Large atypical house in the town center near the market, 5 minutes of beach

Just a short distance from the ocean, this family-friendly vacation home lets you experience it all. Bay of Biscay is just steps away and Office de Tourisme de Saint-Denis d'Oleron is within an easy 6-minute walk, so leave your car at the property, which offers covered onsite parking.

Spend some time at the nearby beach (enjoy the sun loungers!), relax by the heated pool, or sip a drink in the garden of this vacation home, which also features a deck or patio. As for the great indoors, you can try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi, cable/satellite TV, and stereo.

As you settle into this 6-bedroom, 4-bathroom rental, you'll find a BBQ grill and a fireplace. You can also use the jetted bathtub, plus other bathroom amenities like toilet paper and a hair dryer. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and an ice maker. And you can even pack a bit lighter because there's a washer and dryer.
