Château de Valmer La Croix‑Valmer 5*
A Provencal bastide nestled among vineyards and pine groves.
Where estate-grown cuisine, garden serenity and subtle luxury merge moments from Gigaro Beach.
Hotel Overview
Château de Valmer is a storied bastide set within a five-hectare organic estate just 400 m from Gigaro Beach. Framed by century-old palm groves, olive trees and flower-lined terraces, the hotel blends rustic elegance and Provençal refinement. The 41 rooms and suites—including pavilion lodges—feel individual yet unified by antique furnishings, natural tones and a sense of place. It embodies relaxed luxury in a quietly expansive setting.
The Facilities at a Glance
Amenities include a heated outdoor pool nestled in the gardens, a Michelin-starred restaurant La Palmeraie using produce from its potager, a more casual garden-bistro Le Jardin, and a 500 m² adults‑only spa (Nucca) with heated indoor pool, Jacuzzi, sauna‑hammam and fitness room. A pétanque court, organic vineyard tours, bike access and shuttle to La Pinède Plage ensure moments of movement and repose.
Our Personal Recommendations
We suggest starting your morning with an espresso in the palm grove before harvesting herbs from the organic garden. Swim in the shaded pool and stroll through the vineyard path. For lunch, sample seasonal Riviera dishes at La Palmeraie under plane trees. In late afternoon, head via shuttle to La Pinède Plage for beachside rosé or water sports. As dusk falls, return for a spa ritual at Nucca before candlelit dinner amid cypress groves. A stay here feels timeless and authentically Provencal.
