We had a great time staying at Xavier's little house in Anglet.
Xavier was welcoming, but not intrusive. When an unexpected problem arose for us, he dealt with it quickly and did everything he could to help us. He has a warm personality, and made us feel welcome.
The house is quite secluded, despite its central location. It's situated back from the busy road with narrow sidewalks, and behind the house is a lush garden. A private deck goes around two sides of the house, and provides lots of indoor/outdoor space. The sliding glass doors heighten the feeling that you're living in nature, but you're not camping. It's much more comfortable than that.
The beach is about a 10 minute walk from the front door, mostly down a pedestrian/bike path. Within easy walking distance you will find a good boulangerie, boucherie, tabac, wine merchant, and supermarket.
The house is nicely decorated and furnished, and not too cluttered. The style is personal, unusual, and casual. The kitchen has everything you should need in order to cook a good meal, including lots of Indonesian and other Asian spices. The beds are comfortable. Four of us stayed in the house (two couples) and there was plenty of space for us.
We'd like to stay in this house again someday. I recommend it to you.
