Lily of the Valley

Wellness & Luxe on the French Riviera

Wellness and luxury are the terms Lily of the Valley uses to describe itself. Located in La Croix-Valmer, within the Cap Lardier estate on the Côte d'Azur, the hotel offers its guests a nurturing environment in which to pursue sports and wellness goals, accompanied by a team of experts. Whether you are staying at Lily of the Valley for a short break or a longer getaway, you will be charmed by the architecture of the place. In imagining Lily, Philippe Starck designed a hotel that does not impose itself on nature, but adapts to it. Inspired by the hanging gardens of Babylon, the architecture of Provençal abbeys and the design of Californian villas, the creator designed 44 rooms and suites with comfort, culture and generosity. In this park with its lush vegetation, nature reasserts its rights over mineral buildings that seem to have been there forever. On the culinary front, 3 restaurants make up the hotel's gastronomic palette: Du Potager à l'Assiette, where you can enjoy local, healthy cuisine; the Restaurant Vista, whose Mediterranean menu is accompanied by a sea view; and Le Club House, where light meals can be enjoyed comfortably seated on a flowery sofa.
