The new masterpiece, designed by architects Liliana and Alain Meylan, provides its guests with everything one could expect from a dream vacation, in a picturesque setting in the heart of the Alpilles. A large 300-year-old plane tree towers over this house, which was once Paradou's town hall and public school. The massive façade in warm colors, its large arches, and stone lintels are reminiscent of the know-how of the past. The 18-meter infinity pool, the gardens, and the groves ensure the freshness needed to hide from the heat of the Provençal sun. The interior design combines traditional materials, antique furniture, and very comfortable equipment. The villa can sleep 14 guests with its 7 air-conditioned bedrooms, each featuring an independent bathroom.
This property refurbished to the highest standard is nestled in an amazing setting, in the heart of the village of Paradou, between Fontvielle and Maussane-les-Alpilles. You can unwind and enjoy the tranquility of the sunny swimming pool. The traditional pétanque court invites to organize friendly challenges with family or friends. In just a few minutes, you can savor the exceptional atmosphere of the scenic village, with its vivid cafes, artisan shops, and lovely restaurants. This villa is the ideal place to enjoy an authentic experience in Provence, combining traditional charm with modern comfort.
The huge plane tree, lavender, and olive trees welcome you with a special sensory experience in the heart of the Provençal countryside. The water shines in the sun, promising a quiet retreat where you can recharge your batteries in absolute serenity. It is the perfect spot for a morning meditation, a peaceful reading, or simply enjoying the tranquility of Provence. You can relax in the shade of the trees, sip a glass of local wine, and enjoy the sunset over the village. This Provençal garden is a place of relaxation and inspiration, be it al fresco meals, serene early morning yoga sessions, or evenings under the stars. The elegance of the swimming pool epitomizes the essence of comfort, fitting harmoniously into the unique charm of Provence. The sun loungers invite you to unwind, soak up the Provençal sun, and enjoy the sweet melody of the cicadas.
Inside, you find two spacious lounges with comfy sofas, while a large stone fireplace will ensure a warm ambiance during the cooler evenings. Admire the delightful decoration of the interior, a true ode to sophistication and authenticity, with its wooden beams and stone walls. The furniture is both simple and elegant, creating a warm and cozy ambiance, a peaceful retreat where every detail has been carefully thought out.
Gastronomy is taken into account since the villa boasts several dedicated spaces with professional equipment, both for the chef and those who improvise as cooks, during the holidays. A fully equipped outdoor kitchen invites you to cook using the products directly picked from the villa's own vegetable garden. The guests can also enjoy wellness activities (spa and massage, fitness coach), sports facilities on site (tennis and pétanque court) or nearby, and a wide range of cultural sights of the region.

Every room is unique, but each boasts a king-size bed, dark parquet floors, and natural organic materials, with a lime finish, in soothing colors, without forgetting those lovely details, like the copper bathtub with lion’s feet, which reminds one of the old-time art of living.
