Domaine Des Carmes & Spa

구석구석 잘 관리되고 아름다운 숙소입니다. 호스트인 파스칼의 따뜻한 환대에 매우 감사하며 편안하게 머물 수 있었습니다. 아름다운 식당에 정성스럽게 마련된 조식과 지역 와인과 간단한 안주를 곁들인 해피아워는 매우 즐거운 경험이었습니다.

Beautiful and expansive property in a park-like setting, which the hosts upgraded with various activities available (pool, workout and exercise area, sauna, etc). Our room was large and comfortable, a bit of a hike up two flights of stairs. Breakfast was good, albeit the same every day, but the croissants, fresh bread, yogurt, fresh preserves and coffee were very good. Too much cannot be said of our hosts Pascal and Mina, who were super helpful and exuberant. They provided great restaurant suggestions in nearby L' Ilse sur la Sorgue, which had a large choice of excellent restaurants.

We had the most wonderful stay enjoying the stunning setting and amenities and being spoiled by our incredible host Pascal whose energy and genuine concern for his guests cannot be overstated. Our room in the top tower was spacious and comfortable with a stunning view of the pool and grounds and a great shower. Our sons were day campers at the Bosquier football academy in Cavaillon so we were up early, and Pascal was there to serve us a delicious breakfast at 7:30 every day. The croissants are cooked right there (the best we had in France) and there was fruit, bread, granola, yogurt as well as ham and cheese upon request. And excellent coffee! As others have mentioned the 7-8 pm wine hour is a real treat, and Pascal makes sure every glass is full with terrific wine and everyone feels welcome. The pool is a great size, crystal clear and refreshing with lots of comfortable seats and umbrellas for shade, and the outdoor gym and ping pong were great options for a quick workout or an evening match. We paid the small fee to use the hot tub which is also sparkling clean and therapeutic for legs tired out from football. You do need a car, but close-by are many great options for lunch or dinner. We never timed a meal in quaint Le Thor right (wish we had - it looked so lovely!) but we loved Isla la Sorgue and Fontaine de Vaucluse where we took a fun and memorable trip in a kayak down the Sorgue. In addition to Pascal, the maid service was terrific, and Marion who we met on our last day was also very kind. Pascal and his team work incredibly hard to ensure guests have a relaxing and memorable stay, and these “USA people” certainly did. Thank you Pascal!
