A FAMILY OF TRAVELERS

More than 30 countries
explored together

For over fifteen years, we have been traveling the world with our children — different cultures, striking landscapes, precious memories.

Traveling has always been our way to slow down and reconnect with what truly matters.

Above all, we learned what makes a place unforgettable: feeling genuinely welcomed, simplicity, the soul of a place.

— Célia & François

The day everything
stopped

Throughout our travels, we kept exploring…
And then one day, almost without looking for it, we discovered a paradise beach just steps from home.

A special light.

Calm and clear water.

A place still untouched.

It was here that we felt what we had been searching for everywhere else — a simple, beautiful, peaceful place. A place we want to return to.

OUR PROJECT

Why Marea
was born

Marea was born from this realization — the desire to share this little paradise with other travelers.

We didn't envision Marea as just a rental, but as a place to live, designed to welcome families, friends, and lovers of the Basin.

Every space has been designed as if we were hosting people we care about: with attention, simplicity, and care for detail.

Welcoming as
we love to travel

WHAT MATTERS TO US

As travelers, we know what makes the difference:

  • Arriving in a place where you feel expected
  • Finding your way easily from the first evening
  • Having the right advice at the right time
  • Feeling free, without unnecessary constraints

A PLACE TO SLOW DOWN

At Marea, you come to:

  • Unpack your bags and breathe
  • Walk barefoot to the beach
  • Enjoy the Basin in every season
  • Live at the rhythm of the tides
  • Savor simple moments

Here, we don't rush. We take our time.

Why the name
Marea

Marea evokes the tide — the natural movement of the Basin, the permanent connection between land and ocean.

An invitation to live at the rhythm of nature, to let the days flow gently.

A soft, luminous name
that tells the story of this place better than any words.

We look forward
to welcoming you

If you've made it this far, perhaps you're looking for more than just accommodation — a place where you truly feel at home.

We would be delighted to welcome you to Marea and share with you this corner of the Basin that we love so much.

Marea is not a destination.
It's a pause.
