Beit al Batroun is the perfect Mediterranean haven to enjoy sea views, mountain air and the charming interior filled with restored vintage pieces and handcrafted works by owner Colette Kahil.
A family-run guesthouse, owner Colette Kahil worked for a decade with architect Wadih Chehaybar to create a house influenced by traditional Lebanese rural constructions, using upcycled materials from around the world. The cozy interior design features restored vintage pieces, innovative design ideas, and handcrafted works by Colette, a mosaicist.
Colette offers up to five double bedrooms from April to November, along with a breakfast buffet using local produce and dinner and cocktails served on the terrace in the evenings.
Why we love it: The elevated location overlooking the Mediterranean, its cozy and beautifully designed interior, its delicious homemade Lebanese breakfast.
