Riva, La Table

In the village of La Cadière d’Azur, under the Var sun and the Cypress trees of Provence, stands Maison Bérard. Established on the Mediterranean shores since 1969, Marie-Victoire Bérard has given it a new lease of life.
Here, your stay is designed to allow you to relax in tune with the gentle rhythm of Provence and the cycle of the seasons. The 33 rooms, harmoniously interspersed between different buildings surrounding an outdoor swimming pool, invite you to escape. Each room, decorated around a theme inspired by southern culture-olive green, Mediterranean blue, the painters’ pavilion, or the ramparts-reflects a tribute to the landscapes and art of living à la provençale.

From the terrace, the breathtaking view over the Bandol vineyards evokes a profound sense of freedom. Hospitality and sharing, values dear to Maison Bérard, are reflected in every gesture, every attention, offering a setting conducive to serenity and reconnection with nature.

In terms of cuisine, the Riva restaurant offers a warm ambience in an elegant, modern setting, with a breathtaking panoramic view. At Riva, every plate tells a culinary story, and the menu evokes the generosity of the land and the charm of the Mediterranean, with recipes based on seasonal produce. The dishes are a perfect balance between modern and tasty, and the conviviality is felt as much on the plate as in the atmosphere of the place. Here, Chef Mathieu Gourreau orchestrates a culinary approach that values authentic cuisine, while integrating modern techniques to reinvent traditional dishes steeped in nostalgia.

While you’re in the Var, take a moment to get back to basics with the AromaSpa. Inspired by Roman baths, it offers a 500m² space dedicated to relaxation. This place of well-being includes a sauna, a hammam, a cardio-training room, a sensory shower, an herbal tea area and 7 treatment cabins. Voted “Best Resort Spa in France” in 2010 and “Spa d’excellence” in 2011, it embodies the art of relaxation à la provençale, where every moment is an invitation to relax and let go. Once you’re here, you’ll find a boutique selling tableware, local products and gourmet treats at the hotel reception.
