hotel Guide
Facilities
- 52 rooms, including 14 suites.
- All Lily of the Valley suites feature a large, 30 m2 terrace, which looks onto the Mediterranean or the Cap Lardier estate – the green lungs of the Riviera.
- While every room showcases the distinctive Starck aesthetic—from abstract-art cushions and thatched lampshades to elegant curvy pottery—the unparalleled views from their sea-facing accommodations are simply mesmerising. In these rooms, the dazzling azure waves sparkle so brilliantly, the elaborate interiors almost become a beautiful secondary focal point. To experience this breathtaking panorama, we suggest a Deluxe Sea View Room or a Deluxe Sea Suite.
- There are two lengthy pools, both outdoor and heated, but the one in the Wellness Village is for adults only.
- Just a short stroll from this idyllic retreat, the beach awaits. And for your ultimate comfort, sunloungers, parasols, and chilled rosé are ready for you at our exclusive Lily by the Sea beach club.
Wine & Dine
- There are two restaurants: Vista and Village Restaurant, offer distinct culinary journeys. Village Restaurant, in the Wellness Village, focuses on plant-based cuisine. Vista, with a star sommelier and Mediterranean views, serves classic French fare like Vitello Tonnato and rock-fish soup, plus a fresh catch of the day.
