Following his doctor's advice, George decides to splurge his savings on a luxurious vacation at an exclusive seaside resort. He arrives at the Grand Hotel Pupp, known for its opulence and extravagant offerings. George is initially cautious and reserved, but he quickly embraces the opportunity to indulge in everything the resort has to offer.
As he settles into his extravagant suite and explores the resort, George strikes up unexpected friendships with the staff, including a flamboyant chef named Didier and a kind-hearted concierge named Ms. Burns. With their encouragement, George becomes more adventurous and daring, trying thrilling activities like skiing, extreme snowboarding, and even parachuting.

With his newfound confidence and carefree approach to life, George manages to win over the hearts of both the staff and the guests, transforming the atmosphere of the resort.
Meanwhile, George's carefree attitude also catches the attention of resort owner Ernst, who is impressed by George's genuine and positive impact on the guests.

As George's time at the resort nears its end, he starts reflecting on his life and the importance of relationships, experiences, and embracing each moment. He helps his new friends pursue their dreams and finds himself falling in love with Ms. Burns, the kind-hearted concierge.
However, everything takes an unexpected turn when George receives a call from his doctor, revealing that there was a misdiagnosis, and he is not terminally ill after all. Faced with the reality that he has been living on borrowed time, George must confront the choices he made during his holiday and the impact they had on those around him.
In a heartwarming conclusion, George chooses to embrace the lessons he learned during his "last holiday" and returns to the resort, where he confesses his love for Ms. Burns. George's transformed outlook on life inspires those he encountered during his stay, leaving a lasting legacy of love, joy, and living life to the fullest.
