Riviera Heritage Reimagined
Inspired by the Côte d’Azur’s grand coastal villas, the hotel’s design evokes 1930s Riviera chic with a fresh, modern twist. Think azure and ivory tones, sea-reflective hues, and artisanal touches — like Biot glass accents and design elements reminiscent of the famed Villa Kérylos.
Each of the hotel’s 102 rooms and 30 suites is a serene sanctuary, with a color palette chosen to evoke calm and coastal elegance. Floor-to-ceiling windows open onto stunning views — whether it’s the rolling hills of the Vallée des Merveillesor the endless blue of the Mediterranean.
For those seeking a heightened stay, the Suites Merveilles offer a peaceful escape that’s perfect for romantic weekends or family holidays. And for the ultimate indulgence, the Victoria and Céline Suites on the hotel’s top floor include expansive terraces with private whirlpools — made for sunset toasts and quiet contemplation.
Elevated Dining at Taulissa
The hotel’s signature restaurant, Taulissa, is a destination in its own right. Helmed by chefs Glenn Viel and Fred Grava, the cuisine is rooted in the Riviera’s culinary heritage while celebrating local, seasonal ingredients with creativity and flair.
Dining here is more than a meal — it’s an experience. From seafood brought in fresh daily to inventive presentations at your table, each plate is crafted to delight. A standout dish? The “Pêche du Jour,” which left us speechless: perfectly cooked fish, served with tender summer vegetables and a stuffed baby courgette — delicate, delicious, and deeply satisfying.
The spacious restaurant, with room for up to 200 guests, blends indoor elegance with breezy outdoor seating. A live seafood tank and custom preparation tables bring the kitchen action right to the dining room — enhancing the theatre of the meal. With live DJ sets and an ambiance that evolves from sunlit lunch to sultry evening, Taulissa offers Riviera dining at its most vibrant.
Adjacent to the restaurant, the Taulissa Bar continues the journey with inventive cocktails and refined tapas. The panoramic sea views from the terrace set the tone for leisurely afternoons or lively evenings, depending on your mood.
