"This pale ocher, turreted castle dating from 1904 sits atop a wooded hill with 25 acres of manicured grounds and umbrella pines, offering an art-deco–inspired lobby, elegant sea-view suites and a sleek Valmont spa designed by Christophe Tollemer. The resort buzzes with family-friendly offerings — including a pirate-themed Kids’ Camp villa with arcade games, pool, restaurant, cinema and outdoor sports — and three new dining concepts ranging from Provençal classics to Japanese fusion, plus a Rolls‑Royce shuttle to a stylish private beach club for seafood and Mediterranean swims." - Lanie Goodman
