Our stay at Céline's

We had the opportunity to sleep here and it was an absolutely pleasant overnight stay. The owner, Céline, worked for a long time aboard a pleasure yacht, and you can feel it in every gesture. Everything is exacting, precise and well executed. And always with a smile. She often wears a black outfit that adds an exclusive touch to your experience.

Celebrating a special occasion? Everything can be personalized. If you've booked a massage, for example, it can be kept secret until the very last moment. But that's just one example.

When you arrive, you'll discover a home decorated with great taste and care. All the furniture has been chosen by Céline to create a warm atmosphere. Some of the furniture comes from her mother and grandmother. It's a rule we almost always find during our travels: if owners feel good about a place, then guests will feel good too.

During our stay, there was this music playing near reception. It's authentic and should bring back memories. Because a musical playlist always creates a very special atmosphere.

The 3 suites

2 • The Wine Cellar • Photo
3 • The Vineyard • Photo

All suites feature the following amenities: queen-size bed, hotel-quality memory foam mattress from Maison Aubertin, minibar, private bathroom with walk-in shower, hospitality products, whirlpool bath for 2, star ceiling, wifi and air conditioning. Here's a photo of the star ceiling. This can be disabled, of course.

The rooms are sublime and we love the creative floral decor. Scents of lavender and white sage. Everything is spotlessly clean. Complimentary tea, coffee and water. A mini-bar with softs, beers and bottles of wine is available at extra cost.

Life around the pool

On the terrace, there's a large swimming pool heated to 30°C, surrounded by 3 four-poster beds for 2 people. The pool is only accessible from May to November. A true oasis of tranquility and privacy.

In the morning, a delicious Provençal breakfast is provided. This is included in the price of your reservation. It is served in the comfort of your room in winter and by the pool in summer. Each room has its own table to ensure your privacy throughout your stay.

On the menu: squeezed orange juice or Pago (your choice), mini-viennoiseries from the village bakery, freshly baked bread, jams prepared by Céline's mom, honey from a beekeeper in Roquebrune, fresh fruit salad, homemade butter, flavored sheep's milk yogurts, St Moret fromage frais and delicacies of the moment: crêpes or cake of the day, for example.

Many extras are available: savory breakfast on request (with eggs, cheese and ham) at an extra charge of €10 per person, delicious aperitif boards with local products such as black tapenade and Var sausage, seafood platters, champagnes, wines, fruit juices, floral arrangements to prepare a surprise, chocolates, special decorations and massages.

If required, there's a laundry service: your clothes are washed, ironed and returned to your room. It's very practical, and rare enough to be worth mentioning!

Céline pays great attention to environmental impact. A few examples: the household products used are biodegradable and natural, local producers are widely favored, single-use plastic is greatly reduced and you can recharge your electric car free of charge thanks to an on-site socket.

Just a stone's throw from the Mediterranean Sea

La Bastide du Rocher located in the South of France, a 45-minute drive from Nice Airport. The Mediterranean Sea is just 15 minutes away, including Saint-Tropez and Cannes.

Nearby, the medieval village of Roquebrune-sur-Argens boasts a rich historical heritage as well as a magnificent rock formation: a 372-meter-high red sandstone cliff that towers over the valley and is visible from afar.

Nestled between hills and pine forests, Callas charmed us with its authenticity and peaceful atmosphere. This small Provencal village offers a splendid view over the surrounding valley, and seduces with its narrow streets, ancient fountains and local market full of flavors. It's the ideal place to stroll and sample local produce.

During your stay, you can book a private sea trip from Saint-Raphaël with a skipper. He or she will take you to discover unique places, whether for half a day, a full day or during sunset.

Here are a few recommended restaurants in the area:

- Les Jardins de l'Orangeraie: market-fresh menu
- Les Templiers: in the village of Roquebrune, a very good Moroccan restaurant
- Ma Cantine: 8 minutes from La Bastide, a charming restaurant offering authentic cuisine
- La Grotte: bistronomic restaurant, crazy charm, very atypical
