2 Best Hotels in Ménerbes, Provence

A Provençal dream come true, this exclusive property—part of the Maisons et Hôtels Sibuet collection—is amid a 57-acre vineyard and has rustic-chic common areas and guest quarters in a restored stone farmstead. Some rooms have private terraces, others a working fireplace; all are beautifully and eclectically decorated with antiques and original artwork. On-site amenities include a spa, a swimming pool, and a dining room where the food is so good that locals come from miles around for lunch, dinner, or afternoon tea. You can take in beautiful views from the terrace, indulge in a wine tasting, and explore bucolic paths on foot or by e-bike.

It took four years for the two delightful owners, one a fifth-generation antiques dealer, to transform this 18th-century bastide amid farmland and vineyards into a guesthouse of rare elegance and taste. Whichever of the spacious suites you choose, you’ll be treated to museum-worthy antiques and artworks, luxury linens, comfortable contemporary furniture, and all the considerate touches that make you feel at home (the home of your dreams, that is). The private guesthouse next to the bastide is a masterpiece of contemporary design, mixing modern and classical artworks and antiques in the beautiful sleeping and sitting areas. The estate lies on three private acres of manicured gardens, orchards, and olive groves, with a pool and plenty of lovely spots to relax under the shade of ancient trees and take in breathtaking views of Ménerbes.
