Thalazur Saint-Jean-de-Luz - Hôtel & Spa ★★★★

The Thalazur Saint Jean de Luz Hôtel & Spa, just south of Bayonne and Biarritz, is the perfect intimate, luxury getaway to escape from the pressures of everyday life and recharge your batteries.

Its comfortable and bright bedrooms, some of which are equipped with their own private balcony overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, have been inspired by the iconic designs of the 1930s combined with traditional Basque touches and seaside vibes.

Share some small plates at the Erdiko tapas bar overlooking the hotel’s luscious gardens, where the goal is to promote fresh, local products in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere. The bar remains open throughout that day for lunch, dinner, or a late evening snack.

Or treat your palate at the Hélianthal restaurant in Saint Jean-de-Luz while taking in the breathtaking ocean view. The restaurant serves a simple and healthy cuisine with a range of fresh, flavour-rich dishes highlighting local and seasonal products.

But what makes the Thalazur Saint Jean de Luz Hôtel & Spa standout is its exceptional thalassotherapy spa where you can choose from a wide range of unique spa treatments. These have been carefully curated by experts using the ocean’s natural ingredients, including sea water, algae, and marine mud, to boost your health and wellbeing.

The hotel, right by the beach in the centre of the tranquil port town, is just a few kilometres away from the Spanish border where you can wander the streets of San Sebastian or Bilbao.

There are plenty of exciting activities to choose from and places to visit nearby. Explore the town and coastline on two wheels with bikes available directly at the hotel or take to the waves for some surfing or sailing with a local company. For those who are looking to maintain a healthy workout routine during their stay, the hotel also has a well-equipped fitness centre.
