5,000 m² of tropical garden in the heart of the Verdon
A Balinese setting in the heart of Provençal Var

The Lodge Spirit of Bali draws from Bali its mastery of lush, intimate greenery and its sensual relationship with water. Bamboo, tropical species, a water mirror: every detail has been thoughtfully composed to create a complete sense of escape, just a few kilometres from the Verdon gorges.

On an anniversary evening, the estate takes on an entirely different dimension. The soft glow of the outdoor living area, the gentle murmur of the jacuzzi, the scents of the night garden – together they create an atmosphere no table decoration could ever replicate.

La Noccemada is located at 63 route des Rouvières, 83560 Saint-Julien-le-Montagnier. One hour from Marseille, 1h15 from Toulon, 1h45 from the beaches of the Côte d'Azur: far enough to leave the world behind, close enough to sacrifice nothing.

Why choose La Noccemada for an extraordinary stay in the Var?

Unusual accommodation in the Var is plentiful: bubbles, yurts, geodesic domes… Most rely on the novelty of their concept without ever guaranteeing true exclusivity. At the Lodge Spirit of Bali, what makes the experience exceptional is not the form of the structure, but what it makes possible: complete intimacy, palace-level gastronomic service, and a 1.5-hectare estate where you are, quite literally, the sole masters of the domain. For an anniversary in the Var, this distinction is everything. The private jacuzzi is shared with no one. Chef Stephan, whose career spans establishments recognised by the Michelin Guide — from the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat to the Hôtel des Bergues in Geneva — composes a bespoke dinner served outdoors, beneath the stars of the Verdon. This is not a catering service; it is a rare culinary dedication, available at 110€ per person on reservation. Further curated experiences are on offer to elevate a truly intimate anniversary celebration: a massage or spa treatment for one or two guests at 200€, a private gipsy concert from 250€, a culinary or watercolour workshop at 100€ per person. Every experience is booked directly, with no intermediary, at the best guaranteed rate — 15 to 35% less than booking platforms.
