Hotels near Béziers-Vias Airport

Near the Béziers Cap d'Agde terminal, options are limited to Villeneuve-lès-Béziers, 5-10 minutes by car from the airport: handy for those with a dawn flight or a late-night arrival who don't want to drive all the way into town. The centre of Béziers, on the other hand, is 14 km away, about 15-20 minutes by taxi, or reachable by the line 210 shuttle to the train and bus stations; it makes sense for those staying more than one night or wanting to visit the city. Those heading straight for the sea at Valras-Plage or Cap d'Agde would do better to book directly there, because neither of the two areas above is handy for that destination.
