Approaching the coast and village of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer
Arriving by car
Most guests reach the domain by car. From the A9 motorway between Montpellier and Marseille, follow signs for Arles, then Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer on the D570. The road crosses flat country and rice fields: allow extra time in summer when traffic builds toward the coast.
The hotel offers a free car park that is closed at night. After check-in, use the resort map to find pools, restaurants, and stables without circling the lanes. If you drive an electric vehicle, ask reception about the nearest charging options when you book.
Trains and local transfers
Arles station connects to regional and high-speed services. From Arles, local buses and taxis cover the last kilometres to Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer. Nîmes TGV is another option for long-distance trains, with a longer road transfer by taxi or hire car.
Train times change by season. Check current schedules on the day of travel and keep a taxi number handy for late arrivals.
Airports within reach
Montpellier and Marseille airports offer the widest choice of flights into the region. Nîmes airport serves a smaller range of routes but can shorten the drive when it fits your itinerary. All three require a road journey to the hotel, so plan landing times with daylight if you prefer an easy first drive across the Camargue.
Before you set off
Room check-in starts at 4 p.m. If you need an earlier luggage drop or late arrival, contact the hotel so reception can note your plans.
Once you are on site, the Tourism & Activities pages list excursions, riding, and local culture to fill your stay. Return to the home page any time for an overview of rooms, dining, and the spa.
