What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
a thoroughly successful fusion of 1930s spirit and stylish, modern boutique hospitality.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Trestraou beach curves directly below the cliffs, and walking trails lead along the sculpted pink granite coast.
The rooms
Monochrome palettes echo 1930s Art Deco, and wide windows look straight out across the Baie des Sept-Îles.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated indoor pool and whirlpool sit beneath a pitched glass skylight with wide views over the water.
The spa
A Turkish hammam and sauna sit alongside treatment suites, and an open-air hot tub overlooks the beach.
Le Bar & sa Terrasse
The cocktail lounge serves Breton aperitifs across an illuminated dark counter and opens onto a sea-facing terrace.
Instead of the Celtic folklore and stone cottage idiom that have been the prevailing look of this stunning littoral since World War II, this 50 room hotel cops a Marin County attitude.
At the table
Le Bélouga serves regional Breton seafood and morning pastries behind floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the bay.
How it began
The hotel takes its name from the agapanthus, a blue perennial that flourishes along the surrounding Breton coastline.
