Excellent séjour au Pays Basque!
Nous avons passé deux excellentes semaines dans cette belle maison traditionnelle qui est propre et bien équipée. C'est un endroit très calme entre Sare et Zugarramurdi avec des vues panoramiques. Monsieur Garbisu est très gentil, attentionne et aimable et nous avons apprécié ses suggestions. Merci beaucoup – nous recommandons!
Tranquil stay in special French Basque region
We could not have asked for a more ideal vacation or a better host. Andoni Garbisu is an exceptionally friendly and helpful VRBO host. Of the many regions we visited during our month in France, the French Basque region is definitely our favorite... and much of that is due to the beauty and comfort of the home at Anikunborda and the graciousness of Andoni. If you enter ANIKUNBORDA as the “destination” on your cell phone’s Google Maps app, you will have no problem finding the house. My recommendation is to arrive before sunset because the roads are winding and narrow and it is much easier to navigate in the light. But once you’ve arrived, you will feel very secure in your ability to find the home again (assuming you have mobile GPS). The GPS with which many rental cars are equipped will NOT work to locate the house. The highlights of our three days in the area were our trip to Zumaia where we had an exceptional Air BnB “tour experience” with Angel Patricio in the Zumaia Geopark; our half day in Hondarribia and other half day in St-Jean-de-Luz were also favorite experiences. For a beautiful beach and shopping, visit Biarritz (great linens at Jean-Vier plus a great Oceanside promenade walk). And, of course, there is the truly exceptional cuisine of the area – particularly a restaurant we found called Ostalapia near Ahetze and the pintxos of nearby Spain (Anikunborda is literally a few minutes drive to the Spanish border). San Sebastián, about 45 minutes away, is famous for its inventive pintxos cuisine, but we also had wonderful pintxos in smaller towns like Zumaia, Hondarribia and St-Jean-de-Luz—and they were much more affordable. Overall, we had a wonderful, relaxing, and highly interesting vacation in the very special Basque region. Thank you, Andoni!
Wunderschönes Haus in ruhiger Umgebung
Wunderschönes mit sehr viel Liebe zum Detail gebautes Haus. Sehr viel Platz im Haus. Also auch für 4 Erwachsene und 2 Kinder völlig ausreichend. 20 Minuten zum Atlantik. Wer die Ruhe sucht ist hier richtig. Landschaft lädt zu leichten Wanderungen und MTB ein. Ausflüge nach Pamplona und San Sebastian (ca 1 Std.)
A little slice of heaven
We stayed in Anikunborda over Christmas vacation and enjoyed both the house and the scenery immensely. The owner was extremely nice and introduced us to Basque pastry. The house is beautiful, clean, and peaceful, with all the necessities available. It is as spectacular as it appears in the photos. Our children enjoyed the yard and we enjoyed that they were both safe and busy. We hiked La Rhune, saw the Lezeak caves, went into St. Pee Sur Nivelle to eat the delicious pastries, star gazed, and just spent time relaxing. Our entire family enjoyed the stay and we plan to go back again.
Thank you for your nice words. I am glad because you enjoy the holidays here and we will be delighted to receive you again.
Thank you for all.
Regards,
Anikunborda
Excellent séjour
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour de 2 semaines dans cette superbe maison.
Andoni est un propriétaire très attentionné, agréable et disponible.
Le jardin est très joli et les enfants y ont beaucoup joué (la balançoire a fait des heureux !!)
C'est un endroit très calme et bénéficiant d'un superbe panorama.
Nous recommandons très vivement cette belle adresse.
