Tuba, Mediterranean restaurant and hotel in Goudes district, Marseille, France
Tuba is a restaurant and hotel in the fishing village of Goudes with five beachfront cabins directly on the water and three rooms designed with minimal style. The spaces feature natural materials like seagrass and plywood and overlook the rocky cove.
The property evolved from a former diving club that the legendary free diver Jacques Mayol visited regularly. This transformation ties the location's maritime past to contemporary hospitality.
The Bikini restaurant at Tuba presents Mediterranean small plates crafted by chef Sylvain Roucayrol, previously of Caché Paris, alongside local wines.
The location sits on a rocky cove and is reached through narrow village paths best explored on foot. Space is limited, so quiet is a defining feature of the experience.
The chef serves dishes like oysters with fish roe and clams in vermouth blanc, combined with simple ingredients such as orange salad with dried mackerel. Such pairings reflect decades of cooking traditions from the fishing community.
