1987
Four rooms
The first guests arrive. The roof leaks only a little.
Cap Solenne was a fisherman's house when Hélène and Marc Duval found it, with three rooms, a boathouse and a terrace nobody had swept for years.
They opened four rooms in 1987, built the restaurant on the rocks in 1994 and turned the boathouse into a spa in 2016. Their daughter Léa skippers the boat; their son runs the kitchen with Marc.
It is still small on purpose. Twelve rooms means we know every guest by the second morning.
