La Co(o)rniche L The Pearl of Arcachon
a Co(o)rniche stands out like a figurehead, overlooking the Pilat-Plage neighbourhood. Fitted out by the celebrated designer Philippe Starck, this elegant, unabashedly luxurious family-run hotel remains true to its origins. Guests are made welcome in imaginatively decorated surroundings inspired by the superb location. La Co(o)rniche is also an essential meeting place for Bassin d’Arcachon regulars, abuzz with the sound of conversations, where you never know who you’ll bump into. By Marine Pasquier
