What's more disappointing than having seen a price and see this price increasing with additional fees when you wish to book your holiday? We do not apply appealing prices and rather prefer displaying the real cost. With My home in, there is no additional or hidden fee upon booking.
Local offers
Properties listed are exclusively located in Arcachon. We do not display properties situated 100 km away from the location you choose for your holiday.
The island of Re and La Rochelle are two wonderful destinations, simply separated by a 2.9 kilometers bridge. However the type of holiday you would spend in the Ile de Re has nothing to compare with the type of holiday you would spend in La Rochelle. This situation applies to Nice and Cannes with only the Angels's bay between those two cities. The same for Sainte-Maxime and Saint-Tropez, one village facing the other with few nautical miles and the magical Saint-Tropez's Gulf between the two.
The area covered by My Home In Arcachon is voluntarily limited in order to provide you with property offers matching your location expectations.

Responsible traveler
Booking with My home in, you sustain and contribute to the success of a local holiday rental platform initiative.
Nowadays, the digital economy and moreover the holiday rental market is in the hands of few companies, setting up the rules and applying the price conditions they wish.
Why using a platform based abroad to book in France? We think we should all have common sense in what we do, including holiday organisation.
At My home in, we aim to contribute to the development of the local economy using locals only. Because we love our My home in destinations, we consider it is also our responsibility to protect them, helping local initiatives such as cleaning the beaches, preserving the dunes...
This cannot be done without your support.
