The Address Cassis

The Address Cassis

, 30 Avenue Jules Ferry, Cassis.

From the moment you climb the villa’s front steps and pass through its elegant façade you will find an atmosphere of understated luxury at The Address Cassis.

The recent renovations have retained the charm of a mid-20th century South-of-France villa and overlaid it with some elegant modern touches. The deck, garden and swimming pool are an absolute delight, with a verdant riot of Mediterranean trees and shrubs surrounding a terrace packed full of contemporary style and chic. This is a place to unwind in comfort.

Breakfast at the Address is a moment of indulgence, served on the terrace or in the conservatory. Then three times a week there’s a magnificent 4 course dinner available (by prior reservation). The menu adjusts to the season and the market, always involving organic produce from the land and exceptional fish and seafood from the Mediterranean

There are just two junior suites and one suite, all with a king-size bed dressed with fine linen and monogrammed pillows. Each one has a private terrace with sea view, a 4K television, quiet soothing decor and a host of facilities to meet every modern demand; super-quiet air-conditioning, high-speed wi-fi, minibar, tea and coffee-making, a safe, hair-dryer and a luxurious bathroom with a walk-in shower.

The village of Cassis is built like an amphitheatre placed between two headlands and dropping down to the beaches and the marina. Boat charter is available in the marina, for fishing, diving or just pottering along the coast to visit the breathtaking little coves and creeks. On shore, there are vineyards to be visited, golf to be played, a casino to lose your money in, and even the famous Paul Ricard grand prix racing circuit. The concierge service can organise your trips and even pick you up from the airport or station in their emission-free electric BMW.
