Wood is the key element in Saffire Freycinet’s architecture, which gives the whole place an extremely pleasant, earthy vibe, in congruence with the surrounding scenery.
The outside of the resort is built in a modern style, one that’s often thought to resemble a spaceship (but in a good way). The glass expanse overlooking the bay is a favorite spot among guests. One thing is certain – whether you’re enjoying a fabulous dinner after a long day or waking up first thing in the morning in your suite, Saffire Freycinet guarantees spectacular views wherever you go.
