Provençal Riad

Not far from the beach in Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer, this eccentric villa is a hidden gem. One glance at the Moroccan-inspired decor, and you'll see that this isn't a traditional Provençal homestead – though the views of the hills are about as romantic as they get. Outside, two terraces offer wonderful spots for alfresco dining, there's a boules court for afternoon games, and a private pool ideal for a quick dip before venturing out. Speaking of adventures, the charming port town of Cassis is within easy reach. Les Lecques, La Madrague, and the rest of the beaches in the Côte d'Azur are also within driving distance.
