The property

Retro-chic on a double bay

Grand Gaube is the LUX* flagship for design: Kelly Hoppen rebuilt it in a warm 1960s-riviera key — terracotta, rattan, banana-leaf green — across a headland with two distinct beaches. The dining is the other reason to come: Peruvian-Argentinian at INTI, a Creole table, the group's Beach Rouge, and Bodrum-style Mediterranean. The north-coast lagoon keeps the water calm year-round.
