Apart Hotel on the Giens Peninsula in the Var
On the Giens Peninsula, facing Porquerolles and the Îles d’Or, Résidence du Provençal invites you to escape, explore, and unwind in the heart of the Var region.
Nestled on a rocky promontory in a lush pine forest overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, it offers 23 serviced apartments for tailor-made stays in Giens.
The Residence of a 4-Star Hotel
A little sister to the 4-star hotel Le Provençal, just 400 meters away, the Residence shares its DNA and its history.
Here, the art of living well has been passed down through three generations, beginning in 1951 with Marius Michel, a native of the Var region who became head chef at the Lido in Paris. A visionary, he acquired a neighboring plot of land in 1953, once owned by industrialist Louis Renault. It was on this very site that the Résidence du Provençal took root - hidden like a well-kept secret in a stretch of greenery above the sea.
With a shared identity and privileged proximity to the main hotel, guests at the Résidence enjoy access to the full range of 4-star amenities: restaurants and bar, swimming pool and private beach, landscaped park with tennis courts, pétanque, summer entertainment, and a wellness area. Résidence du Provençal is the ideal choice for a stay full of freedom in the Var.
Apartments in Paradise
Here, it’s all about sky, sun, and sea. Perched on a lush Mediterranean hillside, La Résidence du Provençal in Giens feels like a modern-day Babylonian Eden.
Inside this villa, typical of local architecture, you’ll find 23 independent units—from studios to spacious four-room apartments. Each one is named after a Mediterranean plant or bird. Available to rent year-round, fully equipped, and featuring balconies overlooking the pine forest and deep-blue sea below, they accommodate 2 to 6 guests in cozy comfort and authentic charm.
Peaceful retreats where cicadas sing and waves whisper in the distance — your home away from home for a heavenly stay.
Park, Pool, Tennis, Pétanque
An open-air playground, the private park of La Résidence du Provençal in Giens spans 2 hectares of natural beauty - perfect for strolls, quiet reading, and peaceful Mediterranean daydreaming.
From your apartment, follow the path winding through the mimosas to reach the tennis or pétanque courts. Friends gather, the game begins, and time seems to slip away. Below, the saltwater pool carved into the rock and its private beach offer a unique tête-à-tête with the deep blue sea.
Whether it’s sport, relaxation, or friendly fun - just a few strokes before lunch - the park is your space for free expression. It’s your move.
Restaurants
Just a 5-minute walk from our Appart-Hotel in Giens, the 4-star hotel Le Provençal offers five restaurants, each with its own unique personality.
Mediterranean flair and vibrant flavors at Le Bar du Soleil, shared grilled delights at Le Barbecue, gourmet tapas and fine wines at La Villa Barret, comforting family recipes at La Brasserie, and refined signature cuisine at La Rascasse - here, gastronomy is a resident artist.
