La Mer à Boire

Discover our most sea-kissed yurt, La Mer à Boire, also affectionately known as the “Pink Yurt”!

Nestled right beside the beach—so close you’ll feel like you’re floating. Inspired by a sailor’s haven, its bold raspberry-pink exterior contrasts beautifully with its more rugged, nautical interior: ropes, amber bottles, eclectic chairs, and oceanic accents create a cozy, sea-swept retreat.
