CasaGiga 2173 (Saint-Clément-des-Baleines)

Set in the heart of Saint-Clément-des-Baleines on the beautiful Île de Ré in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, this characterful stone cottage with its iconic blue shutters offers an authentic Atlantic retreat for large groups. Sleeping up to 18 guests across eight thoughtfully decorated bedrooms, the property strikes the perfect balance between rustic island charm and modern comfort. The spacious living room with WiFi and a large family dining area are made for gathering everyone together, while the fully equipped kitchen — dishwasher included — takes the effort out of cooking for a crowd. A laundry room with a washing machine is also available, making longer stays effortlessly practical. Outside, the garden is a genuine haven: shaded corners for lazy afternoons and a barbecue ready for long summer evenings under the stars. The location is hard to beat — the legendary Baleines lighthouse, wild sandy beaches, and some of France's finest cycling routes are all close by. Come evening, the Atlantic sunsets are nothing short of breathtaking. Whether you're planning a family reunion, a celebration with friends, or simply a chance to slow down and breathe in island life, this cottage has the space, the setting, and the warmth to make every stay truly memorable.
