My husband and I enjoyed another perfect vacation at "Tour Des Beaumes"!! Last year we stayed during the first week of summer and this year the last week of summer. It was again perfect!! Eric and Jean made our stay so comfortable - it felt like coming home. Their hospitality is genuine and they were so kind to us throughout our stay. The property is beautiful and it is truly the most amazing place I have ever visited. The sunsets are magical and drinking wine next to the pool became a daily ritual. My husband and I live in Hawaii, but "Tour Des Beaumes" is our paradise. We plan to make this a must stay on our yearly vacations. A very big MERI to Eric and Jean!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, romantic getaway.

Tour des Beaumes is one of those places that you assume can't really be as idyllic as it looks in the photos, or as described in the reviews of other people. It is. It's one of those places where, when you first walk in (in this case, through gardens smelling of lavender, with a breathtaking vista), you get a bit emotional at how beautiful it is. Gordes itself is so jawdroppingly attractive, I was already bouncing off the walls with excitement by the time we got to the tower - there is a stunning hillside view just before you get to the turn off - and then the tower itself is just this ridiculously peaceful, beautiful haven. The building and gardens are lovely, the interior is simply but beautifully decorated, the view from the balcony is amazing, the pool is a delicious temperature - it was just heaven. On top of that, add perfect hosts - full of information, extraordinarily charming - they even brought us chocolate cake one day! - but also somehow invisible. Can't really do this holiday justice in a relatively small number of characters, but we have every intention of going back every year from now on, if we can.Recommended for: Romantic getaway.

Siamo stati alla bellissima Tour des Beaumes per una settimana nell'estate 2012 e devo dire che le nostre aspettative, già molto alte dopo aver visto le foto e letto i commenti degli altri ospiti, non solo non sono state deluse, ma anzi si sono rivelate inferiori alla realtà! La Torre è semplicemente perfetta, arredata con ottimo gusto e con tutto ciò che serve. Il giardino, in parte di ulivi ed in parte all'italiana, è tenuto alla perfezione, ma il fiore all'occhiello è senza ombra di dubbio la bellissima piscina, ideale per rinfrescarsi nelle assolate giornate estive. Sono inoltre a disposizione degli ospiti due lettini prendisole e due materassini (per non litigare), insomma: non c'è nulla che manchi (forse, proprio ad dover per forza trovare una mancanza, non sarebbe male avere una doccia vicino alla piscina)!! L'ospitalità dei padroni di casa, Eric e Jean, è inoltre più che perfetta: sempre disposti ad aiutare e dispensare ottimi consigli, rendono la vacanza - che sarebbe già di per sè perfetta - ancora migliore. Per questo motivo, innamorati della Tour des Beaumes, abbiamo deciso di tornare l'estate prossima, e speriamo ogni anno d'ora in poi!Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, romantic getaway.

Des vacances inoubliables ! Le lieu est fabuleux : une petite tour/maison au milieu d'un jardin idyllique avec unjet d'eau, et une suprebe piscine pour nous tous seuls... La région, le Luberon, est un vrai rêve, un concentré de Provence! Et les hôtes sont vraiment accueillants et nous ont aidés à profiter au mieux de cette location pour passer de belles vacances ! Encore bravo à Eric et Jean.Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway.

We have stayed at La Tour for several years now and look forward to it more each year. Jean & Eric are wonderful hosts. They're accommodating and thoughtful, yet give you lots of space & privacy. They have excellent suggestion for dining, day trips, shopping, and local resources. The first few years we spent most of our days exploring. Now, we spend most of our days by the pool or sitting on the patio just enjoying being in Provence. La Tour is very comfortable, and Eric & Jean always greet you with a surprise gift of wine and munchies. They even added WiFi, so staying in touch with home is easy. We love the accommodations and our hosts so much, we're planning 2 stays in 2013. Someday, we may just stay forever!

We have stayed at La Tour on several occasions. It is probably our favourite holiday location. Everything from the tower itself to the swimming pool and the gardens is as near perfect as you could wish for. The warm welcome that you get from Eric and Jean also makes returning a joy. We would recommend this property to any couple young or old who value comfort and peace and quiet. The property certainly lives up to the impressions of it that the photographs and description create.The countryside and Gordes itself are also great to explore either on foot or by car.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, romantic getaway.

This is one of the most amazing places we have stayed at. The location, hospitality and facilities are all out of this world. To be welcomed on arrival with a bottle of Rose and freshly baked brownies with strawberries was the cream on the top. Jean and Eric go out of their way to make you feel at home and with most of Provences most beautiful villages on your doorstep who could ask for more. I would recommend this without hesitation to anyone looking for that ultimate Provencal experience.Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway.

This is our favourite place to holiday. It is a completely unique and historic place to stay with beautiful furnishings, a large private garden that is beautifully lanscaped, and absolutely wonderful hosts who go to great lengths to ensure that you have wonderful experience. We have visited three times and every time it has surpassed all of our expectations. The website and description give a very accurate view of the property and its amenities. The owners are the best holiday hosts we have ever had. They are very helpful ensuring that every aspect of your stay is perfect and they are very welcoming. There is a wealth of attractions/ activities for all tastes nearby although the tower and the garden are so enchanting that staying in and enjoying the garden is an attraction in itself. We definitely plan to return. R and Ray AustraliaRecommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway.

Superb ! Our stay at Tour Des Beaumes was the best, lovliest experience. We thoought that June would be the ideal time. Lavender was in bloom. Warm pool all to yourselves. We stayed there for the trip of a lifetime -- 3 weeks during which we got to see the fields of wild red poppies in bloom and then the fields of lavender also come into bloom. Hot sunny days, cool nights. The tower is a small stone building amid olive trees, stone walls, and blooming roses. We walked into Gordes (5 minutes) every morning for coffee and our daily baguette. The bedroom is on the 2nd floor. You get to it via a beautiful exterior stone steps. The bath you use at night is on the 3rd floor via extremely steep, interior circular stairs (not recommended for anyone with mobility issues). The interior decor is extremely nice, and the yard (garden) with olive trees and private pool equally nice. Everything is meticulously maintained by pleasant, discreet hosts. Gordes itself is stunningly beautiful, and it's well located for seeing Provence and visiting nearby villages on their market days. You will need a rental car. Spend an unforgettable week at Tour Des Beaumes for its beauty, luxury, and privacy. We have traveled the world, and this spot is a sanctuary.
