Our favorite Airbnbs in Porquerolles
The best Airbnbs in Porquerolles are located in the heart of the village, right in the center of the island on the north coast. Around the Place d'Armes, a charming little house with a garden awaits you, just a few steps from restaurants and shops.
Facing the harbor, each bright apartment features a terrace with a sea view overlooking the boats. Some quiet, waterfront residences are close to the beaches: it takes just a 10-minute walk to reach Argent Beach. For a unique experience in Porquerolles, some travelers even sleep aboard a boat moored in the harbor.
On this island in the Var department, in the heart of the national park, there are no waterfront villas lining the coast. Accommodations are scarce, so be sure to read reviews and book your vacation rental early. If everything is fully booked, the Giens Peninsula, near Hyères, is a great alternative for your stay on the French Riviera.

Your questions about Airbnb listings in Porquerolles
We’ve received several questions from you about rentals on the island. Here are our answers and tips to help you choose the right Airbnb.
What are the best Airbnb rentals in Porquerolles?
The best Airbnb rentals are in the village, close to the harbor. Our selection features three addresses. The first Airbnb listing is an apartment in the heart of Porquerolles, a duplex facing the harbor. It offers two bedrooms and air conditioning in every room.
The house at Pré des Palmiers is the waterfront option, right on the water's edge. The small duplex in the village center will appeal to couples. For a day at sea, a superb catamaran takes you to the coves from the Giens Peninsula. These trips leave from the port du Niel, with swimming and snorkeling stops.
Where to stay on the island of Porquerolles?
Where to stay in Porquerolles? In the village, without a doubt. It is home to almost all the accommodations, along with the restaurants, shops, and bike rentals. Your vacation rental stays close to the beaches, which you reach on foot or by bike.
For an apartment with a panoramic view, aim for the upper floors facing the harbor. Our duplex looks out over the sea, the harbor, and the main street. Looking for a rental that sleeps 5? Check the number of beds carefully: most places host four guests. The house at Pré des Palmiers adds a sea-view terrace on the harbor side.
Which Airbnb rentals are best for families?
Family-friendly vacation rentals are rare on the island. The 35 m² (377 sq ft) duplex suits a small family. The house at Pré des Palmiers sleeps four in two bedrooms, with a fully equipped kitchen.
For a larger family, you will need a bigger Airbnb listing. One option is an 80 m² (861 sq ft) apartment for 6 people, in the heart of the village, tastefully renovated. A house overlooking the maquis remains an exception, since the island is protected. Look for the Guest favorite badge to spot the top-rated places.
How to choose an Airbnb in Porquerolles?
The best Airbnb rentals combine three assets: the view, the quiet, and an ideal location. In the village, you do everything on foot. But summer brings some noise.
Read the reviews carefully before you book. They tell you about noise, cleanliness, and the welcome. A high-comfort apartment must have air conditioning: summers are hot on the island. Every Airbnb listing in our selection does, for a pleasant stay.
Which Airbnb rentals have a sea view?
The places facing the harbor offer the best panoramic sea views. Our renovated duplex overlooks the sea, the harbor, and the main street. The house at Pré des Palmiers has two terraces, including a sea-view terrace on the harbor side.
Some residences sit a little apart from the village. One seafront Airbnb listing facing the harbor is a 10-minute walk from both the village and the plage d'Argent. This oceanfront apartment also lists beach access among its amenities. In the evening, a superb catamaran at anchor often completes the picture.
Are there pet-friendly Airbnb rentals?
Pet-friendly vacation rentals do exist, but check each listing. An apartment in the heart of Porquerolles does not always accept dogs. Use the pets filter when you search for an Airbnb listing.
If you travel with pets, learn the national park rules too. Dogs must stay on a leash on paths and trails. They are banned from the beaches. A house overlooking the maquis or with a yard is therefore ideal, and Guest favorite listings usually spell out these conditions.
What are the best waterfront Airbnb rentals?
Among the waterfront vacation rentals, the house at Pré des Palmiers stands out. It sits right on the water, facing the harbor. Yet you cannot hear the bustle of the village from it.
The other top seafront Airbnb rentals book up fast. If everything is full, search for an Airbnb listing on the Giens Peninsula. The plage de la Bergerie is the longest beach in Hyères, with a very gentle slope for young children. An oceanfront apartment there keeps Porquerolles on the horizon.
