About Camping Eden Villages L'Océan & Spa

If you are looking for a French campsite where the beach, swimming pool, cycling and relaxation all come together, Camping Eden Villages L'Océan & Spa is a particularly attractive choice. Set on a spacious 9-hectare estate between Ars-en-Ré and La Couarde-sur-Mer, it places you just 50 metres from a sandy beach and directly beside the island’s cycle network. What makes it especially appealing for families? The heated 420m² aquatic complex has two pools and a paddling pool, while children can enjoy the playground, kids’ activities, sports, mini-golf and seasonal entertainment. There is also a restaurant, snack bar, grocery shop, bakery, bike hire, fitness facilities and a superb 300m² spa with sauna, hammam, jacuzzi and treatments. For parents, the spa and peaceful island surroundings add a welcome touch of relaxation; for children aged roughly 4–12, there is plenty to keep them active without needing to leave the resort. Teenagers also benefit from seasonal activities, while older children will love the freedom of exploring the island by bicycle. And the location is the real bonus. Fancy a morning on the beach, lunch in La Couarde, an afternoon cycling through the salt marshes and an evening by the pool? It is all wonderfully easy here. The atmosphere is polished yet relaxed, making this an excellent base for discovering Île de Ré at your own pace.

Surroundings

Camping Eden Villages L'Océan & Spa lies in the heart of Île de Ré, surrounded by sandy Atlantic beaches, coastal dunes, salt marshes, fishing ponds and fragrant island vegetation. Within 15 kilometres, the landscape changes from broad beaches and tidal shoreline to salt-producing marshes, vineyards, pine groves and tranquil countryside. The island’s famous network of cycle paths crosses this varied scenery, linking picturesque villages, harbours and nature reserves. It is an exceptionally attractive setting for families who enjoy beaches, cycling, wildlife and gentle outdoor adventures.

“My first recommendation is simple: bring or hire bicycles. Camping Eden Villages L'Océan & Spa is exceptionally well positioned for exploring Île de Ré without constantly getting back into the car. The cycle paths start conveniently from the campsite, and this is one of those destinations where cycling is genuinely part of the holiday experience rather than simply another activity. For families, we would alternate beach mornings with afternoons around the heated pool. The beach is remarkably close, while the aquatic area provides an easy option when the Atlantic breeze picks up. The paddling pool is particularly useful for younger children. Do make time for the spa, especially if you are travelling with children and want a little quiet time for yourselves. The 300m² wellness area gives the resort a more sophisticated feel than many traditional family campsites. The onsite shop is useful for everyday essentials and fresh bread, but we recommend visiting the local markets and village shops as well. Cycling into La Couarde or further towards Ars-en-Ré is a wonderful way to experience the island’s salt marshes, whitewashed houses and little harbours. For sightseeing, plan Saint-Martin-de-Ré and the Phare des Baleines on separate days. And if the children enjoy boats, reserve a Fort Boyard excursion early during the summer season. Finally, remember that pool swimwear rules are strict for reasons of hygiene and safety: conventional fitted swimwear is required rather than loose swimming shorts.”
