“A carefree holiday.
Normaly I organise retreats for my own guests but last summer I experienced a retreat togther with my kids! I truly have had a super relaxed taylor made camping holiday. We stayed in the awsome camper on le petit terrain. Direclty on the beach with free use of S.UP.’s a kayak and surfboards. Jord and Marine cooked lovely food and for once I was not the one in the kitchen. Even better I didn’t need to go shopping for groceries. Freshly baked pumpkin cake at the breakfast, veggies from the kitchengarden and Breton style Galletes for dinner. While they were making jam off berries from the field I would go snorkeling with my daughter or read a book. They took us on a sail trip and to beautiful little beaches that you wouldn’t find by yourself. It’s almost impossible to explain what it is like to go on such a customized trip. Above all it was very liberating. I could realy realx and the kids could play freely in a gorgeous natural surrounding. They went surfing and on other exciting activities. Like catching crabs of the reef, in ther pyjamas, picked tomatos and grilled marshmellows above a camprfire. Daily I woke up with a sunrise S.U.P. tour and I even gave it a try in the waves again ( surfing was a long time ago for me )! Being taken good care of, healthy food, a listening ear and nice little daytrips. Being at the ocean and getting space... Space for yourself and for the kids. They’ve manage to create a vibe that invetes you to be yourself. I guess it’s because they are. Authentic, friendly, with an eye for detail without being pretentious.
Rested, tanned and full of new inspiration we took the train from Britanny back home. Merci millefois, Jord and Marine! See you guys next year!”

“I first met Jord at the rancho and I immediately felt so comfortable and at ease with him. Almost like family. So when Jord introduced the family thing, I didn’t hesitate. The kids and I, had a super holiday. We loved to make fires on the beach, spend hours collecting stones and shells. Making fun with Jord and Marine. They both are so enthusiastic. There was never a real plan, we just did whatever, but we end up doing things together. We went skating, hiking, surfing, eating, dancing, swimming, singing, making cakes and fires. And so much more. For the kids and for me it really feels like family. Jord and Marine are so at ease that they create this super safe and peaceful environment, where everybody can be their best. We all can’t wait for the holidays to begin.”

“An off-the-road roadtrip with Côte et Rêve. No obligations, everything is possible. Chasing waves with the wind in the back. It’s crazy how life in a camper creates so much space. Not only because of the spaciousness of the ocean, but also because of the simplicity. Just being yourself, surrounded by beautiful souls. No societal standards that tell you to shave your legs, no in or out of fashion and no endless to-do lists. Just the rhythm of the waves and the rising and setting sun. Jord preparing breakfast while singing cheerfully. A morning pee with the sun on your buttocks. Searching for smooth mellow waves while the seawater washes away the last bits of worry. Afterwards, exhausted but satisfied, you can just slide your legs under the table for a four star lunch. In other words, an all-in hotel, but then into the wild and back to basics. A week with Côte et Rêve in the camper and you realize that you need so little. The à l'improviste script always works. A go-with-the-flow mentality, yet everything flows seamlessly together. Healing surf sessions, chilling out on scenic bays, getting fresh air along the wild cliffs and red wine by sunset. The hilarious slapstick and wise life-lessons of the camper guru are included for free. It all feels so natural, in and one with nature, that it seems like it was never any different. Yet such a pure spontaneity is increasingly rare on planet rat race. Thank you guys for refocusing my gaze on the horizon. I will surf on this positive vibe for a while to come.
Danku, Obrigada, Thank you.”

"Where to start...Above all, Jord and Marine are awesome people, making the stay mire like visiting "good old" friends than really a booked all inclusive holiday. The food is fresh and delicious. Jord and Marine leave it up to you on how much freedom you want which is nice and makes for a spontanous trip depending on how you feel and what the weather / waves are up to. I dont usually book holidays. Due to a three month old baby though, I decided for once to make the holidays comfortable and it was the best decision ever to go. I would recommend them to everyone looking for a special, customized and especially not your average tourist trip. Then again, maybe i wont recommend it because I'd rather just go myself again "
CLEO
"Still enjoying the aftermath of a Côte et Rêve surfweek in Bretagne with the most caring, lovely and especially funny people! Marine and Jord are an absolute power couple. They are able to make you feel at home in just a few minutes...well, the super delicious food makes it quite easy to feel at home. I had an absolute blast and learned a lot on all fronts, but especially about surfing. Bellyache laughs, great conversations about life, sharing amazing surf with beautiful souls. It is all included!."
MARC
“If you’re looking for a chill surf guiding and coaching ‘pro-couple’ that provides delicious, nutritious, healthy meals all day while you are on a road-trip visiting the best suiting surf spots, I would like to advise Jord and Marine
They will take you aboard on their cozy campervan and take care of you all the way ‘whatever floats your boa(r)t’…”
FELICIA
"Wow what a nice week where we got the full Côte et Rêve package of surfing, lovely food, surfmovies, a lot of laughs and also relax time. A place where you feel at home instantly. The b=onus camperroad trip of 2 days to a good surfspot was an absolute blast too!"
FLORIS
“Surfing 6 hours a day on many different boards. Jord gave me a ton of advise on how to improve my surfing. Great times!”
EMMA
"I loved the week I spend with Jord and Marine at Côte er Reve in September so much. A week of relaxing, great company and lots of laughs in combination with awesome surfs (plenty of them!), great coaching and yummy oh so yummy food... means to me the best recipe for a good surf holiday. Very soon I will be joining Jord in the camper for a road trip in Portugal... so excited!"
EDWIN
"The food was delicious, the surf was beautiful and my level of surfing has increased so much. I also loved the little 24 hr road trip with the camper to search for better waves. I loved everything and that's why i booked another trip next februari, looking forward to it"
EDEN
"I had the most unforgettable week with Jord and Marine! The food was amazing (I can't believe what he can do in a camper van), the beaches were incredible, and the company was the most fun. You'll catch some great waves and make some lasting friends - you won't regret it!"
RIK
“I could not give myself a better present then joining Jord and Marine
LINDSEY
"From the moment we stepped off the train, Marine and Jord (with welcome Croissants in hand) took care of everything. One of my favorite things about the trip was that Jord and marine put a lot of thought into building a great itinerary for us, but they were also totally flexible in changing things up day to day"
MAIKEL
"Jord takes you to spots which you probably wouldn’t have found by yourself. He makes sure you’ve got nothing to worry about during your holiday and it’s a great pleassure to be around him, in the water or chilling at the shore."
WIESKE
"Whether your focus is on surfing, being in nature or mindfulness: this is the ultimate escape, putting the ratrace on hold. I highly recommend this to anyone!"
FAMILY HAARMANN
“What we got was so much more then we expected. Jord and Marine are wonderful people and great hosts. What fascinated us straight away was how nice it is to share their lifestyle in what they show a simple and pure view on things. It made us realize once again where should be the focus….togetherness with the family, health and happiness. They always looked after our needs and we had two unfogettable weeks. We come back for sure!”
