Choosing a hotel in the Camargue? 5 key tips for a memorable experience

The Camargue is a unique region that recently made you say, "This is where we're spending our next vacation!". How do you choose your hotel in the Camargue? There are plenty of hotels to choose from. But how can you be sure of choosing the right one? This article will give you five key tips to make your stay unforgettable. For example, did you know that four-star hotels offer more than just luxurious accommodation?

Tip 1: Choose the right location for your hotel in the Camargue

The hotel environment is key

Consider the hotel's location and proximity to tourist attractions and restaurants: make sure it's close to the main sites of interest in the Camargue. A word of advice: choose a hotel close to the beach, old towns and nature reserves, to make the most of your stay.

Ease of access is also an essential criterion when choosing your hotel in the Camargue.

You should also consider how easy it is to get to, especially if you're planning to visit the Camargue by car. Ask yourself the following questions: how easy is it to get to the hotel by car? Is parking free? And if you're not planning to come by car, is the hotel close enough to the airports? Is it easy to rent a car once you're here? What about public transport? How easy is it to get around this region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur?

Tip 2: Check the facilities available in your hotel

What are your needs and expectations of your accommodation solution, in terms of comfort and wellness facilities? A swimming pool can be a big plus, but don't forget that many hotels also offer their own SPA, potentially with a range of treatments or massages, so you can relax after a day spent exploring or cycling .

Tip 3: Ensure the quality and diversity of your catering service

A restaurant serving local specialties will be an added value during your stay in Les Saintes-Maries-de-La-Mer. Check out the restaurants around the hotel, or if there's a dedicated restaurant where you can eat. You probably won't want to stray too far after a day of exploring. Or if you need more comfort for a day dedicated entirely to relaxation, sunbathing by the pool. If so, what type of kitchen will it offer? Is it typically French or Mediterranean, with local specialties to be enjoyed at every meal? Our restaurants give you the choice: local cuisine, on-the-go, or in a semi-gastronomic restaurant.

Tip 4: Check that the rooms are comfortable

What amenities are offered in the bedrooms? If it's just a TV, don't bother. The Camargue is a hot region, and nights can be miserable in summer without air conditioning. Make sure your room is equipped with air-conditioning, to avoid an exhausting stay! Also check the quality of Wi-Fi and bedding. A 4-star hotel like ours saves you the trouble. Seeing the rooms photographed from every angle can reassure you of the quality of the service: plenty of space, a room that breathes, natural light, and delicately sober, luxurious decor ensure that you'll be looking after your eyes as well as your back!

Tip 5: Don't book without listing all the activities you can do on site

Ask about local events or festivals taking place during your stay. Finally, booking a stay in the Camargue without allowing yourself the opportunity to observe the rich local wildlife, breathtaking landscapes, or walks, bike rides, horseback rides, or even boat trips... would be a real shame. Our Camargue hotel, a 4-star resort located in Les Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, in the heart of the Camargue nature park, and close to Marseille and Montpellier airports, obviously follows all this advice, and will enable you to make the most of your stay.
