Luxury Lodge in the Verdon – Spirit of Bali

Why choose a luxury lodge in the Verdon over a traditional hotel?

Each year, the Verdon draws travellers in search of unspoilt nature and authenticity. Yet between the gorge hotels — often shared, lively, and at times family-oriented — and the solitude of a traditional gîte, there has until now been little in the way of alternatives for couples wishing to combine exceptional comfort with absolute privacy. The Lodge Spirit of Bali at La Noccemada fills precisely that gap. Entirely private from start to finish, it offers the independence of a holiday home alongside the service of a luxury establishment: a Michelin-credentialled private chef, an exclusive jacuzzi, a beautifully maintained tropical garden, continental breakfast included, and a team that is attentive without ever being intrusive. Here, you share neither your space, nor your pool, nor your moments. This luxury lodge in the Verdon is for those who have seen everything — and who now seek simply to feel.

Where is La Noccemada, and how do you reach this luxury lodge in the Verdon?

La Noccemada is located at 63 route des Rouvières, in Saint-Julien-le-Montagnier, in the Var (83560), at the crossroads of the Var and the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. This discreet geographical setting makes it one of the finest luxury lodges from which to explore the Gorges du Verdon and its surrounding area. The estate is 40 minutes from Aix-en-Provence, one hour from Marseille, 1 hour 15 minutes from Toulon, and just 30 minutes from Lac d'Esparron-de-Verdon. The beaches of the Côte d'Azur are 1 hour 45 minutes away. Remote and entirely without immediate neighbours, the lodge nonetheless enjoys a central position for exploring one of the most unspoilt natural regions in the south of France. An address shared only with a privileged few.
