Christmas, that magical time when light and conviviality fill every alleyway, takes on a special flavor on the Île de Ré. Beneath the twinkling garlands and the white facades of the villages, the atmosphere is both festive and soothing.
Book your hotel on the Île de Ré, explore the Christmas markets that bring it to life every winter, and let yourself be swept away by the sweetness of life on the Île de Ré.
Between local crafts and seasonal flavors, the Christmas markets on the Île de Ré invite you to stroll to the rhythm of lights and smiles.
In each village, the wooden chalets are full of original creations: jewelry, toys, decorations, and local treats to give as gifts—or to treat yourself.
Let yourself be guided by the scent of hot chocolate and spiced wine, by the music echoing through the squares, and experience this unique atmosphere where every moment exudes the magic of the holidays.
Numerous activities for young and old are planned to celebrate Christmas as it should be.
You might even be lucky enough to run into Santa Claus around a corner...
Children can enjoy creative workshops or lace up their skates on the temporary ice rinks set up in several of the towns on the Ile de Ré.
Enjoy the street performances and the illuminated parades that brighten up winter evenings with your family, to the sound of traditional Christmas carol concerts.
Each village on the Ile de Ré experiences Christmas in its own way. Don't miss:
The Hôtel Plaisir**** welcomes you to Bois-Plage-en-Ré for the Christmas holidays. Book our 2-bedroom apartment (sleeps 5) or our 3-bedroom villa, which can accommodate 7 people.
