Chadotel La Dune des Sables

General

It's a lovely, natural site with good facilities, right next to the best sunset-viewing beach we know.

The shop and cafe were both unexpectedly closed.

General

I came to have a quiet relaxing holiday but able to go out and about. I achieved all this where I was able to relax and swim on the site , plus I achieved a lot of walking and cycling in the surrounding area.

More information about events in the surrounding area.

General

Right next to the sea. Pool was lovely and warm. Pitch a good size.

More staff at reception needed. It took us nearly an hour to book in as there was only 1 person until nearly an hour had gone by. Facilities were closed.

General

Lovely mobile in a perfect pitch. As it was end of season the site was very peaceful & the pool area not busy 😎

None!

General

Near beach

The music was far too loud till 1pm you could still hear it. Bought a hamburger for €14 waited 50 minutes and to get it back to the van the bun was stale and crumbling had to bin it. Rip off. Never bought any more food on site. On boiling days there was no ice left for drinks from bar..not 5 star service at all. Pool closed due to seaweed? impersonal atmosphere too corporate and the main thing no shelter. You need trees or some form of shelter over the play area. No children wanting to hang out as no shade. Everyone can see and hear everyone business not at all private. Sorry we won’t back

General

Pool is great, location near the beach is amazing, only a few minutes walk. Perfect site.

More activities like exercise classes

General

Perfect location on the beach and 10/15 mins cycle into the town. Facilities were very clean and of a good standard.

Quite a lively site with lots of late teens sat out on their pitches until 2/3am but not Too much bother and far enough away to not hear them. Always. Long queue at reception with only one staff member.

General

View of the sea

Everything feels tired and poorly maintained. Massively overpriced.

General

Direct access to beautiful beach. Large bar and snack bar. It is a busy site with reasonable but not large pitches. Would return

General

Nicely close to the beach, helpful

Seemed to be more 'resort', longer term stays in campervans. A bit loud when you're trying to sleep in a tent.

General

This campsite is a lovely spot to have a chilled time away from the stresses and strains of normal life. The campsite is situated right on the coast with superb walks in either direction. If you cycle it is a fantastic base for exploring the Vendee coastline. The campsite itself is a lovely quiet site with a nice pool and bar area. There is also a small shop, restaurant and takeaway on hand for your basic provisions. A supermarket is within 5 minutes drive and the resort of Le Sables D'Olonne is just over 10 minutes drive away. We have just returned from a 2 week break at the campsite.

I don't really think there is a lot to improve. As UK holidaymakers, we disagree with other reviewers demanding more English to be spoken. You are on holiday in France! Make an effort to learn some basic French!!

The accommodation was brilliant

The rip off cost of cleaning ie emptying bins €160 absolutely disgusted and won’t ever use your company again !!!

General

Very quiet when we visited with possibly 10 other vans and a handful of mobile homes occupied. The electricity was not working when we arrived however this was fixed later that evening. The staff in reception were very welcoming. The site is not located close to any shops within walking distance a Leclerc supermarket is a 5 minute drive. Bread and pastries can be ordered the night before. An easy drive into the town for shopping etc. Good access to the beach which is dog friendly and good pathways over the dunes or on designated walking area alongside the coastal road.

The campsite is exactly as described so no comments. The price per night reflects the private sanitary pitches.

General

Fantastic pitch & facilities. Great quality food from the snack bar. Friendly staff. Motorhome pitches very tranquil (early May visit). Stunning sunsets from West facing pitches & the beach which is minutes away.

General

Views from our pitch, clean facilities

Mini market wasn’t open Urinals in the toilets visible to females in the toilet block

General

Great location looking out to sea. Services clean and in very good condition

General

aucun auquel je puisse penser

General

Good access to beach

General

Very close to the beach, great shower facilities, all very clean. Lovely swimming pool. Bouncy castle and park for the children was great. Laundry facilities good and efficient.

Service in the restaurant was not great. Long wait for our order, especially the dessert, no glasses brought for the wine, despite asking a few times - I had to go to the bar to ask for some myself. No cutlery brought with dessert and again didn't bring a spoon even when asked. Not much stock in the shop.

General

Campsite very nice and friendly and quiet ,

Pitches could be levelled more especially the sea view .

General

It is awonderful place!

General

Fantastic

General

On a apprécié la vue du soir Et on a apprécié la petite terrasse avec la petite cuisine pour les randonneurs (on ne sait pas trop si on en avait le droit).

Il n’y avait aucun coin d’ombre sans l’hôtel. Nous sommes un groupe de cyclistes, 3 adultes et 3 enfants, et nous avons trouvé cela difficile. Nous aurions aimé. Plus de coins d’ombres à accès libre dans les parties communes. Également plus d’ombre autour de la piscine aurait été apprécié, par exemple avec plus de parasols. L’accès à la plage aurait été plus facile avec un code au portillon. Le système de clé n’est pas optimal. « Rupture de stock » pour le papier toilettes. Pour un camping 5 étoiles, cela reste très surprenant. La supérette n’était pas très achalandée.

General

Excellent site, very close to beach, good facilities, well laid out. Accomodation was clean and well thought out, excellent decking with furniture for eating out, shaded, it was reaching 35 degrees,

Shop is not the best, very basic, order bread the day before and not open on Mondays.

General

Nice campsite, lovely pool area, toilets /shower blocks kept spotlessly clean

Little shop could be better stocked

General

Easy access - friendly staff - straight onto the beach for a swim, out onto the trails for run and onto quiet roads and cycle paths on the bike!

General

We had a great three night stay at La Dune de Sables. The proximity to the beach is it's biggest selling point for us and the campsite itself is well equipped and the pool area is great. Nice pizzas too.

Had a week here had a pitch on the front almost on the beach which was worth the extra . Its in a fantastic location especially if you have bikes . Facilities all good showers are hot. Pool area is lovely but as you expect it gets busy. Super market 15 mins away on the bike ... Good motorhome area get your water before you go to pitch . Nice bar what more would you want

General

Lovely quiet campsite and also had good weather

General

Friendly staff. Very good and clean facilities. Close to beach. Restaurant on site.

Was all pretty good. Poor chap in restaurant was having to do everything and needed a helper.

General

This is a beautiful site with great facilities, and close proximity to both the town of Sables D’Olonne and the incredible ‘sunset beach’ that adjoins the site. Our second year here, and we’ll be back.

General

The site was clean and well kept. Close to the beach. Friendly, helpful staff.clean mobile homes, everything you need for a good holiday.

We didn’t fell anything needed improvement.mobile home

General

Very clean accommodation, lovely pool, and beach access - ideal for watching the sunsets.

Pitches a bit close together. Some colourful shrubs and plants would be nice. Pizzas were lovely but the wait for them was often more than 2 hours! It was great to have a small shop on site but it would have been better if it stocked more groceries.

General

Very clean, very cosy camp site, excellent Restaurant

More green grass at the tent pitches

General

My stay was very enjoyable. Good location to pool & main centre. Staff were very helpful.

Power kept tripping up to 8 times in one day. No Kettle to boil water !

General

The nature, the direct access to the beach, the friendly people and good atmosphere.

General

Perfect location with direct access to a long unspoilt beach. The large swimming pool was warm with separate pools for children with slides and there were plenty of sun beds. Great bar, restaurant and patio area overlooking the pool. Very clean separate toilet and shower blocks with generous space.

The 2 steps leading onto the deck with the boat outside the toiles needs a light as it is pitch dark when trying to step down them at night.

General

Beautiful clean site with a lovely peaceful location.

General

Very clean and not commercial and friendly staff

A fee more facilities
