Provence
Côte d ’ Azur
The Côte d ’ Azur has a magnetic attraction for the visitor from northern Europe . Noted for its beautiful climate , sandy beaches , chic resorts and as home to the rich and famous , it never ceases to appeal all year round , whether for a short break out of season or for a long , lazy summer holiday . We believe we are offering you hotels that are either slightly tucked away from the main thoroughfares or that have irresistible charm , so that they act as a haven to retreat to after experiencing the vibrant resorts , the beaches , the historic towns , and artistic villages . With its bright blue skies , shimmering heat , exotic palms , flower-scented air , open-air cafés , and art galleries , the atmosphere evokes an unmistakeable joie de vivre . Ideal for long summer stays or short breaks throughout the year .
“ The Côte d ’ Azur has an irresistible magic - any stay here , especially out of season , is a real tonic ”
