You’re Going to Want to Check Out this Floating Hotel in France

Just 12 miles down the road from Avignon, among the vineyards of Sorgues’ Chateauneuf-du-Pape, you’ll find Cabanes des Grands Cépages: a new floating hotel constructed by Parisian design firm Atelier Lavit—the same firm behind Off Paris Seine.

Their latest collection includes 15 Mediterranean-style floating cabins perched on stilts in the Lionne River in southeastern France. The eco-estate consists of both duo cabins and family cabins, circular and square in shape, with minimalist interiors of natural paneled wood, floor-to-ceiling sliding doors, and overhead skylights which flood the space with light. Each cabin has a timber-screened wraparound deck for privacy, and some have Nordic ultra-bio-ozone baths—AKA naturally purified hot tubs. (A must for traveling couples.)

When you’re not chilling indoors, Cabanes des Grands Cépages can also arrange activities, including wine-centric excursions to nearby vineyards and dinners at must-try Provencal restaurants. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to get back to France (or to go for your first time), this is it.
