  • About
From Vaison-la-Romaine to Les Baux-de-Provence, St.-Tropez, and Cap d’Antibes, we adore the South of France, the Midi. We love the very fragrance that is in the air—of fields of flowers and herbs mingling with olive trees and the salty breeze from the sea.

We glory in the sun’s light—unlike anywhere else—that makes colors dazzle us at all times of the day. We love the cafés on every corner, baking at Tahiti Beach, or watching the sun set on the white rocks in Les Baux-de-Provence. We love to eat lotte at the little restaurants at the very edge of the Mediterranean, drink Pastis on the terrace at the Carlton, have chocolate soufflé at the Hôtel de Paris, and Christmas Eve at La Colombe d’Or. It’s all pure bliss.
