Confidently routed through 84 hectares of pine groves and open dunes, nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and the Landes pine forest in France’s southwestern corner, this 27-hole venue strengthens the region’s status as a premier golf destination.
Ideally located between Bordeaux and Biarritz and just 30 minutes from the iconic Golf de Seignosse, another Resonance Golf Collection venue consistently ranked among Continental Europe’s Top 20 Golf Courses, Golf de Moliets offers another compelling reason for discerning golfers to visit one of France’s most popular golf destinations, which has attracted both local and international players for over a century.
UNIQUE SETTING
“Golf de Moliets embodies the values we champion at Resonance Golf Collection: authentic experiences, sustainable beauty, and a passion for the game,” said Sébastien Roussellet, CEO of Resonance Golf Collection.
“Its unique setting, strong local character, and its notable reputation positions it as a cornerstone in the development of golf tourism in this vibrant region.”
Designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr., the 18-hole championship course at Golf de Moliets delivers a remarkable blend of challenge and beauty.
Four holes unfold along the oceanfront dunes in true links style, earning the course the nickname ‘the most Irish course in Aquitaine’ from seasoned Irish journalists.
The gently undulating topography gives each hole a distinct personality, while the sandy soil ensures year-round playability. Complemented by a nine-hole course ideal for beginners or shorter rounds, the 27-hole venue offers something for golfers of every skill level.
INVESTMENT
“As part of the Resonance Golf Collection, Golf de Moliets will benefit from an ambitious, 15-year investment plan of over €8 million that will allow it to become not only a benchmark for golfing excellence in both France and Europe but also a fully inclusive and sustainable site,” continued Sébastien Roussellet.
Environmental stewardship will be at the core of the project, with initiatives including the installation of solar panels, improved water management solutions, and the preservation of dune ecosystems, as well as educational campaigns on biodiversity — supported by nature trails that highlight the local flora and fauna.
Golfers, local residents and tourists will also benefit from new wellness activities, with the creation of a new fitness trail with outdoor exercise stations in the heart of Landes forest.
Almost a third of the investment will be allocated to practice area upgrades and a new hybrid clubhouse.
TRAINING GOLF’S FUTURE STARS
Resonance Golf Collection’s ambition for Golf de Moliets also sees it become home to a National Training Centre aimed at all level of golfer, with a special focus on paragolf, and officially certified for ‘Tourism & Disability’.
“Looking ahead, Golf de Moliets is also approaching a major milestone,” added Sébastien Roussellet. “Its 40th anniversary, in 2026, is an enduring symbol of excellence and inspiration on France’s breathtaking Atlantic coast and an important year with several plans, developments and events earmarked for the 27-hole venue.”
Beyond the fairways, the Landes region is a haven of natural beauty, vibrant culture, and outdoor adventure.
From the wild Atlantic beaches and vast pine forests to charming villages like Moliets-et-Maâ, it offers an ideal mix of relaxation and activity.
Visitors can cycle the renowned Vélodyssée trail, explore the Amazon-like Courant d’Huchet by boat, surf world-class waves, or tee off on premier seaside golf courses.
Rich in culinary delights and alive with local festivals and markets, Landes seamlessly blends authenticity with coastal style — a true ‘Landifornian’ escape between ocean and forest.
