Everyone involved with this apartment cares about your stay. It's apparent a lot of love went into decorating here. The owners also provided helpful information about Arcachon. The apartment feels very private. It's a 15-20 minute walk left to Thiers Jetty and similar walk to the right to L'Aiguillon area. A fantastic boulangerie almost across the street, and the entrance to the beach - I think Plage d'Eyrac - only a 5 minute walk. This is a very high quality experience. In a compact space that didn't feel confined, we had all we needed or would want: great kitchen and appliances, including a dishwasher, good shower with ample hot water, the bed, pillows and bedding really comfortable. A large washer/dryer, beautiful outdoor space, and a secure parking spot outside. The one negative here is, when I made the reservation, I thought the listing said there was air conditioning. We know from traveling in SW France in the past, Summer brings heat waves. And it did. There is a Dyson fan, but we needed to go out and buy additional fans and made sure we kept all window shades 2/3 to fully closed even while we were there. Disappointing since the "green" view outside is lovely. One night I took a cool shower in the middle of the night to cool down. My partner is Dutch, we understand Air conditioning in Europe. But it may be time to rethink this given changes in weather. Otherwise, a very high quality apartment and positive experience with the owners and the charming housekeeper. Merci!
