What You Get

Four Simple Commitments

01

Direct route to the ocean

From Bordeaux, take the bypass to Exit 8, marked “Lacanau,” then follow the D6 toward Lacanau-Océan. Your fare is confirmed before departure, even when this busy summer route is congested.

02

Luggage for a beach vacation

The Eco Van can accommodate up to 7 passengers and 7 pieces of luggage, including a folded stroller, cooler, or beach bags—provided these are specified in the quote. Baby seats and booster seats are available as an option (+€15).

03

Drop-off at the correct address

The pickup location is 24 rue du Repos, 33680 Lacanau-Océan. The return pickup can be arranged at the same location, in front of the entrance, taking care not to confuse the campground with Lacanau-Ville.

04

Arrival coordinated with reception

The resort has announced that it will be open from April 3 to 1st November 2026. During peak season, guests typically check in on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays; therefore, the pickup time is coordinated with the time slot provided by the front desk.

chauffeur, train, car, group

Bordeaux → Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan: chauffeured transfer, train, car, or tour?

Short answer: Lacanau-Océan does not have a train station. Public transportation therefore involves taking a regional bus, followed by a walk to Rue du Repos, whereas the chauffeured transfer drops passengers off right in front of the campground. A rental car is useful for exploring the surrounding area, but it’s less necessary for those who plan to spend most of their time at the beach—a ten-minute walk away—or in the town center—a fifteen-minute walk away—and who will be getting around by bike. The chauffeured transfer reaches the reception area in 59 minutes starting at 116 €. The chauffeured rate is set before departure; the taxi fares listed below are approximate estimates based on the meter, the time of day, and traffic conditions on the way to the coast.

Procedure

How is your transfer to Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan going?

After picking up passengers in Bordeaux, the route heads to the beltway and takes Exit 8, “Lacanau,” then follows the D6 through the forest to Lacanau-Océan. The final destination is the entrance at 24 Rue du Repos: luggage is unloaded there before proceeding to the front desk. For late arrivals, the campground asks to be notified in advance; a staff member will meet guests at the entrance, and vehicle access is permitted until 11:00 p.m. A driver can also be booked for the return trip or an excursion, starting at 272 € The half-day in Eco.

01

Departure from Bordeaux

The hotel, the Saint-Jean train station, or the Bordeaux-Mérignac terminal will serve as the meeting point. The number of suitcases and beach gear specified in the quote will determine the type of vehicle.

02

Exit 8 toward Lacanau

The driver exits the beltway at the exit marked "Lacanau," then follows the D6 westward. On summer Saturdays, the departure time takes into account the expected traffic on this coastal route.

03

24 Rue du Repos

Check-in takes place at the entrance to the Lacanau-Océan campground, before check-in procedures. In the event of a late arrival, the guest must notify the campground in advance, as specified in the practical guidelines.

04

Beach and town center nearby

After check-in, the beach is about a 10-minute walk away via the protected bike path, and the town center is about a 15-minute walk away. The private chauffeur service will pick you up at the agreed-upon spot in front of the resort.

Since there is no train station in Lacanau-Océan, rail travelers must transfer to a bus. If you’re traveling with a stroller, several suitcases, or arriving close to the time when vehicle access is restricted, being dropped off in front of 24 Rue du Repos saves you the trouble of arranging a final leg of your trip.

Why not a shuttle or a platform?

With a direct reservation, you can provide the driver with the full address of Rue du Repos, the arrival time slot provided by the campground, and the volume of luggage to be loaded. These details are especially helpful when the flight arrives late, when the vehicle needs to arrive before 11:00 p.m., or when a van is needed for a family.

When should I make a reservation?

For a transfer to L'Océan, 24 to 48 hours' notice is sufficient outside of peak periods. It is best to plan ahead for Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays during peak season—which are the scheduled arrival days for accommodations—as well as for van requests in July and August. The outbound and return trips can be confirmed together, with a specific schedule for each leg of the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ: Private Transfer from Bordeaux to Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan

How much does a private transfer from Bordeaux to Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan cost?

The transfer from downtown Bordeaux to Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan (Lacanau-Océan) costs 116 € in Eco, 131 € in the Premium Sedan segment, 146 € in an Eco Van and 168 € in a Mercedes Van (one-way, daytime). From Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport: starting at 103 €. Fixed price announced in writing before the trip, including tolls and luggage.

Is the rate really fixed, even during peak traffic times?

Yes. The rate is confirmed in writing before departure: traffic jams on the beltway, Saturday rush hour, or detours—none of it makes a difference. That’s the fundamental difference from a metered taxi, where the fare depends on actual traffic conditions.

How long does the trip from Bordeaux to Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan take?

Approximately 59 minutes for 53 km, via the bypass and then the D6 through the Médoc pine forest to Lacanau-Océan. Your driver will allow extra time to ensure you arrive at the agreed-upon time—which is convenient when the campground has a set arrival time.

Can we bring suitcases, a stroller, and beach bags?

Yes, it's designed for that. The model range is chosen based on cargo capacity: 2 suitcases in the Eco, 3 in the Sedan, and up to 7 suitcases + a folded stroller in a van. Coolers, beach bags, and bulky items go in the trunk—just let us know the size when you request a quote so we can assign the right vehicle.

Do you drop off at the campground reception desk?

Yes. The driver will drop you off at the reception desk of Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan (24 rue du Repos, in Lacanau-Océan) and will help you unload your luggage. Be sure to specify “Lacanau-Océan” when making your reservation to ensure you’re dropped off at the right location. To pick you up at the end of your stay, he will be waiting for you at the same location on the agreed-upon day and time.

What kind of vehicle should a family choose for a camping trip?

The Eco Van (Peugeot Traveller, starting at 146 €) is the family-friendly choice for campground travel: 7 passengers and 7 suitcases, including a stroller — or about 21 € per person for 7 people on the outbound trip. Infant car seats and booster seats are optional (+15 €). The Mercedes Van (from 168 €) offers the same luggage capacity in premium finishes.

Do you accept check-ins on Saturday, the day of arrival at the campground?

Yes, Saturdays—the typical day for arriving at and departing from campgrounds—are covered just like any other day, 24 hours a day. It’s also the most popular time slot of the summer: make your reservation 5 to 7 days in advance for a van in July–August. The weekend surcharge is included in the estimate, which is provided in writing before departure.

What if our flight arrives late in the evening or at night?

The service operates 24 hours a day. At Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport, your flight is tracked in real time. A 40-minute waiting period is included after landing—in the event of a delay, the driver will adjust the time accordingly. The nighttime surcharge (7:00 p.m. – 6:00 a.m.) is included in the fixed quote, which is provided in writing before the trip.

Do you offer infant car seats or booster seats?

Yes: optional infant car seat or booster seat at +15 € per vehicle, installed prior to pickup—please specify the children's ages when making your reservation. You may also bring your own car seats: the driver will help you install them.

Without a car on site, how can you explore the area from the campground?

Two options. Combine the outbound transfer with a stop along the way: starting from 356 € in Eco class for the trip with a stop at the Cap-Ferret (transfer + stopover + 3 hours with a driver), 383 € with Arcachon, 392 € with the Dune du Pilat, or 272 € as a half-day tour. Or request a quote for an excursion from the campground during your stay—get a quote in 30 seconds through the module or via WhatsApp.

Is it better to take the train or book a chauffeur service to the campground?

Let's be honest: to get to Lacanau, taking the train isn't enough—there's no train station. The only public transportation option is a regional coach from Bordeaux Saint-Jean (~2 hours), with multiple stops: a long and tiring trip with kids, luggage, and beach gear. The door-to-door transfer runs from Bordeaux to the campground reception in 59 minutes, door-to-door, at a fixed price: for a family, this is often the only trip without a transfer.

Is pickup available from the airport or a hotel?

Yes, anywhere: a hotel, your home, Saint-Jean Station, or Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport (from 103 €, including flight tracking and 40 minutes of free waiting time after landing — see our Airport Transfer Page). Perfect for getting directly to the campground upon your flight's arrival, without needing a shuttle or rental car.

How far in advance should I book a driver?

24 to 48 hours is enough for a standard transfer—quote confirmed within 30 minutes. Plan ahead for summer Saturdays, the typical arrival day at campsites: for a van in July and August, plan for 5 to 7 days. The reservation module is available 24 hours a day.

What payment methods do you accept?

Two options: online payment via a secure link (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay, Google Pay) or payment on board, in cash or by card. No advance payment required for tours departing from Bordeaux Métropole. Free cancellation up to 12:00 p.m. before departure. Invoices available by email upon request, in French or English.

Is a chauffeur service cheaper than a taxi from Bordeaux to Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan?

The quote for the private chauffeur service is set before departure. The taxi fares in the table are approximate estimates; the actual price varies depending on the meter, the time of day, and traffic conditions on the way to Lacanau-Océan. A Taxi from Bordeaux to Camping & Spa Airotel L'Océan charges by the meter (roughly: ~€2/km during the day, ~€3/km at night and on weekends, plus the base fare), whereas our private chauffeur service applies a fare guaranteed in writing from 116 € — a price you know in advance, with no surprises on the meter. We are not a taxi; we provide a pre-booked chauffeur service: the same dedicated vehicle, a driver who loads and unloads your luggage, and a fixed quote before departure.
