ST. TROPEZ’ CHICEST WELLNESS RETREAT, LILY OF THE VALLEY, UNVEILS TWO BRAND NEW, EXCLUSIVE-USE VILLAS FOR SUMMER 2025
April 3rdFRANCE

This summer, Lily of the Valley, the French Riviera’s most stylish year-round wellness destination, is set to unveil two brand-new, exclusive-use villas: Les Pins and Les Oliviers. Launching in time for the peak season, these ultra-private, fully staffed retreats, designed by renowned French architect Charles Zana, sit harmoniously within two hectares of centuries-old olive trees and stone pines, blending into their surroundings. A destination for those seeking a bespoke, results-driven experience, Lily of the Valley specialises in expertly curated programmes for long-lasting wellbeing. Featuring an expansive 2,000 m² spa and fitness space, nutrient-rich Mediterranean cuisine, and a private beach on the Plage de Gigaro, it sets a new standard for year-round wellness on the Riviera.
True to his signature style, Zana has crafted spaces that evolve naturally with the seasons, combining refined design with a sense of home. His artistic approach balances sleek lines with sculptural forms and a rich yet understated palette. Light and volume shape the interiors, while natural materials echo the Mediterranean landscape, bringing the outside in, where sun-dappled gardens in summer transition into serene retreats in winter.
Perched above Plage de Gigaro, Les Pins takes its name from the pine forest it overlooks, offering direct beach access. Spanning 438 m², it accommodates up to 10 guests across five suites and features a state-of-the-art kitchen, private fitness room, steam room, and semi-Olympic outdoor pool. While Les Oliviers, meaning Olive Grove, extends across 504 m², also sleeping 10 guests in five suites, making both ideal retreats for entertaining and relaxation.
For those seeking a private sanctuary, both villas offer exceptional service, including a dedicated villa manager, a private chef curating bespoke menus, and daily coaching sessions ranging from high-energy workouts to mindful meditations. Guests also have access to Dr Jacques Fricker’s Shape Club, home to expert-led wellness programmes such as Better Ageing, Sport, Detox, and Weight Management.
A trailblazer in the Mediterranean wellness scene, Lily of the Valley’s new villas further cement its status as the ultimate year-round retreat for stylish, health-conscious travellers and multi-generational families seeking a stylish, restorative escape.
