La Californienne

La Californienne is rented as a whole: the 200 m² villa has four separate bedrooms, four bathrooms and two living rooms. It can accommodate up to nine people. Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, while the shared spaces offer room to gather for meals or relax after a day by the sea. Sleeping arrangements include double beds, a very large double bed, a single bed and sofa beds.

The well-equipped kitchen includes a fridge, oven, dishwasher, microwave, kettle and coffee machine. The villa also has a bath and a shower. Soundproofed windows, a private entrance and views of the sea, garden, pool or mountains complete the accommodation. The terrace and private pool extend the living spaces outdoors.

La Californienne has facilities for enjoying both the indoor spaces and the garden. The private pool has a bar and a shallow end, with sun loungers and parasols around it. A sunny terrace, outdoor furniture and a dining area make it possible to eat outdoors, with a barbecue available. A picnic area completes the outdoor facilities.

Activities include table tennis, badminton equipment and water sports facilities on site. The accommodation also offers snorkelling, scuba diving, canoeing, windsurfing, cycling and hiking. Indoors, the kitchen includes an oven, hob, fridge, dishwasher, microwave and coffee machine. A flat-screen TV and cable channels are also available. Private parking is free, and Wi-Fi is free throughout the villa.

Carqueiranne is a seaside commune in the Var, between Toulon and Hyères, where residential neighbourhoods meet beaches and pine-covered hills. La Californienne is set among creeks, gardens and hills; local life revolves around the sea, coastal walks and water sports. This stretch of coast suits travellers who want to alternate swimming with excursions into the Provençal hinterland.

Carqueiranne village is 1.9 km away. The seafront and Péno Beach are accessible from the commune, while Almanarre Beach attracts windsurfers and kitesurfers. The Olbia archaeological underwater trail offers a chance to discover the area's underwater heritage. Hyères has an old town with narrow, historic streets, as well as Villa Noailles, known for its architecture and exhibitions. Hyères railway station is 3.1 km away and Toulon-Hyères Airport is 3.1 km away; a car makes it easier to get between the beaches and nearby attractions.

In summer, warm days invite you to enjoy the coast early in the morning or in the late afternoon, when the light changes over the sea. The mistral can make some days windy: it is favourable for sailing sports, while swimming can be less pleasant. Spring and September generally bring pleasant temperatures for walking the coastal path and visiting Hyères without being limited to beach hours. You can spend the morning by the water, stroll through old Hyères and return to Carqueiranne to enjoy the garden.
