The whole story

Paul, Bruno Solo, has just landed a big contract. With wife (Samia, Fatima Adoum), children and stepmother, he decides to celebrate that in a seaside hotel. All is well in the best of all possible worlds, when he learns that the contract is canceled and he is ruined. But he will act as if ... hence unexpected situations. The other story ... It is that of the place, because it contains almost the entire history of Ronce-les-Bains. July 17, 1856, at Maître Pougnard, notary at La Tremblade, Mr. Perreaudeau de Beaufief buys the Ronze estate from Antoine François Marquis de l'Astic, the land is part of the estate. Perreaudeau de Beaufief will be the first developer and creator of the resort.

As an anecdote, apart from the fact that the main building is the tallest and most voluminous construction in Ronce-les-Bains, its annex is worth a detour: the sea-side facade, with a view of the Marennes Oléron basin and the setting sun, is reserved for… bathrooms and toilets, the one on the street side, for living rooms!
