La Tramontane Hotel Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer

Review by hotel critic

During my recent stay at Hôtel La Tramontane, nestled in the captivating Camargue, I was enchanted by the blend of comfort and natural beauty. The warm hospitality from the staff, including owner Beatrice, instantly made us feel at home. Our room, beautifully decorated, had a terrace overlooking the serene gardens and sparkling pool, creating the perfect spot for a quiet morning tea after a long day of exploring the stunning nature parks nearby. We relished the delicious French cuisine in the on-site restaurant, with its lovely pool views, which became our evening ritual. Breakfast was plentiful and the cozy ambiance of the dining area made it a delightful experience, with flamingos occasionally gracing the sky outside. With easy access to local tours, swimming, and even horse riding, I couldn’t help but feel this gem of a hotel was an idyllic base for anyone passionate about nature and adventure. While the property is charming and inviting, I’d recommend double-checking room sizes if you're coming with a partner—our cozy bed could have used those extra centimeters! Nonetheless, I’d definitely return, especially for the vibrant atmosphere and the promise of another magical sunset over the pond. La Tramontane offers a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, making it an ideal escape for travelers like myself who cherish both comfort and the wonders of nature.
