ALL ABOUT EZA<br />

Worth every heart-pounding step up the stone stairs to the near tip-top of this perched medieval village,<br />

the 14-room uber-romantic hotel Château Eza (chateaueza.com) is shining even brighter these days, now<br />

that newly awarded Michelin-star chef Justin Schmitt is serving up exquisite seafood-themed tasting menus,<br />

from roast octopus satay to a lobster caviar dish in champagne sauce. Add to that a contemporary-style<br />

sprawling presidential suite and one of the Riviera’s most spectacular vistas of the shimmering sea.<br />

LAP OF LUXURY<br />

The Salon<br />

Libanais in the<br />

Sisley Spa at<br />

Hôtel Byblos<br />

Saint-Tropez<br />

Spa at Hôtel Byblos Saint-Tropez (byblos.<br />

com). Here, guests can disconnect from their<br />

fast-paced routines thanks to the approach to<br />

remedy treatments and in energy-channeling<br />

curated workshops that include yoga,<br />

meditation, human design, breathwork, reiki,<br />

and sound healing, plus a choice of innovative<br />

anti-aging massage techniques. Customized<br />

classes are held in the intimacy of the spa’s<br />

restful inner courtyard (think a Roger Caprondesigned<br />

mosaic-tile floor shaded by banana<br />

and flowering camellia trees) with a sky view.<br />

Highlights include the mythologically themed<br />

inner harmony treatments and pranayama,<br />

meditation classes, and a one-on-one session<br />

with wellness consultant extraordinaire,<br />

Marion M’Santi, whose extensive knowledge<br />

of Shamanism, yoga, and meditative practices<br />

encourages a profound self-reconnection.<br />

Add to that the five-element “Epic Journey”<br />

program, accompanied by a delicious glutenfree<br />

and vegetarian menu with freshly plucked<br />

ingredients from the hotel’s neighboring<br />

garden, whipped up by Byblos’ executive chef<br />

Nicola Canuti.<br />

Steps away is the new exotic-meets-<br />

Provençal restaurant Les Délices du Pan Deï at<br />

the poolside terrace of 12-room boutique hotel,<br />

Pan Deï Palais (airelles.com). Helmed by chef<br />

Antonio Oresta, signature dishes include sea<br />

bass in a salt crust, slow-cooked shoulder of<br />

lamb, colorful creative salads, and a divine saltand-olive-oil<br />

chocolate mousse for dessert.<br />
