Our verdict: book with your eyes closed!
A dream villa in the heart of the Calanques
A wellness break begins with a beautiful setting, and here the magic happens as soon as you arrive. Domaine de Canaille is one of the most beautiful properties on the Côte d’Azur. Just a fifteen-minute walk from the center of Cassis, this exceptional 600 m² home is set in 60 hectares of land in the Parc National des Calanques. A huge terrace overlooks the turquoise watersof the Arène beach, which can be reached in just a few minutes on foot via a private path.
Of course, it’s the breathtaking view of the Mediterranean that really catches the eye. The luckiest ones will be able to enjoy it from certain rooms, but for the others, don’t panic: yoga by the sea, how about it?
The villa boasts four reception rooms and twelve bedrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 24 guests. The property’s star attraction remains the large 13-meter heated swimming pool.
Marie Treppoz, an attentive hostess
Bought in 2016 by a couple of digital entrepreneurs, this family home has undergone a complete renovation to combine modernity, simplicity, comfort and technology. Marie, the owner, has been organizing the detox stays for several years. Marie is passionate about the subject of alternative therapies, and has surrounded herself with excellent therapists to offer top-quality stays. Among Marie’s qualities, which stand out in the many glowing comments received each year: her enthusiasm, her energy, her kindness!
The aim of these stays is to gently detoxify over a long weekend. In concrete terms, this means :
– Eat better by testing a formula combining freshly squeezed juices, monodiete and vegan cuisine, and by attending workshops/lectures led by professionals (naturopath, chef…).
– Calm your mind and live in the present moment with yoga, meditation and sophrology classes.
– Re-learn how to exercise regularly, through walking, cycling and postural gymnastics or pilates classes.
– Take time for yourself and disconnect from your daily routine (rest, swimming, massages…).
These four days will enable you to break with your habits and leave with new keys to a healthier, less stressful life. Whether you’re a beginner or already accustomed to detox cures, it’s important to give your body a real break from time to time…. And what if this was also the sweetness of life?
Rooms open onto nature
The estate has 12 rooms, which can be booked solo or shared. Most have magical sea views. Others overlook the garden. Of particular note is a 90m² master suite with sea views, an office and two private terraces. 2 twin rooms and an additional suite are available in a house located at the entrance to the Domaine.
