LA VILLA MAURESQUE Luxe

There's a lot of very good things about this hotel including the stunning location, beautiful buildings, very peaceful gardens & swimming pools plus a high quality restaurant. It is easy to see why it is so popular with guests. We were initially put in a room above the restaurant building and it immediately became obvious that this was not the quiet room that I had requested because of the very noisy kitchen fan, the restaurant telephone and the general noise of people moving around below in the restaurant area. To their credit the hotel immediately offered us an alternative room in the other building which was much quieter (Kandinsky). Kandinsky is a good size with a decent shower room and a nice terrace bordering one of the pools. Breakfast was a typical French affair with good quality food but if I'm honest it became a bit repetitive after a week as very little changed except the type of tart that was offered. There is also no bar area after 19.00 which is strange for a 5* establishment. A drink service is on demand but it's not quite the same. Overall we had a very enjoyable week at the Villa and would visit in the future but I'm not sure I would go back again for such a long stay without a car because of it's location. The on site restaurant is very good but limited in choice and expensive. Locally there are a couple of decent places to eat but otherwise it's a good 45 minute walk to St Raphael. Taxis are an option but then it's another 30-40€ on top of your meal. Finally we had one another issue with the restaurant. We had wanted to dine on our first evening but we're told it was booked for a private function which is fine if alternative arrangements are then made for guests. There is a garden bar which does food until 19.00 – why that could not be extended until later is beyond me and I think it was poor not to offer guests an alternative option.

There is only one word to describe our wedding day - perfect. From the moment of the bride’s preparations to the evening party everything was just as we had hoped, and more. The setting and the rooms are truly beautiful. The staff was smiling and tactful, Manon and Louise went beyond themselves reassuring us during the pre-wedding meetings and on the day. Special mention goes to the cooking chef – what a talent! Everybody’s still talking about his “oeuf parfait” which was a part of our wedding menu. All accompanied by an excellent wine choice. Words can’t express how grateful we are for being able to have our wedding reception at Villa Mauresque. Thank you!

What a wonderful hotel. We stayed for 4 nights as part of our 25th anniversary celebrations. From the moment I started to contact the hotel by email they could not have been more helpful and once we arrived we found all staff to be really attentive and helpful. The hotel is so well kept with beautiful gardens and stunning views of the sea from almost every angle. The view in particular when eating breakfast was breathtaking and added to the very enjoyable long leisurely breakfasts we enjoyed. It was great to be able to cool down in he pool also overlooking the sea. Our room was excellent, great shower, with separate bedroom, sitting room and terrace for soaking up the sun. A great location for exploring this amazing coast line, will hopefully return again as we were both mesmerised by Villa Mauresque, a big thank you to you all...

A wonderful places which has had much history...actually the lady I came with there had come in her childhood when it was still a private demeure. Quiet, efficient, very nice metal work details. Particularly recommend.

A high-class luxurious hotel in beautiful surroundings, yet relaxed and peaceful. The staff is service-minded and discrete, and we had excellent dinners at the restaurant. Thank you so much La Villa Mauresque!
