Your Guide to Luxury Villas in Luberon

With rich lavender fields, stone farmhouses, and hilltop villages, the Luberon is easily one of Provence’s most poetic destinations. It’s elegant, lived-in, and surrounded by stunning landscapes. Luxury villas in Luberon let you experience the magic of this destination first hand, with stays that are as historic and iconic as the region itself.

The Luberon has been inhabited since prehistoric times. From Roman ruins to medieval abbeys and fortified hilltop villages, the Luberon’s history is deeply felt throughout the region. From the 17th century on, Luberon maintained a quiet, rural rhythm that it largely keeps to this day.
