Villa La Tosca can be hired in full for residential seminars, management committees, team-building and retreats for up to 20 people. It stands on the waterfront at 10 Allée du Bassin in Lanton, on the Bassin d'Arcachon, in a house listed as a historic monument. The group has the whole villa to itself, with nine bedrooms and a 4,000 m² park and garden.
Seminars and company events
The villa's business offer is for in-person, residential events: seminars, internal team-cohesion days and strategic committees. The team has experience with professional events and builds the format with the client according to its goals. The villa describes itself as a setting for reflection and collective intelligence, away from standardized venues.
Activities can be added around the work sessions. The villa lists communication workshops, team-building, leadership coaching and stress-management sessions, as well as experiences such as paintball and cooking workshops. Sailing, golf, kayaking, cycling and hiking are also named. Choose them to match the objective of the event.

The park, terrace and garden cover 4,000 m² and give private access to the beach.

Breakfasts, welcome coffees and breaks can be provided. You can choose a private chef or a caterer, and menus are made to measure. The semi-professional kitchen lets a chef cook on site. Local products are put forward, such as oysters, seafood platters and Atlantic fish. In warm weather, meals can be served on the terrace or in the park.
