Stays in Cap d'Agde

I would pick Hotel Tennis International for families who want a peaceful setting and sport at Cap d'Agde. It stands among pine trees at the foot of Mont Saint-Loup. Guests have free access to the tennis courts and a 25-metre swimming pool, and rooms have modern amenities and free WiFi. The beach is a short walk away, so a day can mix a swim in the pool with the sea.

Hôtel La Grande Conque stands on the seafront at Cap d'Agde, and its rooms look straight out over the Mediterranean. That view does a lot of the work with children, who can watch the sea from the room. Rooms have air conditioning, a minibar, a safe, a TV and free WiFi, and private secure parking takes care of the car. Guests rate it 9.2 out of 10 across 304 reviews, an excellent score for a four-star hotel.

La Bergerie du Cap is a former 18th-century sheep barn, and its individually decorated rooms and calm pool area suit couples more than lively families. Older children will enjoy the pool, and parents the hot tub and the lounge bar in the evening. Private parking makes arrival by car simple, and pets are welcome, so the family dog can come too. It sits near the international naturist centre, which some families will want to know before booking.

Set on the edge of the 27-hole Cap d'Agde Golf Club, the Palmyra Golf is a Mediterranean-style hotel that suits families with a golfer among them. Two pools, one covered and heated and one outdoors, plus a solarium, keep children busy whatever the season. The wellness and fitness centre is there for adults, rooms are air-conditioned and some have a private terrace. Parking is free and pets are accepted. Nearly 280 reviews average a strong 9.1.

I would recommend Hôtel Bellevue to families who want to be on the seafront at Cap d'Agde. The rooms have terraces and modern amenities, with panoramic sea views.

Cap d'Agde Golf Club and Aqualand are a short walk away, which is a bonus with children.

I would recommend the Brit Hôtel Confort Hélios Agde to families who want a pool and a garden near the beach. It has an outdoor heated swimming pool and a large Mediterranean garden. Rooms are air-conditioned with free WiFi, and a snack bar and a fitness centre are on site. The hotel is near the beach and Cap d'Agde Golf Club, so it also works for a family with a golfer in it.

I would not recommend Oz'Inn Hôtel & Spa for a family with children, because it is an adults-only hotel in the Naturist Village of Cap d'Agde. I would suggest it to couples who know what that setting means. It is 300 metres from the beach, with a hammam, a large hot tub and a furnished rooftop terrace with a solarium. Rooms and suites are air-conditioned, with balconies, and there are two bars.

Le Jardin d'Eden by AGN is reserved for adult couples and opens directly onto the naturist beach of Agde, so it is not a place for families with children; parents visiting Cap d'Agde should choose another hotel.

A 7.7 score from 122 reviews is fair rather than outstanding.
