Château Saint Martin & Spa

Built on the ruins of a Knights Templar castle with sweeping views across France‘s Côte d’Azur, this luxurious hotel captures the soul of Provence.

On the other hand, its Michelin-starred cuisine, restorative spa, private helipad and contemporary spirit offer the prestige of the French Riviera.

Spacious and flooded with natural light, the 46 rooms and suites are an oasis of calm with classic, period-style furniture, rich fabrics, marble bathrooms, and exquisite views. Most feature a balcony or terrace while the Duplex Suite offers extra romance with its secret, top-floor bedroom. For a peaceful sense of seclusion, opt for one of six private villas dotted around the gardens.

Le Saint-Martin offers Michelin-starred cuisine with ingredients sourced from local producers and the kitchen gardens, accompanied with a superb selection of wine. Opt for more rustic cuisine in L’Oliveraie, nestled beneath ancient olive boughs.

Spend lazy days lounging on the terrace, stopping for the occasional dip in the infinity pool. Work up a sweat on the tennis courts, wander through the contemporary sculptures in the gardens, or head to the sublime spa for a little pampering.
