We found Guéthary to be a nice surprise along our vacation route - easy going, friendly, with several wild beaches to explore and a couple of good restaurants that were open this time of year. Maarten's place captured the vibe of Guéthary perfectly and we felt right at home! Comfortable, firm beds - functional and artfully accessorized living spaces - a good sized kitchen with everything we needed. And, like other guests, we loved the pottery for everyday use! The potter's studio is in town, though she's on vacation until this spring. The neighborhood was quiet and walkable. We never had to use our car, because the local train has stops up-and-down the coast. We couldn't have been happier; in fact, we've already booked another stay!
