A family home in the heart of a living landscape
There are places where you arrive gently, where you immediately understand that the stay will begin at the rhythm of nature. bonjourSauvage Saint-Jean-de-Luz, composed of 60 accommodations, is one of these rare places. Crossing the entrance marked by two stone pillars, remains of an ancient mansion, you enter an intimate space, protected by stone walls and hedges that create real plant cocoons. A feeling of calm sets in right away: here, everything invites you to slow down.
A domain shaped by trees and time
On the right, the reception overlooks the estate. On the left, a wood of century-old camellias rises like a memory of the past, giving the place an almost secret depth. As we move forward, we discover a patchwork of vegetation: African holm oaks, sometimes called Lebanese oaks, acacias, flowering shrubs such as pittosporums, cut hedges that sculpt spaces.
Each lodging seems sheltered by a different essence, as if nature had itself drawn the boundaries of the stay. This vegetal landscape, always in motion, offers shade, freshness and a silent presence that soothes.
PRESERVE, REGENERATE, TRANSMIT
We don't just admire it, we want to preserve it, regenerate it and pass it on to future generations. Each of our choices is designed to respect living things, each of our actions aims to preserve the environment. More than a vision, it is a profound commitment: to be actors of change, to defend a tourism that protects as much as it amazes.
The spot: a 180° view open to the ocean
Advancing to the edge of the estate, a discreet path leads to what many call the spot. A short name for an immense panorama. From this promontory, the view embraces the entire coastline, from biarritz all the way to Spain. In clear weather as well as in gray skies, it is a hypnotic sight, a horizon line that breathes.
Just below, surfers glide on Lafitenia, while on the right, an access leads to the Mayarco Beach, reachable by a staircase before crossing the rocks. It is one of those places where you like to stay a few minutes too long, just to look at the sea.
The peninsula: a sanctuary for lovers of peace and nature
At the bottom of the estate, a plateau nicknamed the peninsula hosts some privileged locations. Here, nature is more present, wilder, almost enveloping.
Those who stay there seek a form of elegant solitude: the ocean in sight, the wind blowing through the pine trees, the silence punctuated by the rolling waves.
A simple, preserved place, where you feel far from everything, but close to the essentials.
