Villa Le Ble - Villa for 21 people in Saint-Raphaël

This palatial beach-side villa in the French Riviera has the amenities of a private resort, yet it’s all your own. Tourist-free beaches are a short walk from your Indian-inspired 1880s mansion, restored to the height of elegance. A chef’s services is available on request, so you’ll not have to take your eyes off the Mediterranean sea stretching out before you. A magnificent seafront hotel with a gourmet restaurant is located next to Villa Le Ble and guests will have access to all its luxury facilities. Ask to arrange whatever your heart desires: spa services, massage, yoga lessons, or personal training on-site. There are endless relaxing venues at this sprawling holiday villa; take your pick of hot tubs (indoor or out) or two heated swimming pools. Rest upon canopied loungers by the garden pool, drinking in the fragrance of the flowers and citrus trees. Stroll out on the wide terrace overlooking the sea, and imagine what creatures live beneath the surface. Maybe you’ll even meet them; snorkelling and boating equipment stands ready to help you commune with the sea. Located in the tiny town of Boulouris (halfway between Cannes and Saint-Tropez), this area is a well-kept secret. You'll not encounter many tourists, yet there are restaurants and bars to keep you entertained. For an adventurous hike go to Estérel Massif, an impressive seaside volcanic mountain range nearby.
