CHATEAU MARGUI

Almost equidistant between the cafés, art galleries, and tree-lined boulevards of Aix-en-Provence, and the sparkling waters and lively beach clubs of St Tropez, lies the exceptional Château Margüi — an 18-bedroom and suite estate.

The site’s origins trace back to the pre-Roman era, when its natural springs provided irrigation for crops and livestock. Today, the estate’s 115 hectares are dedicated to award-winning vineyards, indigenous oak woodland, and shimmering olive groves.

At the heart of the estate sits the château itself. Expertly renovated and furnished to world-class standards, accommodation is spread across the main house — the Bastide — along with an adjacent Moulin and Bergerie. Suites feature king beds, sitting rooms, in-room bars, fireplaces, state-of-the-art entertainment systems, and Wi-Fi. An entertainment hub offers a games room complete with pool table, shuffleboard, and a poker table, while an 18-seat cinema in the basement is perfect for enjoying classic and new-release films alike.

Outdoors, the pool house features a fully equipped gym, beauty salon, and an outdoor heated swimming pool with flow lane. Beyond this, an outdoor tennis court sits alongside a dedicated yoga and Pilates studio.

A full team of staff, including an on-site concierge and gourmet-standard chef, ensures every detail of your stay is taken care of.

Celebrate in style: Toast your celebrations while enjoying delicious cuisine prepared by your private chef, before a lively evening in the entertainment hub or cinema. With 18 bedrooms and suites, groups of family or friends will find no shortage of ways to celebrate here.

Why we like it: The epitome of a beautifully renovated château and gardens, offering stunning interiors, luxurious amenities, and a full staff and chef to elevate every moment of your Provençal experience.
