Les Carmes and Spa

Beautiful and expansive property in a park-like setting, which the hosts upgraded with various activities available (pool, workout and exercise area, sauna, etc). Our room was large and comfortable, a bit of a hike up two flights of stairs. Breakfast was good, albeit the same every day, but the croissants, fresh bread, yogurt, fresh preserves and coffee were very good. Too much cannot be said of our hosts Pascal and Mina, who were super helpful and exuberant. They provided great restaurant suggestions in nearby L' Ilse sur la Sorgue, which had a large choice of excellent restaurants.

Lovely “traditional” small French pension. Owner Pascal friendly and proud of his accommodations. Rooms were all large to enormous. Maybe 8 or 9 rooms total. Great outdoor space. Housekeeping spotty. Room was clean but some days they didn’t restock anything. Not sure how often comforters and quilts cleaned. Breakfast was fine. Yogurt, bread basket, granola, fresh juice. Great coffee. Fresh cut fruit wasn’t changed out and we watched it go brown over 5 days. Pool was very nice with lots of outdoor recreation. You need a car here. There is no lunch service and minimal dinner. Ubers are available but at €15-€20 each way the cost goes up quickly. Most rooms did not have refrigerators. There was tea and coffee service in the room. Great water pressure. That being said at less than €200 a night for a large room I would stay again but only if I had a car. The town of L’Isle sur la Sorgue was lovely. Loved hearing the sheep and roosters.

We had the most wonderful stay enjoying the stunning setting and amenities and being spoiled by our incredible host Pascal whose energy and genuine concern for his guests cannot be overstated. Our room in the top tower was spacious and comfortable with a stunning view of the pool and grounds and a great shower. Our sons were day campers at the Bosquier football academy in Cavaillon so we were up early, and Pascal was there to serve us a delicious breakfast at 7:30 every day. The croissants are cooked right there (the best we had in France) and there was fruit, bread, granola, yogurt as well as ham and cheese upon request. And excellent coffee! As others have mentioned the 7-8 pm wine hour is a real treat, and Pascal makes sure every glass is full with terrific wine and everyone feels welcome. The pool is a great size, crystal clear and refreshing with lots of comfortable seats and umbrellas for shade, and the outdoor gym and ping pong were great options for a quick workout or an evening match. We paid the small fee to use the hot tub which is also sparkling clean and therapeutic for legs tired out from football. You do need a car, but close-by are many great options for lunch or dinner. We never timed a meal in quaint Le Thor right (wish we had - it looked so lovely!) but we loved Isla la Sorgue and Fontaine de Vaucluse where we took a fun and memorable trip in a kayak down the Sorgue. In addition to Pascal, the maid service was terrific, and Marion who we met on our last day was also very kind. Pascal and his team work incredibly hard to ensure guests have a relaxing and memorable stay, and these “USA people” certainly did. Thank you Pascal!

This is the most fabulous small hotel. The accommodation and the service is top notch! Our room was large and beautiful with the strongest shower I have ever been under, which is a real bonus with long hair. The exterior grounds are gorgeous with a proper sized swimming pool. We thoroughly enjoyed the continental breakfast and the complementary aperitifs between 7-8 pm. The host/owner was delightful and all his little extra touches made this an excellent stay. For us it was a great base for visiting the nearby villages. We hope to return next year.

Very highly recommend this B&B. Location is perfect on the edge of the Luberon and near Avignon. Beautiful grounds with a lovely views of farms and vineyards. The service was outstanding! Both Pascal and Mina are extremely friendly, accommodating and happy to help with reservations, advice or I'm sure anything else. Extremely reasonable price for the overall quality.

We had an amazing time at Domaine des Carmes & Spa in Provence. This place is the real deal, and Pascal, the manager, is fantastic. The rooms are cozy and full of Provencal charm. Pascal went out of his way to make sure we had a great stay, offering excellent local tips. The breakfasts were a delightful taste of Provence, and the hotel's setting in a picturesque village is just perfect. We can't recommend Domaine des Carmes & Spa enough for an authentic and unforgettable Provencal experience. Thanks, Pascal, for making it so special! We will definitely be back ＜3
