The beach and bar area was lovely. The shopping precint and cinema is next to the hotel. We went to visit the old U-Boat pens and museum which were very accessible. Our room over looked the pens.You can walk around the old pens and there is rooftop access on top of the pens and fortified lock so you get a panoramic view from both sides of the harbour. The submarine visit in the museum is excellent.

We enjoyed our stay; the room was fantastic inclusieve the terras. Nathalie, the landlady, is super! Friendly, helpfull, getting our breakfast ready early in the morning. Jam, cheese, fresh bread , coffee,… Highly recommanded and at a 9 min walking distance from the GR34 Thank you Nathalie for being the perfect host 😊

Where the apartment is, is a little seaside resort that has a number of restaurants and bars that cater for everyone. There are a few shops and one supermarket all in close proximity. The beaches are safe, clean and just beautiful. The sites in Saint Nazaire are approx a 15-20 minute drive and are worth a visit.

The port area was very interesting and the walks along the beach front were great. There were lots of beaches with plenty of room for everyone. There was a lot to see along the coast. The historic fortresses etc were of interest as were the several art installations, especially the sea serpent at St Brevin.

A good place to eat is near Place du Commando by the beach - it is called something like "Deshydrates", sells lots of good beers and serves some really nice short crust pizza type things called Breihzflammes. Superb. Visit the market hall, near the town centre. This a must if you want to try out some good, local, fresh produce. Prices can be a little high for meat and fish but hey, its all good stuff. If you want to hire a bike, go to City Bike, opposite the market hall. Don't go to the 'official' hire place near the station as the staff are rude and they expect you to print off a bank statement as proof of ID just so you can ride their precious bikes. City Bike has a really nice owner and rents out good bikes at a reasonable price. I totally recommend. For great beaches, go to Fort de L'eve and Monsieur Hulot, about 20 mins from St Naz by bus, or maybe a 30 min bike ride. Pornichet beach is nice but it gets super busy at peak summer times. Le Croisic is well worth a visit for a nice seaside stroll, and has many nice restaurants and shops. I recommend getting the train here.

There are some hidden beaches there that are not the easiest to find, but its definitely worth it. It is amazing. These are for those who like to chill and swim, in peace with a beautiful view. Also some other beaches where you can find bars, restaurants and playgrounds right next to the beach. I would highly recommend it to families, friends, couples. There are a lot of things to do for everyone while it is not crowded (that is probably one of the best thing about it).
