The 5 stars ***** LUX* Marseillan hotel
The 5-star hotel operated by the global brand LUX* Resorts & Hotels is an invitation to celebrate life and make each moment matter. The group’s high level of excellence brings holiday experience to new heights. Everything is designed to surprise and delight guests with creative details that make the ordinary truly extraordinary…
It is the first LUX* property in France and is truly one-of-a-kind. With an inspirational line-up of bars and restaurants, the infinity pool overlooking the sea and an extensive spa inspired by principles of integrated wellness, the hotel will set a new benchmark in hospitality in the region and welcomes guests from sunrise until late into the night.
Overlooking the Thau basin, the vineyard estate of LUX* Marseillan extends across 6.2 hectares of prime seafront land – with the gradual slope ensuring that owners share in the breathtaking panoramic views of the Étang de Thau lagoon and oyster tables beyond. Take in lush gardens, sample local vineyards and experience the real south of France – all without ever leaving home.
With a fountain as its centre, the village square is a place to convene or retreat, play a round of pétanque or just watch the world go by. Dine or shop in a traditional French market town setting with the freshest local fare from seasonal fruits, meats, cheeses and of course – wine and oysters. Or simply enjoy a coffee and freshly baked croissant with the morning papers.
It is no coincidence that we have chosen to open the first LUX* Resorts & Hotels in Europe, in the South of France, in Marseillan. Naturally, we have fallen under the spell of this small Mediterranean port, its lifestyle, its wild beaches, the Thau basin, its oysters, its vineyards…

Resort amenities
A feast for the senses
LUX* knows that whilst on holiday, the greatest luxury in dining is choice. From bountiful breakfasts to destination dining and everything in between, LUX* Marseillan showcases the very best of our neighbourhood. Add to the mix a few things that might surprise you, and this is truly a feast for all the senses – from sunrise through to long after the sun has set.
NIKKEY and The Smoke House
Introducing NIKKEY, the signature restaurant at LUX* Marseillan. Here, the cuisine is infused with the essence of Peru and Japan, and is presented in an intimate and exclusive setting. Or choose to dine at the main restaurant, The Smoke House – where the finest meats are marinated for hours and slow cooked overnight.
Wine tasting
In a region famous for its wine, 20 hectares of rolling vineyards neighbour the LUX* Marseillan estate – and with a further hectare placed directly in front of the resort, this is truly a seafront vineyard estate. Owners will enjoy cases from each harvest, invitations to tastings and masterclasses. 90% of oysters farmed in the Mediterranean are sourced right here, and are renowned as the best in France. Add them together and you have a recipe for unadulterated pleasure.
Lux* me spa
Developed by experts within their field and presented in an unrivalled setting, the spa features a stunning outdoor pool, hot and cold bathing experiences, a juice bar, Zen relaxation area, cutting edge gym and an outdoor exercise platform. Treatments are courtesy of the LUX* Me range of essential oils, created in partnership with world-renowned aromatherapist Shirley Page.
Fitness club
Gone are the days when a holiday at a beach resort was incompatible with sticking to your fitness routine. Remember those gloomy forgotten gyms where only a handful of hardcore fitness enthusiasts dared work out ? Yeah, we don’t miss those either. With wellness taking centre-stage, we designed a truly stunning and modern fitness space with a curated selection of gym equipment. The space screams high-energy and cutting-edge in its design.
Kids club play
Kids club play is a fun, exciting kids club for guests aged 3 to 12. Open until 10pm, it’s jam-packed with features to keep your little ones busy: there’s a splash pool, an outdoor culinary school with entertaining hands-on sessions, an interactive buffet station, an e-zone, a reading corner and a quiet zone. Fun-loving and full of energy, the resort’s qualified team members run activities to introduce children to the Étang de Thau lagoon’s nature and culture.
