Jean-Michel Wilmotte has re-imagined a pre-existing 1970s modernist building. The elegant, refined La Réserve Ramatuelle (opening in May 2009) is designed to be a home away from home, in a warm, gracious atmosphere. Located in the peaceful Provençal countryside, not far from the pretty village of Ramatuelle, La Réserve is a world away from the neighbouring Saint-Tropez. Suspended between sky and sea on the tip of a hill, the hotel overlooks a timeless collage of cornflower skies and turquoise waters. Jean-Michel Wilmotte has not diluted the modernist magic of the original building; he has just reconfigured it, and re-clothed it in a sandier hue, with everything paying homage to the view. This 5* Hotel-Spa is done in natural materials in a soft palette of ochre, white and sandy beige, as if mirroring its superb environment.
With 7 rooms and 16 suites of 50 to 100-sq.m., each with a private terrace or garden, La Réserve Ramatuelle has chosen to offer guests a discreet, personal environment. This privileged place has a view on the Mediterranean Sea as far as the eye can see. The 5* hotel-spa is harmoniously integrated into the La Réserve Ramatuelle private domain, which includes 12 superb rental villas by the sea offering guests plenty of room and private spaces, such as gardens ranging from 3,500 to 5,000 sq.m, each with its own terrace and private pool. With a well-honed sense of discretion, luxury and better living, the La Réserve Ramatuelle Spa offers a total-care approach for a new lifestyle. A 1,000-square-meter spa was designed like a private space dedicated to enhancing the future well-being of the individual.
