About this stay
The Digue Gaston Berthe is the sea wall that carries the Calais beach west of the port, and this residence sits directly opposite the sand on it. Rooms sleep up to four and are fitted for staying put rather than passing through: a microwave, a fridge, an electric hotplate, a dining table, kitchenware, free WiFi, satellite television with French and English channels and a full en suite bathroom with a bath. Crockery and cooking equipment can be hired for an extra charge, which is the arrangement that makes a late arrival workable when nothing is open. A bar and restaurant sit a few steps away, and outside there is a sun terrace, a terrace and outdoor furniture facing the water. Pets are accepted, family rooms are listed and the property holds eighty parking places, five of them suitable for guests with reduced mobility, all free of charge. The Channel Tunnel is five minutes away by car, and couples rate this beachfront location at 9.3.

Our take
I like the Résidence du Golf for its seafront address opposite the beach and its self-catering rooms for up to four. An 8.0 rating across nearly 3,500 reviews confirms it works, and free parking with the Channel Tunnel five minutes away makes it a smart first or last night in France. Pets are accepted. Guests expecting hotel services such as a restaurant should note this is a residence first.
- ✓Hire the crockery and cooking equipment when you book, the hotplate and microwave are in the room but the kit is not.
- ✓Ask for a room facing the beach, the sand is directly opposite and the strait changes colour through the evening.
- ✓Come between May and September for swimming, the Opal Coast water stays cold and the wind decides most beach days.
Why we love it
- Rooms opposite the beach on the Digue Gaston Berthe
- A hotplate, microwave and fridge in the room
- Eighty free parking spaces, five adapted
- Satellite television with French and English channels
Why guests love itThe Résidence du Golf faces the beach on the Digue Gaston Berthe, so children can be on the sand within minutes. Rooms sleep up to four and come with a microwave, fridge and electric hotplate, handy for simple meals and early breakfasts. Satellite television offers French and English channels, useful for British families. Parking is free on site, and the town centre is 800 metres away, an easy walk with children.
