Fodor's Review:

All the Napoléon-III glamour of 19th-century resort France is yours when you stay at this folie—a villa built by the Russian Prince Vlassov in homage to his "queen," Hortense de Beauharnais (daughter of Napoléon's beloved Joséphine and mother to Emperor Napoléon III). A magical grand salon topped with a trompe-l'oeil treillage, guest rooms with soaring, fairy-tale beds crowned with Empire-style canopies, and glamorous beach views are just some of the delights on tap here. The lucky guest who lands Room 4 will even get to bathe in Queen Hortense's own silver-plated bathtub. Pros: high-style paradise, intimate, quirky. Cons: A bit "de trop," une folie. Florence Benoît, owner
