The privileged natural setting in which we find ourselves, a historic rural village nestled in a special environmental protection area, ensures exclusivity, tranquility, and purity, ideal for a perfect break surrounded by nature. We are just a few meters from Balarés Beach, and all our spaces are open on all four sides to the surrounding natural landscape.
Around an old stone house and a granary, over a hundred years old, we have developed new spaces that are respectful of the surrounding environment. With a sustainable project, we have designed six apartments with warm, carefully decorated rooms, all the necessary amenities for a comfortable, independent stay, and all the services of a hotel so you can choose how you want to enjoy your vacation.

BALARÉS
The village of Balarés is made up of only three inhabited houses. It is located in a beautiful valley that forms at the foot of Monte Blanco, opening onto Balarés Beach, which has a picnic area with barbecues, integrated into a lush, ancient pine forest.
The old dock houses the ruins of the old Titania mine, where wolfram was extracted and shipped to Germany for use in the manufacture of weapons for World War II.
