Collection Rivages Le Phare (Ile de Ré)

Take a refreshing dip in the heated outdoor pool or get carried away on the gentle currents of the lazy river. While the sun shines over the island, children splash in the safe paddling pool, complete with play elements and shallow water. For those who prefer to relax indoors, there is the stylish indoor pool. Here the wooden beamed ceiling and warm water create a soothing atmosphere. The Jacuzzi, powerful water jets and a flow channel offer plenty of wellness moments, while the light filtered through the large windows creates a pleasant, natural ambiance. Comfortable loungers await you around the pools, from which you can look out over the surrounding marshes. Fancy sand between your toes? Just steps away is a wide sandy beach, ideal for a morning swim, a game of beach volleyball or a relaxing sunset stroll.

There is something for everyone at Collection Rivages Le Phare (Ile de Ré). Children can expend their energy at the kids and teens club, where creative workshops and sports activities are organised. Teens meet up at sports tournaments or creative activities specially designed for their age group. While the little ones are having fun, take part in a yoga session under the trees or work up a sweat in the modern gym. A game of beach volleyball or petanque completes the holiday spirit. Evening, enjoy pure flavours in the Coucou restaurant, where regional products are the basis for surprisingly tasty dishes. Family-friendly, casual and with a menu full of goodies for every taste. Afterwards, the Airstream bar is a popular place to end the day. With a cocktail in hand, look out over the golden salt fields as the sun slowly sinks into the sea.

Who wants to experience the Île de Ré right?  Then get on a bike. You can easily hire them on-site. You can ride the network of bike paths that will take you through fragrant pine forests, over bridges and past salt pans. Along the way, you will pass small markets, wineries and viewpoints where you will stop for a picnic or a photo. The bird sanctuary near the campground is a paradise for nature lovers: with a little luck, you will spot unusual migratory birds or a colony of flamingos. An absolute highlight is the Phare des Baleines lighthouse. Climb the 257 steps and be surprised by a panoramic view of the island and the ocean. In need of some culture and conviviality? Then pay a visit to Saint-Martin-de-Ré. Its colourful facades, cosy harbour and cobblestone streets make for an atmospheric outing. With terraces, boutiques and historic charm, this is a place where you will continue to marvel.
