The Pool at Villa Gallici

"But the Gallici feels like a destination on its own: an old Provençal villa flanked by rows of apartments, a terraced restaurant, and a decadent swimming pool surrounded by bougainvillea"

"Traditional 18th-century residence surrounded by fragrant Florentine gardens and a pool, a five-minute walk from downtown Aix-en-Provence"

"In fine weather, a lunch buffet is served poolside"

"Days may be spent lounging by the terra-cotta–trimmed pool; candlelit dinners are served alfresco under the stars"

"Cool off in the outdoor pool"

"There’s a lovely lavender-filled garden to breakfast in, plus a super pool for lazy evening swims"

"A picturesque pool, luxe spa, and fitness center all complete the package"

"Wi-Fi is available free of charge throughout the hotel, including the new pool house, which has been revamped for multipurpose events for up to 25 people"

"The salon area opens onto a terrace adorned with classical statues of goddesses, who seem to look kindly upon the villa’s guests; below, a swimming pool is surrounded by blooming pink bay trees in terracotta pots"
