"What a great place to stay! The owners have created a fantastic environment to relax and the staff were uniformily pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was also very good. We highly recommend. "
"Beautiful cabanes which are very comfortable and well appointed. Some communal areas such as the swimming pools require a little maintenance. Overall good but lacking attention to detail expected at this price point. "
"The staff were all SO kind and the property and rooms were gorgeous. I wish we could have extended our trip just to have had more time there! As someone who lives on a horse ranch it felt like the French equivalent of being home. A wonderful stay all around! "
"There are so many good things to say about the place and the staff. It was an awesome stay!!! Our host was super helpful and we just loved every moment of our time. Close to everything and we will definitely be back. We highly recommend staying there if want a great place for a holiday."
"Perfect location. Right on the beach, very easy walking distance to the old Notre Dame church (don’t miss climbing up the tower), plenty of restaurants nearby and excellent access to the Carmargue nature areas. Slightly older hotel, but very comfortable, clean, safe, and delicious breakfast!!! "
"We found this strategic accommodation for several reasons and if you don't want a horse experience you probably won't need your car for a while.
Free public parking is within walking distance, ditto for the pedestrian city center, restaurants and beaches (wind if always treacherous).
Friendly staff, cleaning ok, perfect quality french style breakfast!
The standard room is decent, so why not?
We enjoyed our stay!"
"The owners were more than hospitable. Marie-Laurence treated me as if we'd been best friends. She was warm and charming. Fransico was also pleasant, went around his duties quietly but always with a smile. This couple has created an oasis out of a horse ranch. Some rooms, the pony stalls, therefore are small. Breakfast, not included, beautifully served on my front porch. "
"We enjoyed our stay, the staff was friendly and helpful. The reception, pool, and restaurant all closed at 19:30 or 20:00, which was a bit disappointing
/inconvenient. The mini fridge in our room was not functioning. Other than those minor complaints, our room was lovely, the views of horses were wonderful, and we enjoyed the on-site horse show. "
"a wonderful place. very authentic furnishings - true to France and the region, which has a lot in common with cowboy culture and Spanish missions. the surrounding terrain is beautiful and we had a nice horse ride through it.
famous films of the wild white horses of the Camargue were filmed here in the 50s."
"We (2 adults 2 children) had a really lovely stay. Family room was fantastic - super clean, very comfortable, fantastic bathroom. Hosts were kind and friendly and helpful. Such a delight to wake up with the birds and horses. Would love to go back. "
"Je conseille vraiment ce lieu magique et magnifique, l'accueil était d'une gentillesse extraordinaire, tout était parfait, je donne carrément un 25 sur 20...
L'attention Convivial était au rendez-vous par le propriétaire des lieux qui nous a fait nous sentir à l'aise.
La propreté et la décoration est excellente.
Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir..."

Top Plage des Arenas Hotel Reviews
Villa Mazarin Aigues Mortes
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful hotel,spacious room and bathroom, excellent bedding, welcoming staff.
We particularly enjoyed the swimming pool which was bigger than what we thought based on the pictures.
The courtyard is lovely spacious.
As onsite Parking was full when we checked in, the hotel lent us a discount card for a nearby parking which worked fine for us. Book parking ahead if you prefer to avoid walking.
If I had one recommendation to make would be for the hotel to find a solution for guests “reserving” sunbeds. In the end, we could not use them.

"Great location in easy walking distance to shops, restaurants and the beach. We also managed to find free on road patking, but there is also a paid car park nearby with camera security.
Joelle was so friendly and helpful with our check in and any other needs or questions we had. Thanks! "
"There was a very loud 'beach party' event, which happens every Tuesday. The noise reached rooms, and went on until very late. The event means no room service is available, and the only dining option was to join a loud party. This would be fine if wanting this type of experience, but while travelling for business, it was not ok. I feel like the hotel should warn guests at booking that this is happening so they can decide if it's what they're looking for.
Staff are rarely stationed at reception, and you have to wait for someone to spot you to come and help.
There were no irons in the rooms, and there were none available to use from housekeeping when needed - again, challenging as a business traveller."
"We had a wonderful time in May 2025 with our three boys ages 11, 9 and 7.
The club is beautiful and well maintained. Pools were perfect for our boys (4 pools in total if you count the kiddies pool separately).
We went to the buffet for breakfast and dinner every day. There was lots of variety but not so much that it was overwhelming. Breakfast included hot drinks and juice. Dinner included wine (self service) and water (still and sparkling).
There are two tennis courts, football pitch/basketball court, three table tennis tables and adventure playground to keep the kids entertained. All equipment can be borrowed from reception.
We flew into Nimes airport which is abut 40 minutes away. You can get a shuttle bus to/from the airport into Nimes centre and then a bus to/from Le Grau-Du-Roi or the hotel can book a taxi transfer (which is about €130) if you phone them to book before you arrive.
We were pretty much the only English family in the resort. Mainly French families staying there. Most of the staff speak fantastic English however in the local area it was a struggle with communicating as not a super touristy place for English. That being said, we managed at shops and restaurants and used Google translate when needed!
Our room was nice and comfortable. Compact but enough space. Stairs to upstairs was quite steep and narrow and could have done with a hand rail.
We honestly had the best time and would 100% recommend to families or anyone wanting to stay in this part of France."
