Space and serenity on the hillside
Some mornings are worth waking up for. Those when you push open the shutters, barefoot on the cool tile floor, and the view catches you off guard: the hills of Bormes rolling as far as the eye can see, golden in the rising sun. You head to the terrace with your coffee, settle in facing the scenery, and realize you have nothing else to do but savor this day as it begins. Welcome to Olea, this XXL apartment where space breathes and vacations take their time to unfold.
An apartment that thinks big
From the moment you enter, you can tell no one will be elbowing for space here. A small terrace by the entrance welcomes you gently, perfect for catching your breath when the heat bears down. Then the living area unfolds its generous volumes: an open kitchen where everyone naturally gravitates, a large table for meals that stretch on, a plush sofa for movie nights or aperitifs that slide into dinner. And that elongated terrace running along the living room, a true outdoor extension where you'll spend more time outside than in. Facing the hills, with that Provençal light shifting through the hours, it's the ideal spot for lazy breakfasts, extended happy hours, and dinners under the stars.
For sleeping arrangements, three bedrooms share the space intelligently: two feature double beds, the third offers twin beds. Each benefits from real storage (no more permanently open suitcases), carefully chosen décor, and that tranquility we all seek on vacation. A beautiful bright shower room and separate WC complete the picture. Everything is designed for six people to coexist without friction.
Three compelling reasons to fall for it
- Unobstructed views of the Bormes hills: a soothing panorama that changes with the light, no neighbors overlooking you, no visual clutter
- Double terrace catching the sun: one by the entrance for coolness, one by the living room for long evenings facing the hills
- Generous volumes and storage everywhere: 6 people breathing easy, zero crowding, closets that swallow everything
The residence, a peaceful haven
Olea is part of a tranquil residence where a restrained holiday atmosphere prevails. The showstopper? The shared unheated pool, perfect for those life-saving dips in late afternoon, when the sun starts to dip and the water welcomes you with that delicious coolness that awakens the senses. A few strokes to loosen the muscles, a moment floating with your eyes to the sky, and you emerge regenerated, ready for the evening aperitif.
Bormes-les-Mimosas, Provençal charm meets turquoise waters
Olea places you in one of the most beautiful corners of the Var, in Bormes-les-Mimosas, this flowery medieval village that blends Provençal authenticity with immediate proximity to the Mediterranean. From your terrace, the view stretches far across the hills: it's calm, it's restorative, it's exactly what you came looking for. A few minutes' drive away, you're diving into the crystal-clear waters of La Favière, Le Lavandou, or secret coves that only locals know about. Provençal market on Wednesday mornings, fish restaurants with your toes in the sand, forest walks or seaside strolls, sunrise paddleboarding: Bormes has that rare gift of combining mountain and sea, calm and activity, without ever overdoing it.
