Vacanceole: your sea holiday accommodation

Forget about beach holidays where all you can do is sunbathe on the beach and take a dip from time to time to alleviate your guilty conscience! By renting sea holiday accommodation in a Vacanceole establishment, you can be sure that there will be something for the whole family to enjoy, with so many activities on offer along the coastline: a relaxing break for you on the golden sands, kitesurfing or sand yachting for your love, blowing off some steam at the kids’ club for the youngest of the group, and snorkelling for the older ones. Unless you’re the one who feels like trying your hand at some water skiing, while your other half takes it easy at the pool of your seaside holiday residence!

And if you feel like getting lost on the back roads, little villages are worth the trip, full of residents who are proud of their local culture! Castles, citadels, fortresses, churches and extraordinary gardens await, you’ll be blown away. All that’s left is to choose a destination for your holidays by the sea!

Holiday cottages by the sea all over France 

Vacanceole has a wide range of sea holiday accommodation on offer, in the areas of France most loved by holidaymakers: Aquitaine, Brittany, Provence… The seas and oceans are ready to welcome you with open arms.

Discover the Mediterranean coast with its fields of lavender and its cicadas, make the most of the sunshine by choosing a seaside holiday let with a pool for your holidays in the South of France by the sea. Between an apartment in Frejus, in Var, a room in Cagnes-sur-Mer, in the Alpes Maritimes you’ll be spoiled for choice.

The Atlantic Coasts is all about marshes, dunes and forests: will you prefer Aquitaine with a holiday apartment in Lacanau or Biscarrosse, or the French Basque Country with a holiday house in Bayonne?

In the Pays de la Loire, Vendee won’t be outdone with its islands, coves and the Puy du Fou. Try your hand at surfing the waves off the coast of La Tranche sur Mer or Les Sables d’Olonne.

Just north of there, Brittany is home to a number of holiday cottages by the sea. Let yourself be charmed by a holiday house in Vannes, an apartment with a sheltered pool in Dinan, or even a 4-star hotel in Dinard, beside its superb beach. If you’re dreaming of a holiday with family or friends in this land of legends, it’s the perfect location for booking your seaside holiday residence with a kids’ club!

Clear skies on your holidays by the sea!

You risk ending up with a few grains of sand between your toes, but that’s all you’ll have to worry about at your seaside holiday residence! Except of course whether to treat yourself to an artisanal ice cream cone before or after you’ve laid out your beach towel. What activity will you choose for the best memories of your seaside holiday accommodation:

• Lounging in the sun or laps in the sea?
• Building the most beautiful sand castle with the children, or relaxing with a good book?
• Kite surfing or wind surfing?
• Paddle boarding or sand yachting?
• A swimrun or an aquatic walk?
• A round of golf or hiking the coastal trails?
• Shore fishing or a boat trip?
• A stop off at the local market or the fish market at dawn?
• Visiting the most beautiful heritage sites or walking through a rural village? 

There are so many activities on offer nearby your seaside holiday accommodation that it’s difficult to name them all. And it’ll be difficult for you to fit them all in during your stay at your seaside holiday village! 

Holiday villages, hotels or even residences for your seaside holidays?

You’ll be spoiled for choice for your seaside holiday residence. Let yourself be charmed by a comfortable villa with sea views: perfect for walks down to the beach! You can even enjoy a private pool. You can also choose a small apartment with a balcony located in a comfortable establishment, like the residence Le Domaine du Mont***, right beside the Mont Saint Michel. Unless you’d be more interested in a mobile home, a bungalow or pitching up on a campsite, for seaside holiday accommodation that’s peaceful and close to nature. 

How about some sea holiday accommodation with a pool? Between seawater and freshwater, you won’t know where to take a dip! Holiday accommodation in Herault near the Spanish border, like the residence Le Saint Clair**, gets our vote. As for the residence Le Terral*** in Montpellier, it even includes a wellbeing area. 

A majority of Vacanceole residences offer seaside holiday lets with kids’ clubs during the school holidays! Entertainers are on hand to organise activities that your little darlings of all ages won’t be able to resist. They’ll be anything but bored! 

Many of our Vacanceole holiday residences have also obtained their Green Key label, which means that your holidays in the sun can also be eco-friendly. And we’re not just talking about recycling while on holiday: reducing water and energy use, using local suppliers... As a direct result of this label, some of our eco-friendly seaside holiday accommodation has been recognised by the French League for the Protection of Birds.
