Less than 15 minutes by foot from the picturesque harbor of Cassis, Domaine de Cassis is one of the largest and most prestigious properties on the French Riviera. With 60 hectares under Cap Canaille in the Calanques National Park, this luxury villa offers breathtaking views of the Mediterranean. Formerly a hotel, which welcomed Virginia Woolf and Winston Churchill, this 600m2 mansion was entirely renovated in 2017 to combine modernity and comfort. The huge terrace of 400m2 overlooks a beautiful beach with turquoise waters, accessible on foot by a private path in 5 minutes. The property welcomes all year-long guests for holiday rentals, private or corporate events and well-being retreats.
We can organise tailor-made events for companies in an exceptional setting: board of directors, corporate retreat, team building, client presentation, photo or film shoot...
