Your Guide to Provence Villas

Rooted in Roman foundations and shaped by centuries of village life, Provence blends deep history with a way of living that still revolves around markets, food, and time spent outdoors. It’s a region that rewards slowing down, where daily life unfolds between sunlit terraces, winding country roads, and long meals that stretch into the evening.

Provence is especially well suited to villa stays. Space, privacy, and outdoor living are part of the culture here, whether that means a farmhouse surrounded by vineyards or a restored bastide just outside a lively town. Days tend to follow an easy rhythm: market mornings, relaxed afternoons by the pool, then dinners back at the villa or in a nearby village.

Where to stay depends on how you want to experience Provence:

  • Saint-Rémy-de-Provence is ideal if you want a walkable village feel paired with countryside scenery and easy access to the Alpilles.
  • Aix-en-Provence works well as a cultural base, with museums, cafés, and straightforward day trips across the region.
  • The Luberon is best for travelers drawn to hilltop villages, vineyard views, and a slower, scenery-first pace.
  • Avignon appeals to those who want major historical sites, a lively center, and strong transport connections.
  • Cassis is a natural fit if you want to pair Provençal countryside with coastal scenery, boat days, and calanques.

Renting a luxury villa in Provence is straightforward with Rental Escapes. Once you share your dates and group size, your Villa Specialist identifies the best available options. From there, your Concierge handles the details, from airport transfers and private drivers to chef service, guided tours, winery visits, and relaxed day trips that keep the focus on enjoying the region.

Provence Luxury Villas

Provence villas come in a range of classic regional styles, from traditional mas farmhouses to restored bastides and châteaux. What they share is a strong connection to their surroundings, with outdoor spaces designed for dining, swimming, and long afternoons in the sun.

At the villa level, you can expect thoughtful amenities like private pools, landscaped gardens, and interiors that balance Provençal character with modern comfort. These homes are designed for slow, comfortable living rather than formality.

Beyond the villa itself, your Concierge manages the practical details that make exploring Provence feel effortless. From airport transfers and private drivers to guided tours, winery visits, and well-paced day trips, everything is arranged so your time stays focused on enjoying the region.

St Remy de Provence Villas

Set at the foot of the Alpilles, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence is one of the region’s most appealing bases. It combines a lively village center with surrounding countryside, making it easy to walk to markets, cafés, and galleries while still feeling immersed in Provençal landscapes. Villas here tend to balance charm and convenience, with generous outdoor space and quick access to some of the most scenic drives in Provence. They include:

Villa Serenite: A traditional 19th-century mas just 2 KM from the center of the village, Villa Serenite leans into Provençal charm. Expect local materials, artisanal furniture, lavender on the grounds, a fireplace, a large heated pool, and views of the Alpilles hills.

Mas d’Eyragues: A former farmhouse renovated into an easy family villa, with a heated pool, Pétanque court, tennis half-court, foosball, fitness room, and space that works well for kids.
