The approaching warmer weather signifies a new season for Maisons Pariente’s Hôtel Crillon le Brave. The picture-perfect hotel nestled in the heart of Vaucluse will reopen on 29 March, once again inviting guests to explore the village and its alleys, lounge by the pool, recharge and relax in the hotel’s spa, and indulge in exquisitely flavoured food.
This March, Crillon le Brave will be reborn thanks to an exciting itinerary of specially curated Easter activities for guests of all ages to add to the renowned gourmet and wellness offerings. Below, we take a closer look at what the luxury hotel has in store for its guests:
Bespoke Easter Experiences

Refreshing New Spa Offerings
In addition to launching the AIME wellness retreat in April, Hôtel Crillon le Brave will introduce a selection of new spa treatments for guests to experience.
For keen hikers and cyclists who have spent the day traversing Mont Ventoux, the new targeted Invigorating Treatment will help soothe their tired muscles. Using a combination of massage techniques and pressotherapy aids physical recovery by draining toxins out of the lymphatic system and reducing the absorption of water into the muscles.
The treatment can be complemented with a 45-minute physical preparation or recovery session with Raphaëlle, Hôtel Crillon le Brave’s resident sport coach, including articular flexibility, targeted exercises, gentle workouts, and stretching exercises.
The hotel will also launch a second new treatment this year, the Complex Face Massage by Tata Harper. Guests will have the opportunity to experience ultimate luxury and rejuvenation with this facial massage, enhanced with the powerful benefits of LED therapy, to lift, oxygenate, and drain the skin, improve its health and deliver exceptional results.
Olympic Flame
Paris is set to ignite this summer, hosting the Olympic games from 26 July to 11 August, and the thrill of the Olympic experience will not be confined to the capital alone.

The Torch Relay for this year’s Olympic games has been curated to offer a deep dive into French history, creating links between different eras and showcasing significant sites and locations that have built France as it is today.
