Holiday homes & rentals in Biarritz

Holiday lettings in gorgeous Biarritz reflect this coastal destination's chic luxury. Most lettings are modern apartments, decorated simply to keep things bright and airy. Many of the flats offer balconies and sea views, and are within a short, often walking, distance to the beach. Some Biarritz lettings also have private pools.

Eating in Basque country

Pintxos (Basque tapas) are likely the most well-known example of Basque cuisine, and Biarritz's most popular restaurants reflect a combination of Basque, French, and Spanish flavours. Head to Les Halles for a variety of market stalls. Crampotte 30 is a lively tapas bar, while Txango offers contemporary French cuisine. Beach Garden is ideal for a light, healthy lunch by the sea.

Surf, style, and culture

Since its earliest days as a popular destination, the town of Biarritz has attracted visitors for its glorious sun and surf. However, there are a number of museums ideal for the occasional cloudy day. Visit the Musée Asiatica for its incredible collection of sculptures and other art from China, Tibet, India, and more.

Your whole family will enjoy a visit to the Biarritz Aquarium and City of the Ocean. The former is home to an array of sea life, including sharks, seals, and octopuses, while the latter offers interactive, entertaining educational exhibits. The institutions are about a ten minute drive apart from each other, and you can purchase combined tickets, should you wish.

Celebrating by the sea

Biarritz plays host to a number of festivals throughout the year. In July, music lovers can attend the BIG Festival, which sees an array of international bands hit the beach in a series of concerts. Biarritz en Lumières sees the town beautifully lit up at the end of December. The Biarritz Fête au Port, at the end of July and beginning of August, lets you enjoy the dual pleasures of freshly grilled fish and music in the streets.
