Short City Break Holidays - Hotels in the Vendee

Hotels in the Vendee
Boasting over 140km of sandy beaches, the Vendée features some of the best places to holiday in France.

Saint Jean de Monts, Saint Gilles Croix-de-Vie, Les Sables d’Olonne and further south La Tranche sur Mer are probably the main coastal resorts, and all have their own appeal.

Saint Jean de Monts enjoys 8km of attractive beaches and coves. The resort itself is very touristy and has every possible activity on offer. The nearby waterpark of Atlantic Toboggan is great fun for the kids.

Saint Gilles Croix-de-Vie is a quieter seaside resort and port. This is a charming village with 3.5km of sandy beaches, the main beach is located on the north side.

Les Sables d’Olonne was the first yachting harbour in France and is a lively, picturesque resort with a 3km long main beach. Away from the hustle and bustle of the beach are several museums, the bird watching observatory and the Parc Zoologique.

La Tranche sur Mer is one of the prettiest, unspoilt resorts in France and lies just south of Les Sables d’Olonne. Boasting 8km of south facing beaches, the village has a quaint Mediterranean charm and enjoys a thriving market on Tuesdays and Saturdays. The town centre is fully pedestrianised and offers a full array of restaurants, bars and shops.
