Close to scuba diving, windsurfing, and more, this smoke-free villa brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 11-minute drive to Caves Byrrh or the 22-minute drive to Lac de Caramany (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

Spend a day at the nearby beach, relax by the private pool, or sip a drink in the garden of this 1615-sq-ft villa, which also features a deck or patio. When you come inside, connect to the WiFi or get cozy in front of the cable/satellite TV (video library available). There's also a DVD player and a music library for your enjoyment.

This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental features a dining area and a BBQ grill. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and an ice maker. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
