The Best Spa Hotels in Provence, France
Lavender fields and olive groves are an idyllic setting for a Provençal spa retreat. Discover the finest places to stay in southeast France for proper pampering – all bookable with Culture Trip.
Provence is nature wearing her prettiest clothes to paraphrase author Peter Mayle. Its landscapes are renowned, its produce beloved and its dreamy way of life is a thing of envy. Where better to book a spa retreat? From hilltop infinity pools to luxury floatation beds, here’s our pick of the top spa hotels in Provence.
1. Kube Hotel Saint-Tropez
Spa Hotel
Given its proximity to the Mediterranean – being a hot stone’s throw from Saint Tropez’s Pearl Beach – it’s apt that the spa treatments here centre around algae and marine extracts. Massage options here include Balinese and deep tissue, while the signature facial detox and exfoliating body wrap is a must-book. If the glamour of the French Riviera tempts you for a makeover, the salon here is endorsed by famous hairdresser Franck Provost.
2. Château de Valmer
Spa Hotel
A stay at Château de Valmer comes with a private beach, just 300m (984ft) away. Access to the spa and wellness centre is also included with a well-equipped gym, in case you want to workout before your Decléor aromatherapy massage. Warm up in the Finnish-style sauna on colder days. The organic garden is a vegetarian’s dream; indulge in a luxury three-course, meat-free menu at Alexandre Fabris’ La Palmeraie restaurant.
4. Hôtel Les Terrasses D'Eze
Spa Hotel
This four-star hotel occupies a prime hilltop location overlooking the medieval village of Eze, sandwiched between Nice and Monaco. Key highlights include the outdoor infinity pool which blends seamlessly with the Mediterranean Sea. Inside, hop between the sauna, whirlpool and Himalayan salt room. Don’t miss a session in the floatation tank, designed to help you destress and drift off into a meditative state.
5. Hôtel Le Couvent des Minimes, Mane
Hotel
6. Royal Antibes
Spa Hotel, Luxury
Expect silver screen opulence at this luxury 64-room hotel in Antibes, a 20-minute drive east of Cannes. The two-bedroom royal suite is the stand-out pick; soak up the sea view from the bubbling hot tub on the terrace. Wellness passes give you all-day access to the sauna, hammam and jacuzzi, plus a beachside lunch, sun lounger and a 50-minute massage, all included.
7. Hotel & Spa Des Gorges Du Verdon
Spa Hotel
If your budget allows, book the Olive suite at this high altitude spa hotel in the Verdon Grand Canyon. Its two balconies and cinema screen-style windows mean you’ll never go looking for the TV remote – the glistening Verdon river nearby cuts through a dramatic limestone gorge. If you’re inspired to explore further, local excursions include kayaking, canyoning and paragliding. Afterwards, kick back in the jacuzzi and enjoy the view.
8. Baumanière Les Baux de Provence
Spa Hotel
Don’t come here without making a reservation at the famous Oustau de Baumanière restaurant first. Hotel owner and renowned French chef Jean-André Charial has masterminded a spellbinding menu that comes with the prestige of three Michelin stars. The wine cellar is just as spectacular, boasting more than 50,000 bottles. Over in the spa, there’s a sensory pool and herbal tea room, plus restorative oil treatments using local olives.

Independent Hotel, Bed and Breakfast
