Combining the independence of a holiday home with all the conveniences of a five-star hotel, this sprawling villa guarantees a stay to remember. A dedicated butler service is on hand to take care of any requests, and thanks to two living areas and kitchens, there is more than enough space for a family or group of friends to settle in. When you’re ready to seriously relax, there’s a hammam at your disposal. Choose to sip your complimentary welcome champagne by one of the heated pools before heading into nearby Cassis for a stroll by the port.

Home truths:
*Your host provides a complimentary a la carte breakfast each morning, a private butler service, housekeeping, transfers from the airport or train station and access to a local spa.
*Parking for up to two cars is available on the premises.
*While some of the bedrooms and bathrooms aren’t photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
