Hugely atmospheric and brilliant for romantic couples or well-heeled travellers.
  • Villa Seren has a swish, contemporary feel, with lake-view rooms and suites clad in moody, grown-up tones. Families are welcome and will love the heated outdoor pool, but the spa and wine and tapas bar feel especially well-suited to stays with friends or as a couple. A trendy boutique choice in Hossegor.

Gorgeous and eco-focused, hidden inland of Hossegor.
  • Relais de la Poste promises an exceptional stay in luxurious rooms and suites set within a seven hectare park. The indoor and outdoor pools, gym and tennis court are excellent. The big draw is the two-Michelin-starred La Maison Coussau where Chefs Jean and Clémentine Coussau work with local producers to source top-quality ingredients for their gastronomic menu.
  • Le Prés d'Eugénie is perhaps best-known for its three-Michelin-starred restaurant, headed by Chef Michel Guérard. The 8-10 dish tasting menus is marvellous.
