Cap Club Hotel

Overlooking the Golf de Goscogne (ATLANTIC)

by ViajesdelMundo about Le PLAYER's LOUNGE at Cap Club Hotel

The restaurant is quite up-scale; in general we enjoyed the ambiance altho we were there shortly before the season got into swing, so not many people were around. The weather was lovely, though, and an almost cloudless sky.
We were served a beginning hors'doeurve of a seafood/caviar tiny drink! Scrumptious. Each course was elaborately designed on the plate, the service was good. The entree was fresh white asparagas, very delicious! We ordered the plat du jour; mine being lamb chops which were very good, and my husband ordered fish, but had to send it back once, as it was not cooked thru, and the second time it too was underdone, but by then, he was too hungry and my meal was finished. But when we told the waitress, she just shrugged it off. As we live on the water and go fishing and frequently cook and eat many types of fish, we do know when it needs just a minute or two more, so it was disappointing, especially as no concession in price was made. Otherwise, it was a lovely meal.

FRENCH BEACH HOLIDAY

by ViajesdelMundo

We diverted off the main highway through Capbreton on our way from Bilbao, Spain to Bordeaux. We drove thru a lot of the neighborhoods which were still very quiet and looked around at various beaches and then went up to the commercial area that was open, and had lunch at the Cap Club Hotel (see Tip).

I would love to come back and see the area in full season!

Most of the homes were still closed up, due to the season not yet being started.

There are a couple different RV parking areas with facilities (water, etc.) near the beach, and even though not full season, a few, mostly surfers, were taking advantage of the great weather.
