L'Hippocampe Hotel Plouharnel

Review by hotel critic

During our recent family vacation at L'Hippocampe, we found the experience to be a delightful blend of relaxation and exploration. The hotel, impeccably maintained, provided a welcoming atmosphere, essential for families. Clean rooms equipped with USB ports ensured we stayed connected while enjoying our time away from home. We spent mornings by the small pool, shaded by palm trees, where our children joyfully played. The continental breakfast offered a simple yet pleasant start to our days. One of the highlights was our visit to the nearby oyster farms. We wandered through over 2000 hectares of stunning trestles, an adventure that sparked my children's curiosity about marine life and the local economy. The hotel’s location, quietly situated near Carnac and the Quiberon peninsula, made it convenient to explore cultural and leisure activities. We indulged in water sports at local spots, enriching our experience with Mediterranean traditions. While L'Hippocampe does not offer elaborate luxuries like minibars or air conditioning, it more than compensates with comfortable beds and a family's relaxed vibe. This family-owned resort truly fosters a sense of belonging, making it an ideal choice for other families eager to embrace both comfort and local culture.
