Having stayed at a number of the fermes de marie group, the bastide compared very favourably. The attention to detail is what makes it stand out, loved the provencal decor. The service is overall very good but I have to say the abrasive receptionist (manager) did leave a lasting negative memory. We stayed for 7 nights and upon departing were... more

Ok, I've only read 1 (not so positive) review. Forget that!!! La Bastide de Marie was one of the most wonderful places we've stayed in France. We do our fair share of luxury travel and you will not be sorry you stayed here. Charming, calming, luxurious, country elegant, pampering all come to mind when I think of this place. It's... more

we stayed here for three nights. The arrangement is all-inclusive and rather pricey . However, the setting amid the vineyards near Menerbes with gardens and tall trees is magnificent. The hotel bastide with country-house-style stay is memorable. The food and house-wines are good and generous, the service friendly. Bathroom not up to modern standards with hand shower only- taking the... more

My husband and I just returned from our 15th anniversary trip to France which included 3 nights at Bastide de Marie. It was wonderful.

You are in the middle of a beautiful vineyard at this hotel. Open your window and there it is. Provence like you think it should be. I just returned from a 2 week stay in France with my parents and husband. We had 2 regular rooms here, red and blue I think. The food was quite good and the setting... more

The place is absolutely beautiful and the Luberon valley a fantastic destination. The views are amazing and the decoration of the bastide is extremely creative and tasteful. Given that we were paying over 700€ a night plus extras our expectations were high. We were however, very put-off by the service. We have travelled in France a lot in the past... more

My husband and I had 2 weeks planned to travel in France and wanted one exceptional accomodation experience and this was it! Thank goodness for the GPS we had purchased because it's not easy to find. Once there it's hard to leave...the vineyard is spectacular and views breathtaking. There is a choice of a heated and not heated pool to... more

THIS HOTEL IS AWFUL.....good - so now you've stopped reading this review I can indulge myself a little. You see this place is so lovely and magnificent that I want it all for myself !!! My wife and I stayed here for just 1 night in June 2005 and what a place. It's situated in it's own vineyards near the... more

Words cannot describe this hotel. Celestial at the least more
