Castelbrac

A smart-as-a-pin retreat right on the sea... The pallet is straight-up ocean, with pleasing nautical touches in every nook and cranny, porthole windows and chic art-deco tiles. Bag a room with an absurdly big terrace - although you won't want to leave your enormous freestanding bath..

Every room has a glorious view of the bay with its bustle of lavish yachts, fishing boats and children in dinghies learning to sail. Run by a dynamic, friendly team, Castelbrac feels a bit like someone's home and no room would be out of place in a private villa.
