BASTIDE SAINT ANTOINE - RELAIS & CHATEAUX in Grasse, Provence

The hotel's outdoor pool sits at the heart of a leafy park with over 1,400 thousand-year-old olive trees. Guests can play petanque on the traditional bowls ground or use the fitness suite. The property also offers a private car park with charging stations, a 24-hour reception, and a seminar space for up to 220 people.

The 16 rooms and suites are named after picturesque villages in the Grasse region and come in two styles: traditional Provençal elegance or contemporary sophistication. Some suites include a private jacuzzi on the terrace, a fireplace, and panoramic views of the hinterland and the Bay of Cannes. The largest apartment spans 110 m2 with a 55 m2 terrace and a 360° view.

Chef Jacques Chibois, a Chevalier de l'Ordre du Mérite, leads the restaurant that holds Gault & Millau 'toques' and is part of the Grandes Tables du Monde. The wine cellar boasts 1,000 varieties across 25,000 bottles, with a focus on Provence and international selections. Guests can dine on the terrace amid potted orange and lemon trees, with seasonal dishes like frozen garden citrus with Kristal caviar.

The hotel is 15 minutes from Cannes and a short walk from the medieval town of Grasse, the world capital of perfume. Guests can visit perfume houses Fragonard, Galimard, and Molinard, or create their own fragrance in a workshop. The Pays de Grasse offers golf at four courses via the Golf Pass, plus hiking, cycling, and nautical sports on the coast.
