Villa Pouquete

With 160 square meters of space, Villa Pouquete welcomes up to eight adults into a serene, sun-drenched atmosphere. Inside, you’ll find a spacious, light-filled living area, three suites in the main house, and a fourth tucked away in a charming guest cottage.

As for the garden, it extends the “chic cabin” vibe — all greenery and laid-back lounging. And then there’s the yellow, the common thread running through the interior design, setting the tone from the moment you arrive: here, the sun doesn’t bother knocking before coming in.

The interior of Villa Pouquete plays with a California-inspired palette, created in collaboration with Kelly Wearstler for Farrow & Ball. Bright yellow, soft pink, gentle blue… “I wanted a sun-drenched house, a true beach house,” explains the architect. The furnishings, designed with a vacation spirit in mind, blend natural materials with bold statement pieces like a palm-shaped light fixture and chairs by India Mahdavi.

A special mention goes to the hand-painted illustrations in the bedrooms, created by Juliainlaland. “We wanted to have fun and create a real artistic direction. Every detail matters,” says Marie Uzeel. A sun here, a palm tree there… even inside, the house exudes the essence of summer, the sea, and salt air.

At Villa Pouquete, life is as much about the outdoors as it is about the indoors. In the morning, we walk to Mimbeau Beach for a refreshing stroll or a surf session in the ocean. Afterwards, we head to the Ferret market to fill our basket with fresh produce.

In the afternoon, it’s all about napping in the shade, swimming, and yoga in the garden. And in the evening? We gather around the yellow counter to chat the night away. Here, time slows down — and we make the most of it!
