Roquebrune-Cap-Martin
,
France
On the shoreline at Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, just beyond Monaco, Monte-Carlo Beach follows the curve of a rocky Mediterranean cove. India Mahdavi’s rooms and suites use terracotta, blue and graphic nautical details, with balconies angled towards the water. The season unfolds around the Olympic-sized seawater pool, private beach and striped cabanas, while Elsa serves Mediterranean cooking from a terrace above the coast. La Vigie, reached along the headland, adds a more secluded restaurant and club setting. The hotel’s low, tiled buildings sit between pines, gardens and the narrow band of sea.
