Sainte-Marguerite

Feel like a getaway from your getaway?

Trade luxury cars for fishing boats on Ile Sainte-Marguerite, where Fort Royal—the island's sole accommodation—lets you sleep in a historic fortress. From the Bazaine terrace, ancient stone walls frame stunning views of turquoise waters, while paths wind through fragrant forests of Aleppo and umbrella pines. The fort isn't just a hotel; it's a living monument housing the Museum of the Sea, surrounded by secret coves and crystalline waters. Whether exploring centuries of history or simply soaking in Mediterranean tranquility, this is island life at its most authentic.

Available for weekend stays outside school holidays, Fort Royal offers an extraordinary escape for families, couples, or solo travelers seeking something truly unique.
