The Ile de Re hotel
The Le Clos Saint Martin hotel is the only hotel in the town with a swimming pool (well 2 pools actually) and I can thoroughly recommend it. The Clos St.Martin is a fairly new hotel so the rooms are very clean and fresh, they’re not super stylish or anything like that but are perfectly comfortable. It’s the gardens and pools that make it really special. Yes, they do have parking but I think they charge extra for this.

Ile de Re tour
The Ile de Re is wonderful: quiet, nice beaches, wonderful seafood, lots of cycle ways and bikes for hire. Great place to take kids, enough for adults too. Read the rest of this page »
It’s really a collection of very pretty villages and beaches all linked together by some great bike paths. For a couple of days, though, you wouldn’t get too bored.
It’s very much a relaxing holiday – if you don’t like beaches, you can hang out at St Martin, which I liken to a small and less glitzy St Tropez. It’s a very upper-middle class family haunt – bring your Boden clothes – that you may enjoy if you like good food, drinking coffee, people-watching, cycling, walking and beaches. There are some museums or galleries, but probably only one morning’s worth.
