When describing the experience at Domaine de Canaille, one has to leverage some big gun vocabulary: spectacular, magnificent, stunning, once in a lifetime. When my friends and I arrived to the gigantic patio overlooking the sea and Calanques, I literally felt that I’d been parachuted into a James Bond movie. This is an extraordinary property with a rich history and unmatched view in the South of France. The main house sleeps a large group comfortably and there is an extra annex of suites to accommodate larger parties. We relished the experience of working with local Chef Jeremy for the catering and enjoyed the friendly and accommodating team of staff. There is great access to the beach below (although a hike), and Cassis is an easy 15 minute walk away. The orangery was perfect for morning yoga and games, and there is also a boules court and secluded hammock for napping. The decor is brilliantly designed, modern and elegant but completely comfortable and approachable. Marie was extremely helpful in creating all the arrangements and made great recommendations to ensure a lovely stay for our guests and to suggest activities. Our stay was truly a once in a lifetime experience at this magnificent home.

Our family enjoyed our stay. The house is obviously in a jaw dropping position. Dinners on the terrace served by Jeremy the chef were the highlight. A few small things may need tweaking, but generally an exceptional residence and stay.

The views from this villa are breathtaking. The house is just as beautiful as the pictures. Marie is prompt in communications throughout. We loved the meals prepared by Chef Jeremy. Definitely will consider coming back to this lovely place.
