About Le Lavandou & Cavaliere
With prevailing sun and nearby fields of lavender, our luxury villas in Le Lavandou and Cavaliere are constantly awash with a mix of flowering scents carried on the clean ocean air. Le Lavandou’s relative seclusion from the French Riviera’s larger resorts means it is popular, but not overrun with tourism.
The local marina has grown into a major hub for international yachts, while the active harbour side retains Le Lavandou’s roots with a regular fish market. Stop here to pick up the daily catch, returning to your villa to cook up a succulent seafood spread on a blazing summer barbecue.
For a dose of culture, we’ll arrange a guided tour with a professional expert who can help you discover the inspiration behind iconic Neo-Impressionist paintings of the region. With its crystal-clear waters, Le Lavandou is also a popular destination for scuba divers seeking the beauty of the French life under the sea.
A scenic drive from Le Lavandou leads to the resort of Cavaliere. This idyllic seaside haven is perfect for a day of beach activities. Watersports available include water skiing, wind surfing and motor boating. A little further afield is La Croix Valmer which has eight main beaches to choose from. In fact, wherever you visit from your villa, you’ll be positively spoilt for choice in the Cote d’Azur.
