Luxury 34-foot French Mobile Home Breaks the Norm With Phenomenal Elegance

If you weren't familiar with the O'Hara French mobile home builder, you've been missing out. This company was a pioneer in the industry when it opened its gates back in 1994, and there's a fabulous story behind it. It was founded by none other than Annette and Louis-Claude Roux, owners of the prestigious boat-building company Beneteau, known today as Groupe Beneteau.

In the early '90s, the boat-building industry in France was at a low point; as savvy business owners, the Roux couple managed to turn this crisis into a successful, trailblazing moment. Inspired by a visit to America, where mobile living is a long-standing tradition, they decided to start building RV-style mobile homes back in France. What started out as a small project primarily meant to save local jobs turned into a huge brand of its own.

Today, O'Hara operates as an autonomous company within the Beneteau Group, with specialized factories opened in the area of St-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie in the Vendee, where it all began. O'Hara is directly inspired by the Old South of the US, to which it brings its own French twist. Over the years, this pioneering mobile house builder has brought many innovations and has expanded its product lines. The Key West capsule brand is designed for premium campsite accommodation.

"Imagine the campsite of tomorrow" is what this French builder promotes and inspires its customers to do. The modern-day bungalows in the Key West collection truly redefine luxury campsite living. The unique formula behind this concept blends hotel-style elegance with maximum openness toward the outdoors.

On the one hand, as the builder puts it, "walls seem to fall away," creating an immersive outdoor experience; on the other hand, sophisticated details that you'd hardly find in typical mobile homes elevate the campsite experience to the most refined levels, in true French fashion.

The three-bedroom Key West mobile home merges this luxurious concept with generous accommodation capabilities. Designed to welcome a big family in style and as comfortably as possible, this lavish dwelling doesn't lose its sense of vast openness and indoor/outdoor flow for one moment. It all starts with generous proportions and an ingenious layout.

This Key West version is more than ten meters long (34 feet) and 4.45 meters wide (14.5 feet), and its floor space is cleverly divided into three beautiful bedrooms, a perfect lounge, and a big kitchen. It even has two separate bathrooms, which is indeed a rare luxury when it comes to mobile homes.

All in all, the Key West mobile home can accommodate six people and pamper them with hotel-style comfort. This makes it perfectly suitable for a larger family with more than two kids, as well as for couples who like to entertain and welcome overnight guests.

What makes this design particularly sophisticated is the exquisite balance between privacy and openness. The master suite was specifically placed so that it benefits from maximum privacy in two ways: first, the living room and the kitchen keep it totally separate from the children/guest rooms; second, it comes with a separate entrance that connects it directly with the natural surroundings.

Inside, this gorgeous suite reveals a huge bed with more than 90 cm (35.4 inches) of space to the sides and facing the glass doors for perfect wide views. The full-length heavy curtains, headboard with built-in storage, and elegant bedside tables are some of the unique hotel room touches.

Best of all, it comes with an en-suite bathroom equipped with an extra-large shower, a suspended conventional toilet, and ample built-in storage. Gorgeous double-sliding doors turn this resort-style suite into a lavish cocoon connected to nature. Wider, triple-sliding doors have the same fabulous effect in the lounge area, flooding it with an abundance of natural light.

A huge dining table with six chairs dominates this beautiful room, while the luxurious pendant light above adds a touch of glamour. A plush sofa and two cozy armchairs in neutral tones create the perfect relaxation nook surrounded by beautiful views. Everything from the curtains to the light fixtures and storage solutions was chosen to recreate the classic elegance of a luxury hotel room.

This open-concept section also includes an ultra-modern kitchen with huge storage capabilities. The premium appliances include a four-burner cooktop, a full-size fridge, and a built-in range hood. An elegant resin sink in a contrasting color, with a draining board, is seamlessly integrated into the generous work surface. With those sliding doors fully open, it basically feels like cooking in the open air. The clever placement of the dining area also invites dwellers to enjoy unforgettable dinners under a starry sky.

The Key West maximizes the camping experience while allowing guests to indulge in the purest hotel comfort. The two other rooms are a guest suite with two single beds and an elevated, loft-style kids' room with bunk beds. Both rooms come with ample integrated storage, lights, and generous windows fitted with insect screens. The guest room has its own bathroom fitted with a large shower cabin and a classic vanity, while the conventional, suspended toilet is placed separately.

On the outside, the three-bedroom Key West embodies the Old South elegance that defines this French brand. It flaunts premium cladding, contrasting white window frames, extra-large doors and windows, and even white ornamental columns for a striking effect. The sliding doors open onto a fabulous terrace with plenty of space for outdoor lounge furniture. With 40 square meters (430.5 square feet) of floor space and a fabulous terrace, the three-bedroom Key West seems vast and completely open to the outdoors.

The new Kew West capsule collection and all of the O'Hara mobile homes are available through mobile home dealers, and private customers looking to level up their campsite living experience can purchase pre-loved versions from private sellers.
