Why People Love It

- High-tech rooms featuring surround sound and espresso machines
- Excellent Peruvian fine dining at the on-site Moloko restaurant
Quick Take: It's an ultra-cool luxury retreat, but thin walls, expensive food, and a 5-minute drive to town mean it's not perfect for everyone.
Reviewed by @that.hilton.life: My stay at Kube Hotel in Saint-Tropez was a total dream. Waking up to those ocean views and having breakfast by the infinity pool was everything. I spent my afternoons just soaking up the sun and sipping champagne. Worth every single penny for this level of luxury.
