The apartment is exactly as described but seems bigger than the photos show. It was decorated really nicely and was lovely and clean. It's in a quiet area, but a quick walk into town or to the train/bus. During our stay the other neighbours in the apartment block were also quiet. Bernard and his wife met us at the bus stop when we arrived in from the airport and walked us to the apartment 5minutes away. They took time to show us how everything worked and gave us a map of the town and had plenty of leaflets showing places to visit nearby. The balcony of the apartment enjoys a view to the trains passing by and our teenage son greatly enjoyed sitting there in the morning and evening watching them (it's not noisy though, so don't worry). There is a lovely bakery very close to the apartment so you can enjoy fresh baked goodies each day! Don't miss the fast sporting action of Cesta Punta if you are visiting in July/August - it is just a short walk away from the apartment at the Jai Allai. The festival with the evening music at the bandstand and confetti was also lots of fun. There is also a really nice daily morning market in the town and we visited there a number of times. St Jean de Luz itself is really welcoming to all age groups and we found it to be very family oriented. Thanks for being great hosts, Bernard and Florence!
