"Minutes from Perpignan and the Spanish border is the coastal enclave of Saint-Cyprien; behind its long stretch of beach, on an island in the middle of the lagoon of the same name, is — as you might have guessed if your French is in decent shape — the Hôtel Île de la Lagune. It’s a lovely little villa-style resort, a mere 30 rooms and suites, and styles itself “a large holiday home” — a slight exaggeration, perhaps, but clear evidence it’s got no mega-resort ambitions." - Tablet Hotels
