The pool

The outdoor pool is set on an elevated terrace in a relaxed environment surrounding by comfortable chic sun loungers. It is 6m-11m so the perfect size for a casual length rather than a full on work out.

The Bar is open from 11:00 to 22:00. Whether you are looking for a quick latte or a cocktail or pastis, everything is on offer here. The Bar itself has plenty of different areas for a quiet drink. Outside, in the early evening, the Terrace Ventoux (above the pool) is a great place to sit and watch the ever-changing shadows of the corrugated southern face of Mont Ventoux. They also have live music several nights a week with a mix of gentle jazz and Mediterranean rhythms.
