Why Stay Here?

  Housed in a strikingly white modernist 1950s building, Les Roches Rouges is set in a preserved natural area of Saint-Raphaël between Cap Dramont and the Mediterranean along the charming French Riviera, surrounded by the fragrant Provençal landscape. It is 67km from Nice Cote d’Azur Airport. With the Saracen tower on neighbouring Île d’Or being the only other building in sight for miles, guests are welcomed by glorious sea views from their bedroom, balcony or terrace, restaurant table, lounger, pool or the pine-filled garden. The hotel is part of the Beaumier collection.

Spaces are enriched with charming vintage rattan furniture and a refreshing scent of bergamot. Every detail provides an enchanting homage to the allure of the Mediterranean coast, evoking a sense of holiday cabana vibes.

  Begin the day by heading outside for a yoga class on the terrace or in the gardens, a game of tennis at a nearby court, a dip in the plunge pool, a swim in the 30m rock seawater pool, lane pool or the sea, or a mountain-bike ride in the Estérel mountains, before heading back indoors for a wellness experience in the spa, which comprises three relaxing cabins for treatments using Kalmar and Holidermie products. Discover the Côte d’Azur coastline from the sea with one of the hotel’s double kayak canoes or paddleboards, or by catamaran. In the summer months, guests can join an expert-led diving course, and enjoy fishing, snorkelling and the hotel’s outdoor cinema screenings.
