The Château Chic can accomodate up to 20 peoople. Staying at the Château means enjoying all the comforts of a Provençal residence.
Château Chic covers 200 hectares, 120 hectares of which are olive trees and 20 hectares of vines. The olive orchards and vines are classified as Protected Designation of Origin. From the cultivation of the fruit, olives and grapes, to the sale of our bottles, sprays and boxes, each step is carried out according to the strict specifications . Grapes and olives are cultivated and worked on the estate, respecting organic agriculture and following exclusively manual and mechanical manufacturing processes, without the use of chemicals.
Your first glimpse of the Château will come at the end of its long ancient pines alley. There it is, waiting, standing immaculately dressed in white stone from Les Baux-de-Provence.
Château Chic , more than a luxury hotel Make a wish, and we’ll do all we can to make it come true. Whether you dream of an intimate wedding, a fairy tale celebration, a sumptuous reception, an unforgettably unique honeymoon or a private family holiday cocooned a world away from the humdrum glitz of the everyday, or a special summit with colleagues and clients. ‘‘Luxury is exquisite, exclusive and unapologetically slow, created for all those who appreciate, and expect nothing less’’. Everything is possible within the walls of this privately-owned Provençal Château that is so much more than a luxury hotel. A magnificent family home since 1731, Château Chic is unique: a place where the joie de vivre of day-to-day life plays out across the château’s grand interiors (1.500 m²), set among 500 spell-binding acres of vines, olive groves, woods and parkland
