The 34 rooms and suites revel in Mediterranean warmth, in an eclectic style that leans more bohemian than modernist.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Tucked into residential pine groves on Chemin du Pinet, the hotel sits a five-minute drive from the lively Place des Lices.
The rooms
French doors open onto private garden terraces, leading into sunlit spaces finished with terracotta tiles, woven cane, and handcrafted ceramics.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The green-tiled outdoor pool is heated to 28°C and bordered by red parasols beneath umbrella pines.
The spa
Two intimate treatment rooms host organic Tata Harper rituals, set beside a traditional hammam.
The gym
The fitness room has cardio machines and free weights set against an exposed stone wall.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Beefbar serves prime cuts on the garden terrace for dinner, and shaded tables under the pines host Mediterranean lunches.
How it began
Founded by the Pariente family on the site of the former Benkiraï hotel, the property revived vintage Riviera village charm in 2019.
