A charming, very special gem in the Basque mountains, far from the hustle and bustle. Andoni, the friendly, unassuming host, has created something extraordinary. He speaks Basque, Spanish, French, andâgood for usâsign language. If this had once been a sheep barn, I would have loved to be a sheep there. Everything you need is there, fully equipped, and leaves nothing to be desired. Highly recommended *****
This house is incredible. I've never stayed in a place as beautifully crafted and in such a beautiful rural setting. We cooked 4 nights as well and found the kitchen and outdoor grill to be well stocked. Our group was a family of 4 - kids were 18 and 14 years old. During our 5 nights stay we visited the nearby French Basque towns (including Espelette), we day-tripped to San Sebastian, went to Bayonne, Saint Jean de Luz, and Hendaye. Really fun week!
We loved this house and appreciated the work that had gone into building and furnishing it. Lots of wood in the structure and fittings and an excellent standard.
Andoni lives next door and is a very attentive host. The only problem we had, when arriving, was not following his Google map instructions on the location. Once we realised what to do, we went straight to the house!
The house is very well equipped, comfortable and has lovely surrounding garden and views. Plenty of outdoor seating and tables for eating. It would be particularly good for children as there are swings and a slide to play on.
This area is has beautiful scenery and very pretty towns and villages and we were perfectly located to explore.

Tranquil stay in special French Basque region
We could not have asked for a more ideal vacation or a better host. Andoni Garbisu is an exceptionally friendly and helpful VRBO host. Of the many regions we visited during our month in France, the French Basque region is definitely our favorite... and much of that is due to the beauty and comfort of the home at Anikunborda and the graciousness of Andoni. If you enter ANIKUNBORDA as the âdestinationâ on your cell phoneâs Google Maps app, you will have no problem finding the house. My recommendation is to arrive before sunset because the roads are winding and narrow and it is much easier to navigate in the light. But once youâve arrived, you will feel very secure in your ability to find the home again (assuming you have mobile GPS). The GPS with which many rental cars are equipped will NOT work to locate the house. The highlights of our three days in the area were our trip to Zumaia where we had an exceptional Air BnB âtour experienceâ with Angel Patricio in the Zumaia Geopark; our half day in Hondarribia and other half day in St-Jean-de-Luz were also favorite experiences. For a beautiful beach and shopping, visit Biarritz (great linens at Jean-Vier plus a great Oceanside promenade walk). And, of course, there is the truly exceptional cuisine of the area â particularly a restaurant we found called Ostalapia near Ahetze and the pintxos of nearby Spain (Anikunborda is literally a few minutes drive to the Spanish border). San SebastiĂĄn, about 45 minutes away, is famous for its inventive pintxos cuisine, but we also had wonderful pintxos in smaller towns like Zumaia, Hondarribia and St-Jean-de-Luzâand they were much more affordable. Overall, we had a wonderful, relaxing, and highly interesting vacation in the very special Basque region. Thank you, Andoni!
Liebevoll ausgestattetes Natursteinhaus mit Kamin und Steinböden, echten HolztĂŒren und Holzböden, sauber. BettbezĂŒge und HandtĂŒcher gegen Aufpreis. KĂŒche gut ausgestattet. Ruhige schöne Gegend. Auto notwendig. Antoni ist sehr nett, spricht aber nur spanisch und etwas französisch.
Wir hatten zwei traumhafte Wochen in dem groĂzĂŒgigen Ferienhaus. Besonders positiv ist uns die Möglichkeit zum DrauĂenkochen aufgefallen, dort gibt es eine Art Backblechpfanne, die gasbetrieben ist und auf der man herrlich alles mögliche kurzerhand zusammenbrutzeln kann. Von diesem Grillplatz hat man einen wunderbaren Ausblick auf die baskischen HĂŒgel rundherum. Der Garten ist mit BĂ€umen und Blumen liebevoll gestaltet. Die Ausstattung des Ferienhauses ist praktisch und enthĂ€lt alles, was man benötigt; viele Fenster sind mit Fliegengittern ausgestattet. Der Vermieter, der nebenan wohnt, ist ein freundlicher Mann, der niemals aufdringlich gewesen ist; wir konnten bei ihm auch BettwĂ€sche und HandtĂŒcher mieten. Im vorderen Schlafzimmer ist ein Fenster mit Fliegengitter, dafĂŒr ist das Bett etwas kĂŒrzer als gewohnt. Wir haben uns in dem sehr sauberen und ordentlichen Haus sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt und sind nach unserem Urlaub einmal runderneuert und glĂŒcklich zurĂŒckgekehrt.
Unsere Woche im Mai war leider nur gelegentlich von Sonnenschein verschönert. Trotzdem hat uns der Aufenthalt gut gefallen, denn das Haus ist auch bei schlechterem Wetter schön. Wir haben alles vorgefunden, das wir brauchten. Alles war Àsthetisch und in gutem Zustand. Die Umgegend fanden wir ebenfalls sehr schön. Nicht nur Bayonne sondern auch Sare und weitere kleine StÀdte. Sehr empfehlenswert!
