Les Hortensias du Lac

The 32 Best Family-Friendly Hotels in Europe | Condé Nast Traveler

"On the shores of Lake Hossegor, Les Hortensias du Lac felt like a midcentury-modern surf lodge with light, bright bedrooms, a bulb-string-lit terrace restaurant and a strong focus on the sea: surf lessons, paddle-boarding on the lake and a youthful surf culture are all on the doorstep. The hotel keeps things chic yet practical for families—jute rugs, relaxed seating and easy pool-to-beach access make it ideal for those wanting surf-centred family holidays without the rental hassle. " - Lauren Burvill

"This local institution boasting an idyllic location on the shore of Lake Hossegor extends a charming welcome to its guests. Chef Philippe Moreno, a protégé of Gérald Passedat, serves carefully prepared, high-quality cuisine, with well-executed dishes organised into a seasonal menu and a tasting menu. Fish from Capbreton's fish market and excellent poultry from the Landes area take pride of place. Enjoy your meal in the bright bistro interior, or on the pleasant terrace, in a chic, laid-back atmosphere." - Michelin Inspector
