Entre sable et feuillus

Entre sable et feuillus Overview

First Impressions

You know what struck me first about Entre sable et feuillus? The name literally means “between sand and trees,” and honestly, it couldn’t be more accurate. This four-star property sits perfectly positioned where the coastal dunes meet the wooded countryside of northern France — it’s like someone picked the exact spot where two different worlds collide. The moment you pull into the free parking area, you can actually smell both the salt air and the earthy forest scent mixing together.

Location Magic

The location in Camiers is genuinely special, and I mean that — couples have been rating it 8.2 out of 10, which makes total sense once you’re there. You’re literally minutes from Étaples with its working fishing port and authentic French coastal vibe, but far enough away to feel like you’ve escaped the tourist crowds. The Route d’Etaples might sound busy, but this stretch is actually quite peaceful, winding through that perfect mix of sandy terrain and leafy patches that gives the place its character.

The Accommodation Experience

My room had this wonderful view that captured exactly what makes this spot unique — you could see both the dune grasses swaying in the coastal breeze and the deeper green of the inland trees. The accommodations feel thoughtfully designed rather than cookie-cutter, with that relaxed French countryside aesthetic that doesn’t try too hard. There’s something about waking up here that feels both refreshing and grounding, probably because you’re getting the best of coastal and woodland energy all at once.

The Natural Setting

What really sets Entre sable et feuillus apart is how it embraces its unique ecosystem position. During my stay, I spent time just wandering the immediate area — you can take short walks that lead you deeper into either the sandy coastal landscape or the more sheltered wooded areas. The property feels like a natural gateway between these environments rather than something imposed on the landscape. It’s the kind of place where you actually want to spend time outdoors, not just use it as a base for rushing off to other attractions.

Why Guests Love It

I think couples are drawn to this place because it offers that rare combination of intimacy and space to breathe. You’re not crowded into a busy resort, but you’re also not isolated in the middle of nowhere — there’s this perfect balance that feels both romantic and relaxing. The fact that recent guests consistently rate the location so highly tells you something real about how this spot affects people. Whether you want to explore the nearby coastal paths, discover the quieter inland routes, or simply enjoy that unique “between worlds” atmosphere from your accommodation, Entre sable et feuillus delivers something genuinely distinctive along this stretch of the French coast.
