Domaine Du Mas de Pierre

A 76-room wellness retreat within a revamped and restored medieval era Provençal town, with a palm-tree lined lagoon, three pools, and a 22,000 square foot spa.

Peckish. Menu offerings within the four bars and restaurants are so toothsome they’ve helped cement the hotel’s membership in Relais & Châteaux; much of the produce is grown in the on-site gardens.

Sweet dreams are made of this: a storybook getaway that’s as delicious and interesting as it is good looking. Guest rooms are tucked within terracotta roofed structures that are centuries old, yet just reborn for today’s aesthetes, with serene yet sumptuous interiors—all with their own private outdoor areas for lounging in the Provençal sun. The six rooms in La Bastide des Fleurs are adults-only and come with butler service, natch; in the new bastide, the Prestige Suite Jacuzzi Suite is a Francophile’s dream with its Toile de Jouy fabrics and Louis XV armchairs.

There’s a lagoon. Yes, a lagoon—with a sandy beach, tiki umbrellas, a waterfall, and a bar where you can pick up everything from fritters to avocado-topped burgers. (It’s all man-made, of course, but paradise nonetheless.)

The Moment

You’ve spent the morning living large in the spa, with its hydromassage benches, hammam, snow cave, and herbal sauna. And now it’s high time you really treated yourself: to lunch at La Table de Pierre, where dishes include lamb with fermented plums and a dessert of candied kumquats with pear compote and tonka crisps.
