Villa Calabrun
in Les Alpilles, France

Tucked beneath the dramatic limestone cliffs of Les Baux-de-Provence, Villa Calabrun is an exceptional Provençal retreat where architecture, nature and craftsmanship exist in perfect harmony. Originally a historic shepherd’s shelter carved directly into the rock, this extraordinary property has been meticulously restored into a refined private residence that honours its raw origins while delivering a discreet, contemporary luxury experience.

Surrounded by 2,700 m² of landscaped gardens and set across 475 m² of interiors, the villa unfolds over multiple levels, blending stone, brushed plaster, antique wood and bespoke artisanal finishes. The heart of the home is a spectacular living room set beneath natural rock formations, creating a dramatic yet intimate atmosphere. Floor-to-ceiling openings connect seamlessly to the garden, terraces and outdoor dining spaces, allowing the Alpilles landscape to become part of everyday life.

Villa Calabrun accommodates up to 10 guests across five elegant en-suite bedrooms, including two exceptional master suites built directly under the rock. Each bedroom is air-conditioned and designed as a private sanctuary, featuring king-size beds, refined bathrooms and calming natural tones. Wellness is central to the experience, with both heated indoor and outdoor saltwater pools, a spa carved into the stone, sauna, and relaxation areas that invite year-round enjoyment.

A fully equipped kitchen with Lacanche stove opens onto al fresco dining spaces and a Japanese-style BBQ, ideal for long, convivial meals. From the villa, guests can step directly onto hiking and cycling paths through the Alpilles, while nearby villages, Michelin-starred dining, golf courses and cultural landmarks are just minutes away.

With daily breakfast, housekeeping, concierge services and a dedicated house manager, Villa Calabrun offers the comfort of a boutique hotel within the privacy of a remarkable Provençal hideaway.
