La Magdeleine, on the doorstep of the Mediterranean between Marseille and La Ciotat

More unspoilt and secluded than the Côte d’Azur, the Mediterranean along our coast is a treasure to discover from our 5-star hotel in Provence.

On the doorstep of the Mediterranean, between Marseille, Cassis and La Ciotat, La Magdeleine invites you on a seaside getaway, between secret beaches and the gentle Provençal way of life.

Rich in history, the Mediterranean is the cradle of many civilisations, but also an endless source of inspiration for artists, fascinated by its light, its colours and its contrasts. Less crowded than the Côte d’Azur but just as spectacular, our Provençal coast is full of natural gems to explore.

The calanques of Cassis, the intimate beaches of this typical fishing port and the long sandy stretches of Ceyreste or La Ciotat, just 25 minutes from the hotel, offer unique swimming experiences.

Facing La Ciotat, the Île Verte is a true haven of peace, reached by boat shuttle, ideal for lovers of nature, calm and lazing about.

With more than 300 days of sunshine a year, swimming in Provence lasts from late March to October, in a sunny and peaceful atmosphere. Also discover our stay inspiration devoted to the Calanques National Park

Stay between land and sea

Ideally located in Gémenos, between the sea and the Sainte-Baume massif, La Magdeleine is a 5-star hotel and spa in Provence, surrounded by a two-hectare wooded park. You will find a Michelin-starred restaurant, a wellness area with sauna, jacuzzi and fitness room, and elegant rooms where calm reigns supreme.
