellent base for a few days in Arcachon - spacious and with all necessary facilities. Really great location within walking distance of everything in town. Nice outdoor area.
The location is amazing with proximity to the beach
Area has a lovely vibe for the walks along the seaside
The hotel has all you need for the perfect relaxing weekend
