Villa Seren
Cool-chic, eco-conscious, Art Deco-inflected. Warm but restrained. Think surf-town soul with boutique polish — not flashy, just well-considered.
Spa access is €25 per person for non-hotel guests, but free for hotel guests who book a treatment — worth bundling
Why It Matters
One of the very few 4-star boutique hotels in Hossegor with a full spa, solar-heated pool, and direct lake frontage. Green Key certified. Listed in both the Michelin Guide and Tablet Hotels. The entire building uses solar panels for hot water and pool heating, zeolite pool filtration, and bans single-use toiletries. Artisan interiors sourced locally. Restaurant sources 80% of ingredients from within 150km.
Villa Seren is a 4-star eco-responsible boutique hotel sitting directly on Hossegor's saltwater lake, opened in 2016 on a site originally home to an 1898 villa. The wood-and-concrete building blends deliberately into its lakeside setting, and the interior is furnished by local artisans with warm tones, rattan armchairs, and Art Deco-influenced lighting. 'Seren' is the Gascon word for serene — and the place genuinely earns it.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Appartement Joia
The top-of-the-range option: two lake-view suites connected to a 75m² brand-new living space, giving you 165m² total with a 60m² terrace. Open kitchen, living room, and dining room — full apartment living with hotel service included. For groups or families who want real privacy without giving up the amenities. The best sunsets in the building happen from this terrace.
165 sqm
Dream Suite
A 50m² lake-view suite sleeping up to 4 guests. Larger seating areas and the same quality finish as the Seren rooms but with considerably more space to spread out.
50 sqmGrain de Sable
The entry-level option at 18m² — compact but well-finished. Town-facing rather than lake-view, so you trade the panorama for a more accessible price point. King-size bed, walk-in shower, Bluetooth sound system, smart TV, minibar, espresso machine, and A/C. It does what it needs to do without fuss.
King · 18 sqmJoia Prestige Suite
Two magnificent lake-view suites merged into one 90m² unit — the most spacious conventional suite on offer. Two private terraces (12m² and 7m²) both overlook the lake. Italian-style walk-in shower, separate WC, king-size bed (or twin configuration), and a living room with convertible bed. One configuration is fully wheelchair-accessible with a double walk-in shower. Sleeps up to 5.
King or Twin · 90 sqmJoia Suite
One of the hotel's newer additions at 50m², added to the range in 2025. Lake views, up to 3 guests, same high-quality furnishing as the rest of the property.
50 sqmSeren Room
The hotel's signature room category and the one most people come here for. 30m² with a private 12m² terrace looking straight over the lake — and that view is genuinely special. Walk-in shower or bath (your call), king-size bed, double entrance, separate WC, smart TV, minibar, and espresso machine. Quiet enough to hear the water.
King · 30 sqmTribu Suite
The family option — 50m² with lake views and configured to sleep up to 5. Designed with families in mind, with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, walk-in shower and bath. Balcony with lake views. The name 'Tribu' means tribe, which tells you exactly who this room is for.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.
The hotel hosts rotating art exhibitions within its interior spaces. Recent example: Jean-Louis Longuefosse, an ocean-inspired painter, exhibited in February 2026. These are typically complimentary to view.
Bikes available for hire directly from the hotel. Hossegor is flat and crisscrossed by bike paths through the pine forest — you can reach the surf beach, lake circuit, or the town center on two wheels without breaking a sweat.
Fully equipped meeting room available. The hotel offers bespoke business packages including lake-view Seren rooms, breakfast, and meeting room use. Private salons available for informal client meetings.
Solar-heated outdoor pool with massage jets. Free for hotel guests; €25 for day visitors (though note some reviews suggest afternoon use after checkout may incur a fee).
Paddle boards available on-site for use on the Hossegor marine lake. Calm, flat water makes this ideal for beginners and those just wanting to drift around and look back at the town.
Yoga sessions available on-site. Early morning sessions by the lake are mentioned in hotel editorial content.
