Biarritz sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Abritel. Hotels on the Basque coast mix leisure, surf, festival, wellness and some corporate and event demand, including thalassotherapy guests in the shoulder months. We protect summer weeks and the Fêtes de Bayonne from early group discounts, set length-of-stay rules on peak dates and use surf and spa packages for September and October. Comp sets should separate luxury seafront hotels from boutique and surf-focused properties.
Booking.com is the main hotel channel on the Basque coast. Airbnb and Abritel, Vrbo's French brand, matter most for apartments and villas booked by French families, while Vrbo reaches international families. We keep parity tight and spell out sea views, parking and beach distance, which drive comparison here.
