La Réserve Ramatuelle

Perched high on one of the most well-known peninsulas in Europe and enjoying glorious views over the Mediterranean Sea is La Réserve Ramatuelle, the creation of entrepreneur and luxury hotelier Michel Reybier.

The secluded estate consists of the main hotel, a spa and standalone villas and is immersed in the beautifully quiet surroundings of nature. Nearby is the pretty village of Ramatuelle and just 10 kilometres away is the iconic town of St. Tropez. The nearest beach is but a mere 2 kilometres from the property.

This is an utterly stylish hotel, designed with a contemporary vision of simplistic elegance and embracing the surrounding fabulous sea views and location in the midst of nature. Service is of the highest possible level and unpretentious with every possible need catered for, delivered with complete discretion.

Each of the hotel’s 19 suites and 8 rooms enjoy a private terrace which basks in direct sunlight and beyond this, some have a private garden space also. The rooms and suites range in size from 50 to 190m2. Refreshingly, mineral water and soft drinks (as well as teas and coffees) from the minibar are included in the room price as is a shuttle service to St Tropez, Ramatuelle or nearby beaches.

For families, small groups of friends or simply those looking for the ultimate in privacy, the 14 villas range from three to six bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, and each villa has a private pool set in perfectly manicured, fragrant private gardens. The villas have been equipped to the

highest standard and carefully decorated to create a home from home atmosphere.

The style and décor fuses the essence of the Mediterranean with modernity using terracotta tiles and natural fabrics to contrast with the immaculate white walls and crisp linen. Residents of the villas have full use of the hotel’s facilities as well as having butler service and daily housekeeping.

Such are the high standards of La Réserve hotels, due to the owner’s keen interest in gourmet cuisine and fine wines, it is no surprise to know that this hotel’s restaurant, La Voile, has earned a coveted Michelin Star. Executive Chef Eric Canino has created a space for absolutely culinary creativity using the finest ingredients, drawing on influences from Provençe and the South of France, however with a twist…no butter or oil is used in the cuisine at La Voile and thus the classic richness of French fine dining has been turned on its head and you won’t have to worry about over indulgence and feeling heavy!

Finally, no hotel such as this would be complete without a state-of-the-art spa. Given the owner also owns a number of anti-ageing destination medical spas, this is another area where the design and concept is entirely modern and transformative. 11 treatment rooms, indoor and outdoor pools, steam room and fitness room and a team of therapists offering the latest treatments and therapies will ensure that your stay at La Réserve Ramatuelle also encompasses a strong element of well-being.
