Seaside Belle Époque Hôtel de la Plage, Saint-Palais-sur-Mer

Hyper-detailed, photorealistic scenic view of the Hôtel de la Plage in Saint-Palais-sur-Mer, France. The classic French Belle Époque design features a cream-and-stone façade, tall sash windows with shutters, wrought-iron balconies, and a slate roof. A striped canvas awning shades a quaint terrace with red geraniums in terracotta pots. The hotel sits along a sunlit Atlantic promenade with a low stone balustrade, vintage lampposts, and iron railings. In the foreground, a bicycle leans by the railing as a couple strolls and seagulls circle over a calm, blue sea that sparkles under a warm golden-hour sky. The palette blends ivory, soft yellows, pale blues, and sage greens to evoke timeless coastal French charm and Belle Époque elegance.
