In a few words

Celebrate the New Year in the heart of the spectacular Calanques National Park , a natural gem between Marseille and La Ciotat. This limestone massif, with its vertiginous cliffs and deep coves sculpted by time, offers a unique setting to end the year in style. Between coastal hikes bathed in Mediterranean light and discovering the captivating scents of the garrigue, each day is an invitation to wonder.

On December 31st, a special evening awaits you in a welcoming restaurant: a festive meal , dancing , a glass of champagne , and exceptional wine to celebrate in a convivial atmosphere. This stay is an enchanting interlude between sea and rock, where unspoiled nature, local history (like the famous Cassis stone), and shared moments blend perfectly.

Ideal for welcoming the new year in a bright and wild setting, this trip combines authenticity , Mediterranean energy and a festive spirit.

The highlights

  • Immersion between sea and rock in a wild and authentic setting
  • Festive New Year's Eve party with fine dinner, dancing and champagne
  • Unique flora and fauna in France

Access by car
Travel to the place of stay with parking available

Be aware that free parking is limited in Cassis. The most economical option is to park at the "Parking des Gorguettes" at the entrance to the town. From there, you can take a shuttle bus to the town center (the shuttle costs approximately €2).


You can also park in one of Cassis's guarded, paid car parks: La Madie, Viguerie, or Les Mimosas, all near the hotel. We recommend avoiding the town centre! Opt for La Madie, a 10-minute walk from the hotel, but more easily accessible as it doesn't go into the town centre.
