Il adopta la station, conquis par sa grande plage de sable, par l'ambiance et l'art de vivre de son pittoresque port de pêche, par d'inoubliables parties de pêche et - d'après certains - par les soins de thalassothérapie qui lui furent délivrés dans une clinique en bord de mer.

Si l'hôtel de son premier séjour, le Grand Hôtel Pommier, est devenu un restaurant, le Quai des Artistes, l'hôtel de son deuxième séjour, l'hôtel Bellevue et d'Angleterre. C'est dans cet hôtel Deux Étoiles plein de charme, idylliquement situé sur les quais, que l'on vous propose de séjourner dans le sillage d'Hemingway......"
