La Réserve Ramatuelle - Hotel, Spa and Villas

The Mediterranean is not immediately obvious in Ramatuelle; instead, it appears below, amongst the pine and holm oak trees of L’Escalet. Designer Jean-Michel Wilmotte has worked with this distance, using a palette of ochre, sand and white that allows the landscape to retain its sense of calm. Inside, ceramics from Vallauris and botanical frescoes inspired by Cocteau extend the Mediterranean atmosphere crafted in the workshops. In the morning, guests cycle along the ridge towards Camarat, Taillat or Lardier with a picnic from the chef. When they get back, Éric Canino cooks from the kitchen garden: spice-rubbed bluefin tuna, red mullet poached in seawater. Later, a boat trip leads to the Cistercian vineyard of Saint-Honorat, and a Contrast Therapy session or Better-Aging massage restores energy.

Accommodations

What we like

The adventure

A horseback ride through the vineyards, culminating in a swim from the saddle.

The panorama

Sea views over both Cap Camarat and Cap Taillat from the Panoramic Taillat Suite. Unapologetically blue.

The flavour

At La Voile, red mullet poached in seawater, with tomatoes, citrus and a reduction of its own head.
