Nestled on the shores of Hossegor's marine lake, in a protected natural setting 200 meters from the ocean, Les Hortensias du Lac reinvents the surf lodge spirit in a chic, natural and elegant version. A blend of Basque-Landes design, wellness rituals and a lifestyle focused on nature, this emblematic Fontenille Collection hotel combines sport, relaxation and refinement. The ideal address for a year-round getaway on the Landes coast.
The call of the sea
Hossegor is much more than a seaside destination: it's an art of living between pine forest, Atlantic Ocean, marine lake and changing light. Les Hortensias du Lac enjoys an exceptional location, on the front line of the lake and just a stone's throw from the legendary Gravière beach. Ideal for observing the tides, meditating at sunrise or riding the waves. Whatever the season, the atmosphere is soothing, iodized and inspiring. You're in a natural sanctuary, open to the outside world and ready to let go.
An ideal location
Our hotel is located on the shores of the marine lake, just a few minutes by bike from the central beach and the city center. The perfect place to unwind without ever getting bored. Borrow a vintage bicycle and explore the quiet lanes, lively terraces and secret beaches. The setting offers a rare balance between bustle and tranquility.
Nature in Hossegor
- Bike rides along pine-lined cycle paths
- Birdwatching in the lake marshes at sunrise
- Paddle between salt and fresh water, in absolute silence
- Forests ideal for meditation, trail running or just wandering around
Here, nature is omnipresent, powerful yet gentle. It invites you to slow down and inspires a return to the essentials, in the tradition of Fontenille's wellness stays.
Culture & terroir
In Hossegor, stroll between traditional markets, the 1930s Maison Louisiane, art galleries, bookshops and independent boutiques. A concentrate of authenticity and style. Basque-Landesque architecture, red and white facades, beach huts and cafés on stilts make up a lively, inspired postcard.
Wellness & signature treatments
Le spa des Hortensias, a 450 m² space overlooking the lake, combines contemporary aesthetics with a calming atmosphere. The muffled sounds of water, plant-based scents, and dim light filtering through the drapes all invite deep disconnection. Hammam, sauna, Nordic baths, yoga sessions, and innovative myBlend treatments and protocols come together to offer an immersive and regenerating experience.
A sanctuary where you can reconnect with yourself, extend the benefits of the ocean and align yourself with the tempo of nature.
Surf lodge, the spirit of home
Inspired by the great surf hotels of the Hamptons and California, Les Hortensias offers a pure seaside style: light wood, natural materials, sober design and soft lighting. The 25 rooms and suites open onto the lake, pines or dunes. Here, you can live barefoot, to the rhythm of the sun, from early-morning paddling to sunset on the terrace. A simple, aesthetic art of living, deeply rejuvenating.
Tableware & panorama
The restaurant overlooks the lake and offers fresh, local, iodized cuisine by Philippe Moreno. For lunch, savours of the Landes region and grilled meats at the Beach House. In the evening, dine in front of the last glimmers of daylight. A complete sensory experience where produce, scenery and tranquillity come together in perfect harmony.
