“What stands out here is a family-run atmosphere right on the beach, paired with a bistro that serves fresh, local seafood alongside French classics; the result is a personable stay with satisfying dining. I especially like the sound of updated sea-view rooms and the unique fisherman's huts for lodging. With its blend of attentive service and seaside charm, I think it has a distinct appeal.”
