Hydrangeas of the Lake, in Hossegor
It is a chic refuge from the Les Domaines de Fontenille hotel collection, with the atmosphere of a surf lodge facing the sunrise and on the marine lake. Yann Deret
Inaugurated last summer and already labeled "Relais et Châteaux", this intimate hotel (29 rooms with terraces) nonetheless cultivates the local relaxed seaside spirit. For their fifth address, Les Domaines de Fontenille imagined a "Surf Hotel" inspired by those of the Hamptons on the east coast of the United States: design and raw materials, surfboards at the entrance, short circuit cuisine around planchas , an "organic" spa and a beautiful swimming corridor overlooking the marine lake. From 145 € per night with breakfast.
