The house
MarriottPlayful timber hotel
This mass-timber build brings a relaxed, social rhythm to the technology park, trading corporate formality for casual poolside drinks.
What it’s good at
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Corporate offices and preserved greenery surround the grounds, with the Mediterranean coast at Antibes a short drive away.
The rooms
Rooms are compact and functional, leaving the socializing to the bar and the sun loungers outside.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Striped umbrellas and a wooden pergola shade loungers along the heated 25-meter pool, set against landscaped greenery.
The gym
Neon signs illuminate the 24-hour fitness room, where free weights sit beside a boxing bag.
At the table
Wooden swing seats hang beneath the poolside bar's canvas canopy. Inside, counters supply continental breakfast and grab-and-go snacks.
How it began

Architects AW² assembled the wings using prefabricated timber modules, preserving the plot's natural greenery to earn LEED Gold certification.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
