Why we love

  • Seawater swimming
  • French riviera design
  • Estérel backdrop

“Red Estérel cliffs, striped Riviera glamour and a seawater pool carved into the Mediterranean edge”.

Les Roches Rouges sits directly against the Mediterranean outside Saint-Raphaël, with the red rock of the Estérel behind it and almost nothing separating the hotel from the sea. The architecture keeps a crisp mid-century Riviera spirit — white façades, striped awnings, pale timber and flashes of orange — while most rooms look straight across the water. Its most memorable feature is the natural seawater pool cut into the rocks beside a second swimming pool, with long lunches, swimming, paddleboarding and evenings on the terrace giving the hotel the easy rhythm of a classic Côte d’Azur summer.

Les Suites Cinabre

Hotel

Europe, France

From $990

Les Suites Cinabre are two private apartments above the boutique of Cinabre, the Parisian silk accessories brand, in the Cité Bergère, a 19th-century passage in the 9th arrondissement. The street has barely changed in two centuries and is now partly listed as a historic monument. Each suite measures 100 square metres and was designed by Necchi Architecture. One has warm brown tones, rosewood furniture and a winter garden, and the other has a bold floral tapestry, a large curved sofa and an English-style wooden bathroom. Fabrics come from Pierre Frey, the handmade beds from Hästens, and the robes, scarves and stationery from Cinabre itself. Opéra Garnier is a short walk away.

Airelles Château de la Messardière

Hotel

Europe, France

From $1,200

Located on a hillside above Saint-Tropez, Château de la Messardière occupies a 19th-century estate surrounded by extensive Mediterranean gardens, with views toward Pampelonne Bay and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Restored by Airelles as a resort rather than a formal palace hotel, it combines historic architecture with multiple pools, a large spa, several restaurants and access to a private beach club on Pampelonne. Saint-Tropez and the beach remain close, but the elevated setting gives the property a noticeably more secluded feel.

70 Hectares…& l’Océan

Hotel

Europe, France

From $195

70 Hectares... & l’Océan is a 32-room retreat set among the pine forests of Seignosse, overlooking the golf course and close to the Atlantic coast of southwest France. The architecture takes its cues from the surrounding landscape, with extensive use of timber, large windows and interiors that combine contemporary furniture with natural materials. Days revolve around the outdoors, from surfing and golf to cycling around Hossegor, while a restaurant, spa and pool make it easy to stay within the property between excursions.

Ritz Paris

Hotel

Europe, France

From $2,500

Few hotels have influenced the idea of luxury quite like the Ritz Paris. César Ritz opened it on Place Vendôme in 1898 with chef Auguste Escoffier, introducing innovations that were radical for the period while attracting a remarkable cast of residents and regulars, from Coco Chanel to Ernest Hemingway. Its gilded salons, grand suites, formal gardens and legendary Bar Hemingway still carry the rituals of old Parisian luxury without turning the hotel into a museum.
