Domaine des Andéols

Fantastic breakfast, beautiful location, very friendly and helpful staff, very peaceful and quiet, and great room! Would love to have stayed here longer!

What could be improved: Room service ordering was quite difficult and confusing. The request for a late check-out was first confirmed but then later there was confusion as to whether they could fulfill it. The swimming pools are quite shallow so it's not really meant for swimming.

- The overall location/setting
- The room and its awesome view
- The friendless of the staff
- The calmness/quiet
- The ultra-efficient concierge service
- The local production (vegetables, olive oil, wine…)

What could be improved: - The food at the main restaurant as there were not too many options.
- The breakfast. In the price paid some more extra things should have been included (e.g. eggs or omelet)
- The service at all 3 restaurants could be improved

The grounds are beautiful and our room and the garden that went with it very nice. The welcome was excellent and the two meals we ate there were both delicious, although the waiting staff seemed untrained. We especially enjoyed Le Plantane Restaurant which was in a great place with a good price, food and service. The swimming pool is also very nice and in a beautiful spot.

What could be improved: We only ate one breakfast there as it was not up to expectations for the price. which was extra. In our room, whenever someone got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, the lights in the bathroom came on automatically with a motion detector which disturbed the other person who was sleeping --- and the toilet makes a noise as well when it automatically opens. There should be an option for an alcoholic welcome drink rather than just lemonade.

We recently spent five nights at Domaines des Andéols and had a mostly very enjoyable stay. The setting is absolutely beautiful, with stunning views across the Provence countryside - a perfect setting for switching off and unwinding. The grounds are beautifully maintained and thoughtfully designed, with a distinctive artistic flair throughout. Our room was comfortable and characterful, and the staff were consistently helpful and attentive, offering warm and discreet service throughout our stay. We especially loved the main pool area – scenic, (mostly) peaceful, and a real highlight of our stay, as was dining at La Platane.

What could be improved: However, there were a few disappointments. The fine dining restaurant was closed throughout our visit due to two weddings either side of our stay, and with the bar closing at 7:30pm, the food and drink options were very limited. It would have been helpful to have been notified of this in advance or offered alternative options.

The property also states it does not accept children under 10 and that the main pool is for 12+, however this policy did not appear to be enforced. During our stay, there were several guests with very young children, including families playing games in the main pool (and toddlers using the hot tub) which did impact the tranquillity of what we understood was intended to be a more adult-oriented setting.

While the property is clearly stylish, there were a few small maintenance issues that detracted slightly from the overall experience - our in-room fridge didn’t chill and there were a few fixtures and fittings in need of attention, mostly down to wear and tear. Minor details, perhaps, but for a property positioning itself at a premium level, these are things that could be easily addressed. We also felt the atmosphere in the evenings would have benefited from the simple touch of lighting the many outdoor candles, which would have added warmth and ambience.
