An 18th-Century Estate on the Mediterranean Shore

Le Mas de la Gavaresse, a former wine-growing estate set within a sweeping Mediterranean garden, offers the perfect setting for a stay where every shared moment is chosen — up to 20 people, in peaceful surroundings between sea and hillside.

The authenticity of the place, far removed from standardised accommodation, is an invitation to live a truly unique experience. In the garden, under the pergola, on the terrace, at the beach or along the forest trails — your stay here unfolds at your own pace, day after day.

The stage is set. The time is yours.

Designed and managed with an eco-responsible ethos, Le Mas de la Gavaresse embodies a sustainable vision of tourism — one that respects both its environment and its history.

A rare configuration: vast communal spaces combined with the privacy of three independent gîtes united within a single property. A precious balance between group life and individual freedom.

And your stay can go even further: our catering partners and private chefs take care of the meals — so you can fully enjoy your holiday.

The luxury of the authentic: swimming in open water

In keeping with our environmental commitment, we have chosen not to install a pool. Just a few minutes on foot, the Mediterranean offers an incomparable natural playground: swimming, cove exploration, snorkelling, paddleboarding, or simply enjoying the water.

Less constraint. More freedom.

Quiet and serenity are integral to the spirit of this place. To preserve this quality of life and out of consideration for our neighbours, Le Mas de la Gavaresse is not suited to party stays or particularly noisy gatherings.
