Announcing 2026 Provence Retreat Dates

I usually wait until February to announce new fall retreats, but so many of you have been asking for dates early. To my organized planners: I see you and I adore you. Thank goodness you’re not all like me with my spontaneous travel habits. So here we are with the 2026 Provence dates ready to share!

Everything you need to know about the retreat is linked below, but I also want to draw your attention to an article I wrote last year about what happens when you gather a group of strangers for a week of beauty, meals, and meaningful moments. If you have not read it yet, I invite you to dive in. I will link it below.

Next year’s retreats bring something special. We will be returning to our beloved house in Gordes for the fifth year, perched high above the valley, and I am thrilled to announce a second Provence week based in Ménerbes at private villas surrounded by vineyards that are part of La Bastide de Marie. We will have two neighboring villas, each sleeping five women, with their own terraces and pools connected by a garden, so we can move easily between them and enjoy both spaces throughout the week. As always, every guest will have her own private bathroom. Since these villas belong to La Bastide de Marie, you will also have access to the hotel’s boutique and spa treatments for an additional fee. It feels like the perfect new chapter for our Provence adventures.

If you have a friend who needs a week of sunshine, beauty, and joy, the kind of week that lingers long after we have returned home, please send this their way. These retreats are always intimate groups of seven to eight women, and the WhatsApp chats continue long after we say goodbye.

Below are the dates and the link to learn more and to submit your application.

And you will find my 5 Lessons from The Good Life Retreat here.

P.s. I am also cooking up two new 2026 retreats to the French Riviera and Normandy, and will add Paris to the lineup soon. You can join the waitlist for those dates and information here.
