Home Select, a prestige buyer’s agent, describes each Biarritz and corniche address for what it is: a precise purchase product, with its buildings, its buyers and its traps. From the Impératrice district to the villages of Bidart and Guéthary, the guide tells you where your budget belongs according to the project.
A first confidential conversation, with no commitment

01Districts
The light, the cliff, the pinewood
Biarritz reads in three landscapes. The heart of prestige, Impératrice, Saint-Charles and Les Halles: light, shops on foot, apartments in former mansions. To the south, the Côte des Basques and Beaurivage, where villas cling to the cliff above the beach where surfing arrived in Europe at the end of the 1950s.
The pinewood finally: Le Braou and Aguiléra around golf and tennis, then the market’s natural extension, Anglet and Chiberta between golf and ocean, Bidart and Guéthary, the corniche villages with their confidential market.

The districts, one by one
01Impératrice, Saint-Charles and Les Hallesthe heart of Biarritz prestige
The golden triangle around the avenue de l’Impératrice and the Saint-Charles square: prestige villas and apartments, the Hôtel du Palais and its imperial beach, the Halles on foot. The historic heart of Biarritz prestige, where addresses are handed down more than sold.
Basque Country -Biarritz -The Grande Plage and the Hôtel du Palais
02Côte des Basques and Beaurivageocean views, surf spirit and clinging villas
The cliff above the Côte des Basques beach: clinging villas with open ocean views, the town’s surf spirit, the casino and the Rocher de la Vierge. The first line is extremely rare and contests every property that comes out.
03Le Braou and Aguilérafamily villas around the golf and the tennis clubs
The residential heights around the golf du Phare and the Aguiléra complex: 1930s and contemporary family villas, tree-lined gardens, calm ten minutes from the beaches. The deep family market of Biarritz, in strong demand from Parisians.
04Anglet and Chibertavillas in the pine forest, between golf and ocean
The northern continuation of the town: Anglet and its beaches, the Chiberta domain between golf, pine forest and ocean. Villas in the greenery with the ocean on foot, a younger and more family market than central Biarritz.
05Bidart and Guétharythe corniche villages, a confidential market
The Basque corniche southwards: Bidart and its ocean-view villas, Guéthary the jewel village and its character houses. A confidential and highly sought market, where fine addresses circulate between insiders, often without a listing.
Which property for your project?
Ocean view
Côte des Basques and Beaurivage: a flat with a terrace and an Atlantic view, closest to the surf beaches. The most sought-after and the narrowest segment.
Town centre
Impératrice, Saint-Charles and the market halls: a characterful flat, walking distance from the shops, the restaurants and the Grande Plage. For a regularly used year-round base.
Family home
Le Braou and Aguiléra, Anglet and Chiberta, Bidart and Guéthary: a Basque villa with a garden, quiet, close to schools and golf courses. The choice of families who settle.

Which address for which project?
The question is never which is the finest Biarritz address, but which matches the actual use: an Impératrice apartment lives on foot in every season, a coast villa demands the upkeep the cliff imposes, a pinewood house offers space and calm.
01For town on foot
Impératrice, Saint-Charles, Les Halles: light, shops, the market summit.
02For the ocean view
Côte des Basques, Beaurivage: the iconic Biarritz address, cliff and spray included.
03For space
Le Braou, Aguiléra, Anglet, Chiberta: family villas, pinewoods, golf, the market’s extension.

The traps the file reveals
On the coast: salt-spray exposure, upkeep of façades and terraces, seafront co-ownership charges. In the heart: the old fabric of mansions, façades, parking. In the pinewood: maritime pines to manage, access, garden upkeep. The dreamt-of address and the purchasable address are not always the same: that is where Home Select’s work starts.

On the ground
Why a buyer’s agent in Biarritz?
The best addresses never list
On this market, a share of the sought-after properties sells before publication, between families and through notaires and local networks. Home Select receives more than 100 off-market properties every day from its network of 15,000 partners.
You only view the essential
Every lead is verified and priced for you before you travel, on file then on a video viewing: you view only the shortlisted properties, your decisive viewings grouped into a single trip. Home Select then defends your offer, with a complete file and the actual sales of the area in hand.
The building audited before you commit
Surveys, co-ownership rules, easements, local building specifics: every document is checked before you commit.
One method, two ways in
Both are billed only if the property is found and the purchase completed.
Exclusive
Exclusive search mandate
2.5%of the net purchase price, minimum €10,000 incl. VAT+ 10% of the negotiated reduction
The full service, for every budget: brief, sourcing, off-market, pre-visits, negotiation and follow-through to the notary signing.
Which is the most sought-after district of Biarritz?
The Impératrice and Saint-Charles district, around Les Halles: light, shops on foot and former mansions, the heart of Biarritz prestige. The Côte des Basques is its iconic address, ocean view and surf spirit. Both trade fast, often off-listing: a finder’s watch makes the difference.
Should I buy in Biarritz or Anglet?
Two neighbouring products: Biarritz sells light, shops and the old mansion; Anglet sells pinewood, space and golf, about a quarter cheaper in the sector data. Usage decides: town on foot against the villa in the trees.
Are Bidart and Guéthary worth it?
Yes, for whoever wants the Basque corniche: preserved villages, a confidential market, intermediate levels between Anglet and Biarritz in the sector data. It is a network market, where fine properties often trade off-listing.
What are your fees in Biarritz?
Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Biarritz, charges 2.5% of the net purchase price (minimum €10,000 incl. VAT) on the Exclusive offer, or 1.5% on the Confidential offer for projects of €2m and above, plus 10% of the negotiated reduction in both cases. Home Select is paid on success only, and also on what you save: nothing is due until you have bought.
