  This hotel is all about location. With direct access to the beach and far reaching views across the water to the Île d'Oléron. If you love sunsets, this is the place to come. There is a waterside swimming pool and lawn overlooking the beach which is a lovely spot to relax. A special mention to the staff who were all very friendly throughout our stay. The room was bright and clean with a comfortable bed, a separate WC and shower room. Air conditioning has been installed but we did not seem to get it to work - it was 28c and the room was very warm. The room also has a kettle with a couple of mugs, a small fridge and some water which was good. We loved sitting out on the balcony and enjoying an amazing sunset after dinner. We had dinner on the terrace with the sun setting - this really was a stunning location. The did a set price 3 course meal for about €36 a head. We really enjoyed both the taste and presentation of the food. The views were stunning as the sun began to set. We both started with a poached beetroot on a mousse of goats cheese, followed by main of prawns with rice and chicken on crushed potatoes. Deserts were delicious, a coffee and chocolate profiterole and a chocolate and peach tart. We had a bottle of lovely cold, crisp Muscadet - Bonnets Blancs. Service was very attentive and it was a lovely meal. Breakfast was OK, however they were running low on croissants etc and the orange juice machine was causing problems. Not sure it was worth paying 15€ each. There is a small car park, and street parking outside the hotel. I booked direct with the hotel and on arrival there seemed some confusion about our booking - despite me showing the confirmation email. We were eventually allocated room 16 which was a superior seaside room (the grade we had booked). It did feel a bit small, but the view was wonderful and it was not over the restaurant so more peaceful.

  We stayed at Le Grand Chalet for one night. Our double room with sea view was beautiful. Very modern chic and we loved the decor. Our patio deck was so spacious and the view towards the garden, pool and ocean was stunning. A few steps down and we were at the sandy beach. The bed was unbelievable comfortable and big. Very spacious bathroom. Coffeemaker and AC are great features. The breakfast buffet at the restaurant is unbelievable, with fresh squeezed orange juice made to order and delicious croissants. High quality coffee and tea. The location of the hotel is perfect. Right at the beach and just a 3min stroll to downtown, where we found some cute souvenirs and had an ice cream break. Hotel Staff was very friendly and helpful. Top to bottom the place was outstanding. Our stay was superb, and we would like to stay again for a longer time.

  Lovely hotel right on the beach. Great staff and service. Seaside decor and very smart bar and terrace really fits in with the surroundings too - contemporary and relaxing. Best hotel on the front I reckon. Dog and cycle friendly. Breakfast and dinner = superb, fresh and dedicated to Poitou-Charentes.
