Definitely one for the yacht-owning set, the eye-wateringly expensive Cap Rocat is a luxury hotel ingeniously installed in a former seaside fort. Sitting on 2km of private headland, with perfect sight lines out to sea, two excellent restaurants, and 24 suites equipped with daybeds, multiple private terraces and most other conceivable luxuries, it's unlikely you'll regret the no-under-15s policy.
