Planning your holiday at Provence villa rentals should feel as effortless and joyful as the trip itself. But with hundreds of properties scattered across this enchanting region—and countless websites promising “the perfect stay”—finding the right one can quickly become overwhelming. That’s where Only Provence makes all the difference.
For nearly two decades, we’ve been helping travelers bring their Provence dreams to life. Our Villa Rental Specialists are more than booking agents—they are local insiders, trusted advisors, and dedicated partners in curating stays at Provence villa rentals that are as seamless as they are unforgettable. With our combination of deep local knowledge, a rigorously curated villa portfolio, and bespoke concierge services, we ensure every guest experiences Provence in its most authentic and luxurious form.
1. Local Knowledge That Goes Beyond the Guidebooks
Because we live and work in Provence, we know its rhythms, landscapes, and hidden corners better than anyone. Our team personally visits every property we represent, inspecting each room, testing every view, and ensuring every amenity meets our exacting standards. We work directly with villa owners and house managers to guarantee each home is maintained to perfection, creating peace of mind for both our guests and our hosts.
Our knowledge extends far beyond the villas themselves. We know which restaurant terrace in Bonnieux offers the best sunset, which Saint-Rémy café is best for lunch, and where to find a bakery worth the early-morning walk. We can advise on the best villages for an active family with children, or the quietest hamlets for a romantic escape. This blend of rigorous vetting, strong relationships, and genuine local expertise ensures every recommendation is made with absolute confidence and tailored to your personal vision of Provence.
2. A Curated Portfolio of 200+ Provence Villa Rentals
Unlike mass-market booking platforms, we turn down far more properties than we accept. Each villa is hand-selected for its location, design, amenities, and that rare, authentic Provençal charm. Our selection process is intentionally exacting—every home must meet our standards for beauty, comfort, and service before it is added to our collection.
From romantic hideaways tucked among olive groves to grand estates designed for milestone celebrations, our portfolio offers options for every style of traveler without ever sacrificing quality. We know that for our guests, time is too precious to spend in a villa that feels anything less than perfect. By curating with intention, we ensure that when you book with Only Provence, you’re not just reserving a property—you’re securing a home that has been chosen with care, discernment, and your experience in mind.
3. Concierge Services That Elevate Every Stay
Booking your villa is only the first step. Once your dates are secured, our concierge partners can connect you with a curated list of trusted local services to enhance your time in Provence. Think private chefs who can prepare seasonal meals in your kitchen, boutique wine tours with family-run vineyards, or sunrise yoga sessions on your terrace.
We can suggest local guides for market visits, point you toward exceptional dining experiences, and recommend activities that match your pace—whether you’re seeking active exploration or quiet relaxation. The options are thoughtfully chosen and based on longstanding relationships in the region, giving you a simple way to add authentic Provençal touches to your holiday without the guesswork.
4. Stress-Free Planning from Start to Finish
Your time is your most precious luxury, and we respect that. We handle the essentials—from matching you with the right villa to providing clear information on local services for transportation, private chefs, and select experiences—so you can focus on enjoying your trip.
Once your villa is confirmed, we’ll share recommendations from our trusted network so you can plan at your own pace, knowing that every option has been vetted by those who know the region best. Whether you’re looking for the best local market day, a scenic cycling route, or a charming café in the village square, we make it easy for you to enjoy Provence with confidence and ease.
5. Insider Access Few Can Offer for Provence Villa Rentals
Our deep relationships throughout Provence open doors to experiences you simply can’t book online. Imagine a private tasting of unreleased vintages with a vineyard owner, where you sip wines accompanied by stories passed down through generations. Or join a trusted local guide for a dawn market stroll, meeting vendors and sampling seasonal specialties before the crowds arrive.
We also know the secret picnic spots with the best views in the Luberon, the quiet trails that lead to panoramic vistas, and the artisans whose workshops are rarely open to the public. These are not tourist experiences—they are moments crafted from years of personal connection, lived experience, and the trust we’ve built within our community. It’s the kind of insider access that turns a trip into a memory you’ll treasure for a lifetime.
6. Transparency You Can Trust
Our reputation is built on honesty and clarity. If a villa’s charming farmhouse kitchen comes with a few quirks, we’ll let you know. If a property’s layout is best enjoyed by adults rather than young children, we’ll share that openly. We believe that informed guests are happy guests, and we never want you to be surprised by something we could have told you in advance.
By sharing both the highlights and the nuances, we help ensure that your villa matches your expectations—or exceeds them. This level of transparency, combined with our meticulous vetting process, is why so many guests return to Only Provence year after year. They know they can trust us to match them with a property that suits their needs perfectly, without compromise.
7. A Partner Every Step of the Way
From your first inquiry to your final farewell, you’ll have a dedicated team to guide you through the process—people who listen, offer tailored advice, and anticipate needs you may not have considered.
This is not a transactional service—it’s a relationship built on trust, attention, and genuine care. You’re never just a booking number with us; you’re a valued guest whose time and comfort matter deeply. When you arrive in Provence, every aspect of your stay will feel effortless, curated, and entirely your own.
Your Provence, Your Way
Every traveler has their own vision of Provence—lounging by a sunlit pool, cycling through vineyards, treasure-hunting in antique markets, or celebrating life’s milestones beneath centuries-old plane trees. We take the time to listen to your vision, understand your preferences, and consider the subtleties that make your trip uniquely yours.
Drawing on our regional expertise, carefully vetted villa collection, and trusted network of local partners, we bring that vision to life. Every detail, from the view outside your window to the experiences woven into your itinerary, is designed to reflect your perfect Provence.
