The room

A tree at the centre of everything

Orama is arranged around a sculptural tree of life: driftwood, orchids and hanging gardens rising out of a koi pool, beneath walls painted with a luminous jungle. By day it is green and open. After dark it glows.

  • Ce fût un véritable petit coin de paradis pour nous ressourcer. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été agréablement surpris : le lieu est encore plus beau que ce que les photos laissent imaginer !

    It was a true little corner of paradise for us to recharge. From the moment we arrived we were pleasantly surprised: the place is even more beautiful than the photos suggest.
