Sound of waves

Spent two weeks at this site. Pitches were smaller than we have been used to and can be quite tight getting onto your pitch. We had a great location pitch down towards the beach end, a few metres through the key card access gate and down a steepish flight of steps and we were on the fabulous beach. The waves were variable each day but could be very strong at times-taking you off your feet. Lifeguards were present until 6pm. Can walk along beach to a snack bar and a fish restaurant during the day although the tide comes in and cuts off  beach at night so not an option for evening meal.  Very clean and well stocked shop, restaurant seemed busy (we only had drinks). No bins onsite you have to take your rubbish up to the main entrance. Plenty of toilets in a separate block to the showers and wash cubicles (same throughout the site) Modern push button showers which could be busy at peak times. Wifi-20 euros for 2 weeks done online with a credit card. Signal poor on our pitch better by restaurant and toilets. Only one table tennis table. Pool area nice-pool cold and busy at times sometimes with sunbed shortage. Daughter adds it’s a suntrap –she burnt! Few parasols available. Free bus service –(bus stop 5 mins walk from reception) to Bidart (7min bus trip) and Biarritz (15 min) –vouchers collected from reception-exchanged for tickets on the bus which lasted for 24hours (no limit on the vouchers). The bus service was also trialling a night service over the summer so the buses ran almost 24 hours.  Bidart is a small but pretty village with a few eateries off the square-we ate in one on the square –looking for a traditional meal which we thought was poor but later had a meal in the very popular pizzeria just up the hill (booking advised) Lovely views on the outside terrace over the valley. Biarritz is much larger with an array of shops and eateries-we had a lovely walk along the front towards the old port and fishing cottages. We had drinks beer, Gin and tonic and two cokes-27 euros as a guide. We had a basic meal for 4 which was 100 euros with drinks- probably need to spend more for a good quality meal.  Site on the whole was quiet late on apart form one night-though security quickly arrived at 11pm and the noise ended. Would return.
