Tucked away in a peaceful Atlantic cove west of Bordeaux, Villa Le Bassin is an exceptional beachfront estate offering a rare blend of luxury, privacy and natural beauty. Surrounded by a lush Zen-inspired garden and expansive parkland, the villa enjoys breathtaking views across Arcachon Bay towards Cap Ferret, with direct access to a sandy beach just beyond the grounds. Whether for unforgettable family holidays, special celebrations or elegant retreats, this remarkable home provides a truly unique setting.
The historic property has been beautifully restored to a high standard, combining original character with contemporary comfort. It accommodates up to 15 guests across eight refined bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. Several rooms retain original marble fireplaces, while the spectacular tower suite features 360-degree floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic sea and forest views. Thoughtful touches include air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi throughout and accessibility features, including a ramp leading to key living areas and one of the bedrooms.
The interiors are both stylish and welcoming. A spacious living room flows into an elegant dining area with magnificent sea views, opening onto a covered terrace and arched verandah. A two-way fireplace connects the dining space with the fully equipped kitchen, creating a warm atmosphere for shared meals. A pine-panelled library, office space, wellness areas for yoga and massage, and a versatile home cinema that doubles as a meeting room add to the villa’s versatility.
Outdoors, the estate is equally impressive. The ecological swimming pool, filled with natural spring water and designed to resemble a tranquil lake, sits alongside a large sun deck with sweeping coastal views. Guests can enjoy pétanque, al fresco dining under the pergola, or simply relax in the beautifully landscaped gardens. The beach is just steps away, offering swimming, sailing, surfing and boating excursions, making Villa Le Bassin a truly extraordinary coastal retreat.
