Exclusive Luxury Villas & Château Rentals in Provence

Provence is the France of the imagination made real. Lavender fields rolling towards limestone hills, olive groves shimmering in summer heat, ochre villages perched above patchwork vineyards and markets piled with tomatoes, tapenade and herbes de Provence. Excellence Luxury Villas offers an outstanding collection of private villa, mas and farmhouse rentals across the region — from the Luberon and Alpilles to Avignon, Aix-en-Provence and the Côte d'Azur hinterland.

From the hilltop villages of Gordes, Roussillon, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence and Bonnieux to the Luberon Valley and Alpilles mountains, Provence rewards exploration at every scale. The Côte d'Azur coastline remains within easy reach for days at the beach, while the vineyards of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Luberon AOC and Bandol provide some of the most memorable wine experiences in France. Guests staying in our Provence collection enjoy artisan markets, vineyard tours and seasonal festivals — each stay providing privacy, world-class comfort and proximity to the historic towns that have inspired artists and writers for centuries.

Intimate villas for couples, honeymoons and rejuvenating retreats

For couples seeking romantic escapes or wellness retreats, Provence offers intimate mas and farmhouses with private terraces, heated pools, spa amenities and panoramic countryside views across lavender fields and vine rows. Guests can enjoy sunset dinners prepared by a private chef using produce from the morning market, yoga sessions on a hilltop terrace at dawn, vineyard picnics at golden hour and in-villa massage treatments arranged by our concierge at 24 hours' notice.

Staying in a romantic luxury villa in Provence with private pool guarantees the tranquillity and indulgence that makes this one of the world's finest honeymoon and anniversary destinations. Our Excellence Luxury Villas concierge curates every experience — from securing the finest table at a hillside restaurant to arranging a private guided visit to a perfumery in Grasse, a sunset truffle walk in the Luberon or a private concert in a medieval wine cellar. The lavender peak in mid-July, the rosé harvest in August and the golden October light all offer their own particular pleasures, and our team tailors itineraries to whatever time of year you choose to visit.

Private vineyard tours, Provençal markets and chef dinners under the stars

Provence is one of France's finest culinary regions and among the world's most rewarding for wine lovers. Our concierge arranges private tastings at celebrated domaines across the Côtes du Rhône, Luberon AOC, Bandol and Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellations. Markets in Apt, L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, Saint-Rémy and Aix provide extraordinary local produce — figs, melons, truffles in season, anchoïade, tapenade — that our vetted private chefs transform into bespoke dining experiences at your villa.

The cultural landscape of Provence is equally rich. The Pont du Gard Roman aqueduct, the Palais des Papes in Avignon, the ancient amphitheatre of Orange and the Camargue wetlands with their flamingos and white horses are all within easy reach of our villa portfolio. Guests staying with Excellence Luxury Villas in Provence gain not just a property but a gateway to one of the most civilised landscapes on earth — a region that has been producing exceptional food, wine and art for over two thousand years and shows no sign of stopping.

Why Excellence Luxury Villas for Provence?

Unrivalled Provence knowledge

Our team has spent years building relationships with the finest villa owners, domaine managers and local suppliers across Provence. We know the Luberon villages that are worth the detour and those that are better avoided in August. We know which private pools face east for the morning light and which face west for sunset aperitifs. We know the restaurant in Bonnieux that has no website but requires a reservation two weeks in advance. This knowledge is what we offer alongside the properties themselves.

Handpicked for quality, not volume

Our Provence collection is deliberately curated rather than comprehensively listed. Every mas, farmhouse and hilltop bastide in our portfolio has been personally visited and assessed. We look at the pool, the kitchen, the condition of the mattresses, the quality of the WiFi and the character of the owner. We only list properties we would personally be happy to stay in — which means the properties we list are, without exception, genuinely excellent.

Private chef and concierge excellence

Provence is a region where food is taken seriously, and so are we. Our private chef service draws on a network of professionals who combine classical French training with deep knowledge of Provençal produce and technique. A private chef dinner in the courtyard of a Luberon mas, with local wine and produce from the morning market, is among the finest meals many of our guests have ever eaten — and it happens in the privacy of your own villa, at a time that suits you, without a booking, a bill or a taxi home.

Seamless from enquiry to departure

From the moment you contact us to the moment you leave your Provence villa, our team handles every practical detail. Airport transfers, restaurant reservations, vineyard tours, market introductions, bicycle hire, babysitting, flower delivery, grocery pre-stocking — nothing is too small or too last-minute. We have been doing this since 2008 and our guests return because the experience is genuinely seamless.
