BEATING THE WINTER BLUES

Head for the sun

Lack of light affects our mood, saps our vitality and makes it difficult to find inner balance: this is what we call the winter blues. Short days and low temperatures can drive us inward, into a kind of hibernation. This sense of winter fatigue grows heavier with each passing week. Our body needs sunlight to regulate its biological clock. Our mind longs for a change of scenery and the feeling of lightness that comes with sunny days. Amid this quiet struggle, a spring trip to the south can help restore harmony. Light acts as a trigger, reviving our energy and stimulating our senses.

WHY CHOOSE A SPRING HOLIDAY?

Awakening the senses

Spring is a season of perfect balance. The sun’s warmth caresses our skin without being harsh, destinations remain pristine, and nature comes alive with a special intensity. 

Landscapes burst into colour, markets teem with fresh produce and each region bares its true soul. It's the ideal time to experience places differently, more intimately: walks in the fresh air, wellness breaks at the spa, long lunches on the terrace, morning yoga sessions, leisurely strolls through village streets or along a wild, untouched beach. Spring imposes nothing; it opens every possibility.

SUNNY DESTINATIONS FOR SPRING

Here are Beaumier's top spots for walking, breathing, observing, soaking up the southern sunshine – and letting winter gradually fade away.

The Luberon awakens

At this time of year, the Luberon transforms into an impressionist painting come to life. Each day lends new colour to the hills. Almond, cherry and apricot trees are adorned with pink and white flowers in spectacular bloom, while the valleys are draped in soft greens. The light turns golden, and the air is filled with the scents of damp earth and blooming buds. All around, nature awakens in a ballet of colours, birdsong and silken breezes.

Capelongue, Bonnieux
Perched on the edge of the Claparèdes plateau, Capelongue stirs with spring. From the moment you arrive, you will find yourself enveloped in the sweeping panorama of the Petit Luberon. Whether it's a yoga session in the gardens, a leisurely lunch at La Bergerie overlooking Bonnieux or a moment of absolute silence at the spa, each experience offers a breath of fresh air. Afternoons draw to a close with a few laps in the heated pool under a clear sky. As evening falls, the light fades over the hills and paints a sunset that sets the stage for your dinner at the Michelin-starred restaurant La Bastide.

Le Moulin, Lourmarin
In the heart of Lourmarin, Le Moulin embodies the true Provençal way of life. From your room adorned in warm, southern hues, surrender to the sounds and scents of the village: the Friday market, the lively terraces and the fragrance of wildflowers in the air. Enjoy a coffee on the terrace by the olive tree, lose yourself in the cobbled streets, and let yourself be carried away by the joys of spring in the Luberon. When you feel like exploring, hop on a bike and set off through the vineyards and neighbouring villages, where the light and fresh air will rejuvenate your body and mind. Back at the hotel, the pool awaits you for a few soothing strokes, before you head to the terrace, glass in hand, to bask in the warmth of spring days.

Petunia, Ibiza’s hidden charm

Overlooking Ibiza's secluded bays and bathed in Mediterranean light, Petunia perfectly captures the essence of a traditional finca, with its whitewashed walls, sunny terraces and gardens. The rooms and suites of Beaumier’s boutique hotel in the Balearic Islands open to the horizon, evoking a feeling of freedom where the gaze is lost in the infinite sea and sky. Around the pool, the days are guided solely by your desires: relaxing swims, reading under the palm trees or simply lounging. Every corner of the hotel beckons you to immerse yourself in its light and scents, and to surrender to Ibiza’s serenity.

ACTIVITIES TO MAKE THE MOST OF SPRING

At each of our retreats, the mild temperatures will inspire you to step outside, get moving, reconnect with nature and rediscover the joy of longer days.

Discover nature reborn

Come spring, nature is the finest backdrop of all. In the Luberon, the paths wind their way through ever-changing landscapes. Cherry trees come into bloom and hillsides become blanketed with verdant new growth, inviting leisurely walks, mindful contemplation and photography. In the Forêt des Cèdres, cool air flows through the treetops, while wine routes reveal vineyards quietly budding. On the Riviera a few kilometres away, hiking through the Estérel transcends into pure contemplation. Red rock meets tender green vegetation in striking contrast, while spring’s light sculpts every contour. Breathing in the sea air and following the coastal paths is a deeply soothing ritual. In Ibiza, spring reveals a more secret side to the island. Unpaved roads leading to secluded coves stretch between pine trees and cliffs, and Mediterranean flora flourishes far from the summer crowds.

Cycling to the rhythm of spring

This is undoubtedly the most beautiful season for exploring by bike: the roads are quiet, the weather is gentle and the landscapes inspire meandering. Cycling through the Luberon from one village to the next, you can stop whenever the mood strikes to wander through flower-filled fields and enjoy a picnic facing the serene hills. The coastal roads along the Côte d’Azur offer dazzling vistas, with the Mediterranean opening up before you at every turn. In Ibiza, cycle around the island to reach beautiful bays and discover the island your way, with complete freedom.

Everywhere you go, movement feels natural and easy, never forced. Spring sets the tempo: move at your own pace, stop whenever you like, and enjoy the vitality that returns effortlessly.
