From its pale-grey frontage to the light, clean-lined interior, the decor of this super-cool boutique hotel fuses New England styling with coastal references. A curved wall of French windows sweeps across the back and opens onto a decked terrace, giving everyone in the beachside restaurant a sea view, while lightwood floorboards and Lloyd-loom chairs add a relaxed, shoreline vibe. Unsurprisingly, seafood forms the centerpiece of a straightforward brasserie menu built around the abundant local larder, with some sunny Mediterranean flourishes for good measure – all done well.
