Villa La Tosca:
Located on the shores of Arcachon Bay, Villa La Tosca is a historic villa built in 1903, set within landscaped gardens with direct access to the water.
The property combines Arcachon-style architecture with Italian-influenced interiors, creating a setting that feels residential rather than hotel-led. Its position on the bay offers uninterrupted views and a quieter atmosphere compared to more central Riviera locations.
As a result, the venue suits destination weddings in France where privacy and a more relaxed coastal setting are key.
Accommodation
The villa includes 8 bedrooms and accommodates up to around 15 guests on site.
This makes it particularly suited to smaller core groups, with additional guests staying nearby within the Arcachon Bay area.
The venue operates as a private villa, meaning weddings typically take place on an exclusive-use basis.
