There are no words to describe how much I loved Mathieu's place in Biarritz. I was there with a group of friends celebrating one of our engagements and every single one of us fell in love with Biarritz and realized we'd been living all wrong. Every day we'd dream up different ways that we could change our lives and start again in Basque Country. We were so enthralled with the place we even extended our trip by a few days!
From mathieu's you're about 10 minutes walking from the best beaches and 15/20 from the heart of town. Everything you put in your mouth is delicious, everyone you talk to is nice, and there are even some very hip boutiques and concept stores if you're in need of retail therapy.
Most of the time though we opted for barbecuing in mathieu's huge garden and having apéro on his roof deck at sunset. Sophie, who greets you on arrival, is well connected in town and can immediately hook you up with surfing and yoga classes and even a very affordable massage at the Airbnb!
Anyway I couldn't love this place more and I'm hoping to go there every summer from now on.
Thank you Mathieu--5 stars!
