Villa Le Clos du Reine – Forest, Lake, Ocean & Pool (sleeps 12)

Close to sailing, windsurfing, and more, this pet-friendly villa brings it all within reach. Médoc Natural Regional Park is just a short walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make the 23-minute drive to Carcans Beach.

Relax by the communal pool or sip a drink in the garden of this 1830-sq-ft villa, which also features outdoor furniture and a fitness center. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the WiFi and cable/satellite TV.

A dining area, a BBQ grill, and air conditioning are featured at this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental. Bathroom amenities include towels and toilet paper. 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 a microwave. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
