About this property

HOUSE 4 * SEA VIEW TERRACE SEASIDE NORMANDY CALVADOS BEACH OMAHA BEACH

NEW FOR 2018
"UNE TERRASSE SUR LA MER" welcomes you in Port-en-Bessin ", a very active fishing port in Calvados nicknamed" Norman Saint-Tropez "by Françoise Sagan.
This authentic fisherman's house (18th century) is located in the first lane of the old port.
It exceptionally dominates the outer harbor, the sea and the open sea to offer you a multitude of landscapes changing with the tides. From its terrace where the sea is close to the sky, you can observe the gulls, paint the waves, accompany the trawlers or simply have a drink and taste the products of the market. We tried to find the soul of this house without forgetting to bring it all the necessary comfort for a stay that we wish you unforgettable.
This "Portaise" has three levels:
Upstairs: "bedroom with view" (master bedroom 160 bed with private bathroom)
A bright ground floor with living room (open kitchen and dining room with fireplace) + terrace. Exceptional sea views inside and out.
A basement with "cocooning" lounge (sofa, TV ...) overlooking a small sunny English courtyard, bathroom and two adjoining bedrooms: a 140 bed in one + a 160 bed in the other (divisible into 2 beds of 80 for 2 children / adolescents)

INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR ARRIVAL:
A refundable deposit in the amount of € 300 will be requested upon arrival and returned by me upon your departure if no damage is found.
The deposit can be paid in the currency of your country.
A tourist tax of 1.70 € per person over 18 years old and per night will also be required on your arrival.

The perfect place to stay

Amazing property. Beautifully furnished. Everything and more that you could ask for in a place to stay. Shops, bars and the harbour just a few minutes walk away. Can’t recommend enough for such attention to detail.

Normandy tour

Perfect location for visiting all D-Day sites. Property sits in the middle of all the museums. Easy walk to local restaurants and Bakery. Frank went out of his way to make the stay enjoyable. The views are spectacular from the house. Woke up every morning to the ocean view and the fisherman coming in and out. Very comfortable.

Amazing Property

This wonderful house had beautiful views, was centrally located and had friendly helpful owners. I highly recommend this property. We were able to see all the D-Day sites we wanted, visited Mont St Michel and the city of Normandel for my husbands ancestry. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked and showers were nice.

Nice appartment with splendid harbour view

Beautiful, clean, well-eguipped appartment in an ancient and quiet part of Port-en-Bessin. Free parking at short distance. Friendly owners. Perfect communication by e-mail. Port-en-Bessin is a nice fishing vilage in the heart of D-Day Normandy (Omaha Beach, Gold Beach).

Wonderful winter stay

We spent a wonderful Christmas and NYE at Anne-Sophie and Franck-Etienne’s beautiful townhouse. The views of the water are stunning and peaceful and the fireplace was very cozy to come home to after long days of sight seeing. The townhouse itself is lovely, as are the sweet hosts who thought of everything, including plastic dishes for our toddler. We also enjoyed the farmer’s market on Sundays in addition to the fish market down the road. Overall a really great vacation and the past reviews are all spot on!

Ideal location in beautiful area

We felt like we were living in a storybook or movie setting in this charming home. Located right on the water in Normandie, it is just a few steps to numerous cafes and restaurants and shops. It was very clean and well-appointed and Franck made check-in very easy. He communicated very well and even helped arrange a taxi back to the train station for us on our departure. Definitely recommend this property.

We, a family of five including grandma and kids, stayed in early June. It was a wonderful experience! The house is equipped with everything one would need. It was amazing looking out at the sea and tracking the tides from the upstairs bedroom - with a huge window to let in the fresh sea air. Brunch on the balcony was amazing. Loved the old cobblestone streets and walking every morning to the bakery to get fresh bread and pastries. Owners were very friendly and accomodating. Lovely, relaxed little town. Highly recommend this property!

Lovely seaside home in an adorable Norman town.

The home is just so ancient and lovely and well equipped. We just loved the town, all the great brasserie, cafes, dining and shopping choices. It’s just perfectly located to see Normandy. The sleeping sitch is a little confusing per the listing. There’s a euro-king upstairs 2 bedrooms on the bottom level (that are connected), one with a euro-king and the other with 2 twins (which can be pushed together to make a euro-king). The couch is a pull-out type and would be ok for a young kid up to maybe a teen but not suitable for an adult with any mileage on you! Minor issue if you’re a flexible crew…it’s a great little spot and the owners were super sweet kept up great communication.

Exceptional!

This may be one of the best (if not the best) VRBO properties we have ever stayed in. Every (and I mean every) detail is exquisite: location, home decor, quality of bedding/linens, proximity to sites, view from every window, and the lovely and welcoming approach and communication by the owners. My family and I stayed several nights for our first trip to Normandy, and this home was the definite highlight of the trip. Staying in such a beautiful and historical space (with all the modern elements you could ever need) made this trip even more memorable. We are truly, truly grateful to the owners for their generosity and trust in opening such a beautiful home to guests from around the world. Their thoughtfulness in considering what guests may need or have a whim for is truly inspiring. You will not regret staying here, and you will want to return. We just got home and already want to go back and sit on the patio to watch the fishing boats go in and out with the tide. Thank you to the hosts again for an incredible experience! You are the best of what VRBO offers its customers when it comes to hosting homes and quality of service and experience. Truly exceptional!

The best home rental ever

The home is absolutely stunning! Pictures do not do it justice, it is more amazing and like a beautiful fairy tale overlooking the ocean. The home is on a small and quiet street lined with other whimsical homes. The place is well equipped we cooked a Thanksgiving dinner there. There is a delicious Boulangerie nearby and a fisherman market. We bought fresh seafood, which is unparalleled. The location is next to Omaha beach and close to the American cemetery. It was a quick 20 minute drive tow Bayeux, and 90 minute drive to Mont st Michel and honfleur. Location is very central and cannot be beat. This house checked all the boxes and has two full bathrooms with toilets along with washer. My family lived this place so much that we want to return in the near future. Frank is a gracious host, took the time to show us the entire house and how to work appliances. This home will give you and your family a lifetime of happy memories.

Bucket List Trip - Normandy

This was a trip we have wanted to take for a very long time and this home was the perfect stay for the four of us (2 couples). The home is well taken care of, super clean, and shown lots of love. The furnishings are perfect and comfortable for this picturesque home on the channel. You can sit and literally watch the tide roll out or you can walk on the sandy bottom with oysters and clams or watch the tide roll in. The kitchen is small but extremely useful and stocked with what you need to cook and enjoy a meal. The beds are comfy and you love snuggling in at night. You are steps from excellent restaurants and simple shopping and the fishing docks. It's magnificent to watch the fishing boats coming in at right outside your window/terrace. Take a stroll down to the docks and see all the lights, color and catch. It's fascinating. The thing that may not matter to some but we were totally impressed with was the window treatments. The upstairs bedroom totally backs out and you do know if it's day or night. The owner Franck-Etienne Vouilloux was wonderful and so very kind and helpful. We will definitely stay here again if back in Normandy. It was the prefect choice.

The best rental!

I made a reservation based on previous reviews that I had read and the house did not disappoint! Our only regret was that we were not there for a longer amount of time. Every single detail was thought of, and the house was incredibly clean and comfortable. We absolutely would come back and stay here again, thank you for sharing this home with us for making our time in Normandy so very special!
