The south of France, with its stunning landscapes and endless opportunities for exploration, serves as the perfect backdrop for both leisure and adrenaline-fueled excursions.

Wellness and Fitness

Physical activity and wellness are essential parts of life at the villa, with colivers embracing a variety of workouts and sports to stay active and healthy. Colivers often invite one another to join group sessions, such as yoga, Pilates, or Tibetan Five exercises, using the yoga mats available on the property. These shared activities not only promote physical and mental well-being but also create moments of connection, inspiring everyone to embrace a balanced and active lifestyle together.

Some digital nomads prefer jogging or visiting nearby gyms, while others take advantage of the villa’s basic outdoor gym to stay active.

Colivers unwind and recover with the villa’s wellness amenities, including a massage chair, jacuzzi, sauna, and swimming pool.
