A motel in the middle of nowhere? Perhaps at first glance – but when you step through the shady corridors into your room, you immediately realise that the Hôtel des Cabanettes, this architectural gem, is more than just a place to spend the night. The Hôtel des Cabanettes is a tribute to the 1960s, designed by the visionary Armand Pellier, who combined concrete with warm limestone to create a futuristic retreat. Each of the 29 rooms has a private terrace overlooking the curved pool – an almost surreal sight, as if you had landed in an old road movie. The restaurant serves dishes that perfectly match the retro ambience, and if you want to explore the surrounding area, you can be in Arles in 20 minutes or on a safari through the wild Camargue. A place that not only delights nostalgics, but also design lovers.
