The inn: a rose-plaster house with claret shutters and a striped awning over its terrace, above the sea

Above the harbour · Port Solenne

Twelve rooms in a pink house above the harbour, claret shutters open to the sea, and a breakfast that runs until eleven.

Ostra

Welcome

A quiet house by the harbour, and a long breakfast.

We are a family-run inn of twelve rooms, three floors, and one very old staircase. Nobody rushes you out of bed here. The shutters open onto the water, the terrace smells of coffee and fig leaves, and the harbour is four minutes downhill.

The rooms

Rooms with the shutters open.

Every room is different — a bath by the balcony, a bed under the beams, a window at the height of the masts. Each one comes with its own key.

    Beach towels and a basket

    Take them down to the cove. Bring them back sandy — we expect it.

    Bicycles to borrow

    Four town bikes by the gate, with a map of the flat routes.

    Fast Wi-Fi, if you must

    In every room and on the terrace. The sea is better.

    A late checkout, when we can

    Ask at breakfast. If the room is free, it's yours until two.

Nearby

Everything is downhill.

Leave the car behind. The harbour, the beach, and the market are a short walk from the gate — and we are happy to draw you a map at breakfast.
