The story of Gaou Bénat

La Domaine du Gaou Bénat" is an exceptional private domain located in Bormes-les-Mimosas (Var, Provence-Alpes Côte d'Azur). It is an exclusive 160-hectare estate on the Mediterranean coast. Here, nature is still fully respected and the domain is completely surrounded by beautiful vegetation. There are strict building rules, so the construction of all the holiday homes consists of the typical natural stones of Bormes-les-Mimosas, which brings a beautiful harmony to the domain of Gaou Bénat. The villas are all completely private and disappear into this beautiful nature among the pine trees and oaks.

Would you also like to enjoy this beautiful holiday domain, but within your own private holiday home? Looking for a holiday home with private pool on the Côte d'Azur (French Riviera) ? A villa on the Gaou Bénat domain such as Les Eucalyptus, Valanvi, Plein Ciel or Villa Bormes les Mimosas are always top choices.

Daily life in the Domain

When you rent a holiday home on the private Gaou Bénat domain in Bormes-les-Mimosas (Var, Provence-Alpes Côte d'Azur), everything is close by. The domain can be traversed via footpaths marked "Gaou Piétons". The private beach can also be reached on foot in about 20 minutes. If you rent Les Eucalyptus it is only a 5 minute walk, or if you are a bit higher up on the domain in Plein Ciel, you can enjoy fantastic views, but then the beach is a bit further away.

Apart from the beach, there is also a sailing club and tennis courts that are not to be missed during your stay in the Gaou Bénat holiday homes. The sailing club (https://ycgb.fr/) offers not only lessons but also rental of sailboats, paddle and kayak. You can also enjoy a meal on the private beach of the domain, if you want to relax and leave the cooking in your cottage with private pool in Gaou Bénat for the afternoon or evening.

Interesting to know: Le Gaou Bénat is under permanent surveillance 24/7 during the high season. To access the domain, it is advisable to purchase a "badge", which you can buy for 10 euros at the guard post at the entrance of the domain. This badge also allows you to use the 2 parking places at the beach.
