About Hôtel La Plage
The resort town of La Grande-Motte isn’t your garden-variety Mediterranean getaway: conceived in the 1960s as an eco-friendly modernist seaside utopia, it’s a product of ambitious urban planning. While Hôtel La Plage is not as eye-catching — or as eyebrow-raising — as its pyramid-shaped neighbors, this luxury resort was designed in the same bold spirit. Low-lying and geometric, it sits right on the beach, with floor-to-ceiling glass revealing sweeping ocean views from most rooms. The look is minimalist but down-to-earth, with natural hues, clean lines, and lots of native wood, and all have private balconies or terraces. The private beach club, with rows of elegant white umbrellas shading cushioned deck chairs and an open-air cocktail bar, is a major perk in summer, though the shoreline is lovely for strolling throughout the year.
