2022-05-14T14:08:49.424Z


The lapping of water from the fountains, the scent of the hills, the golden light, the games of pétanque, the wines of the south and the flavors of the sun... Our best addresses for refined holidays, marked by gentleness and authenticity.


A collection of lovely houses for rent

An artist's studio in the Luberon, a village house in Saumane in the Vaucluse mountains, a cabin in the creeks (soon)... The Enamoura collection of holiday homes offers five exceptional addresses in Provence where you can taste the Mediterranean art of living, aperitif under the arbor garlanded with lanterns or bathing under the grazing lights of the evening.

A chiseled decoration, vintage or self-published antique furniture and a few contemporary pieces, sensually dress these places of character with exposed stone or whitewashed walls.

Our favorite ?

It's hard to choose between a 10th century chapel clinging to the rock of Saignon with a stone-cut swimming pool and a stunning 360° view of the Luberon and Mont Ventoux,

and a townhouse with pond (photo) in the vibrant Vauban district of Marseille.

We also like the guide to Provence by Magali Avignon, the founder of Enamoura.

Are you shooting, or are you pointing?

 Escaped from the bowling alley, these words full of sunshine already embody this reinvented "village".

In Bonnieux, the Hotel Capelongue – Beaumier reopens on May 28 after long renovation work carried out by the architecture firm JAUNE with the help of the Atelier Saint-Lazare (ex-be-poles).

Life flows around the "central square" while drinking a lemonade or reading the news of the day, bought at the bookstore, and lazing by the edge of one of the two swimming pools, lulled by the song of the cicadas.

As for the 37 rooms and suites, they are now dressed in light wood and a gradation of red and pink tones evoking the earth.

In the scent of lavender and pine, we will choose the activities of the day: walks (around botany, on a pony, on an electric bicycle, etc.), road bike racing, climbing, trail running,
