70 Hectares... et l'Océan

EXCELLENT STAY. KEEP IT AS IT IS, IT’S PERFECT! The pool, service, staff, breakfast. Everything was awsome. THANK YOU

70 Hectares is a world class boutique resort in the beautiful surf and turf (golf) area of Seignosse. The beach still has an untouched natural feel even with its “cabanes” (surf bars and grills) The hotel is well run from its young, attractive, well trained staff that always serves up delicious wines from their vineyards and culinary delights with a smile. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable with all the modern trappings; ie Nespresso machines and solid WiFi which are a must nowadays. My only suggestion, which I know is uncommon in France, would be to add coffee mate creamers for those of us who prefer café crème in the morning. The breakfast buffet was varied and delicious although the scrambled eggs weren’t warm enough and the bacon wasn’t cooked enough. The free flowing cappuccinos and fresh croissants with locally sourced jams made me forget though. The pool-side rosé and salads were crisp and delicious. Oh yeah and the pool itself was beautiful with confortable loungers. The duck magret and burrata at dinner were top notch. The two slow charge parking spots and two high speed spots (also a must these days) were much appreciated. Although I suggest they improve marking or signage in their parking lot, because twice in four nights, some not so environmentally conscious golfers took the spots despite small signs telling them they are reserved for hotel guests with EV’s. They don’t gouge you on their own wines and have reasonable market prices on everything else, well almost everything, their own olive oil which they sell is very good but a little steep at 34€ a 500ml bottle. My bad for not checking before buying though. The golf course looked beautiful but at a 100€ pp plus rentals and carts was a little much for us golfers who travel with our clubs when we really want to play. We may return with our clubs and sans kids someday ;-). Thank you for a lovely vacation, from our vacation in France.

The rooms were really nicely done and felt bread new. Large comfortable bed, very cool shower room, nice furniture. Balcony was nice, but above some part of the kitchen, so we did get a beeping delivery lorry wake up at 7.30 every morning. But overall happy with both rooms we had. Pool is small, but pleasant - More of a place to bob around and cool-off, than actually swim. Some games (table football, table tennis etc) available around the hotel. However, we thought service wasn't the best. My impression was the restaurant staff were trying to give us a wide berth as our French is poor and only the restaurant manager seemed to speak English - nothing untoward, just the (inexperienced) staff, were I think, hoping one of their colleagues would step in, but they didn't. Breakfast buffet was good, lots of choice and all high quality (though no full english! :-) ). Evening meals were slow, pretty unremarkable and expensive. I'd say what I had, but i can't remember it. Laundry took a long time to come back (wouldn't have bothered if I'd known) and was extremely expensive. Thoroughly recommend hiring an electric bike from there (at reception) - Loads of places to go and lots of cycle lanes etc.
