Chateau Delice

Welcome to Chateau Delice, a glorious estate set in the hills next to La Quinta. This property combines the grandeur of a traditional French estate with a vibrant Spanish flair, offering an exquisite blend of luxury and tranquility.

When approaching the property, the scene is painted from the offset: you’ll find yourself surrounded by enchanting trees and blooming bushes as you drive up to the estate along a peaceful, secluded driveway. As you enter through the grand metal gates, you are greeted by a pristine padel court and a charming seating area surrounded by mature lemon and orange trees, creating a lively yet peaceful atmosphere from the get-go.

Chateau Delice continues to impress with an elegant porte-cochère providing shaded parking for four vehicles and ample additional parking for large gatherings. To the right, a picturesque walking path under flourishing orange trees invites leisurely strolls, while a nearby secluded pergola adorned with a hidden statue offers a quiet retreat.

The pathway leads through an impressive arch and bell tower, marking the transition to the more private spaces of the estate. The lush, manicured gardens, dotted with statues and more fruit trees, guide you to the grand residence. Here, a stately balcony on the second floor hints at the expansive views from the upper levels, while the majestic entrance door opens to reveal the refined interior.

Main House
Inside, the grand foyer presents an atmosphere of opulence and warmth. A sweeping staircase leads to the upper floors, while the expansive living room with plush seating and an open fireplace invites relaxation. Large terrace doors extend the living space outdoors, enhancing the ambiance with glorious views of the garden and pool nearby.

The grand kitchen, designed as a social hub, features a vast island, professional-grade appliances, a pantry for dry goods, and a rustic table for informal dining that comfortably seats 10 but can host more if needed. Adjacent glass doors open to an additional outdoor dining area capable of hosting 12 people, perfect for alfresco meals next to a soothing fountain and provençal herbal garden, adding beautifully to the French-inspired architecture and ambience exuded by the estate.

Returning to the foyer of this stunning French-inspired mansion, a fittingly grand staircase, bathed in natural light from an iconic circular window, guides you to the upper level. On this floor, the master suite offers a sanctuary of luxury with an ensuite, spa-style bathroom featuring dual sinks, a beautiful French bathtub, and a spacious shower, as well as vaulted ceilings and a desk in the bedroom, and a beautiful balcony overlooking the pool and garden. The expansive walk-in wardrobe allows guests to bring clothes galore, while two more generously sized bedrooms on this level each feature ensuite bathrooms and provide unique charm.

Exterior Appointments
Returning outside, a short stroll from the kitchen terrace takes you to the plaza, an additional outdoor communal area. This enchanting recess features a spectacular dining table beneath a pergola, a barbecue grill, and a lounge area, perfect for social gatherings under the evening sun. The studio building opens onto the plaza and houses two more guest bedrooms that share a large bathroom with dual sinks and a shower.

Ascending a few stairs takes guests to a third outhouse, where another bedroom with an ensuite bathroom offers privacy and a unique vantage point over the estate.

The media room, with vaulted ceilings and an open fireplace, provides a cozy space for movie nights, with twin sofas and an 82-inch TV making it the perfect setting. This multifunctional space can also be used for daytime reading, having a break from the sun, or playing one of the board games that live on the bookshelf. Connected to the media room by a short corridor, another enchanting bedroom with an ensuite bathroom can be discovered. This suite features a king-sized bed, another open fireplace next to a work desk, and floor-to-ceiling French windows that extend the bedroom onto a cozy balcony, offering guests spectacular garden views.

When descending the stairs from the plaza, you pass by the quarters of the live-in maid, who is on hand to service the property daily. Upon arrival at the foot of the stairs, you are greeted by a separate part of the garden that encases additional guest accommodation, located underneath the media room. The first of three bedrooms boasts a beautiful glass wall that faces the garden, blending the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. The second and third bedrooms are interconnected, ideal for families or guests who prefer a more connected living arrangement. The third bedroom also features a kitchenette and two beautiful windows overlooking the grounds of the property, providing functionality and convenience.

The outdoor offerings do not stop there and invite further exploration with a vast saltwater pool that spans 8×16 metres and is surrounded by luxury sun beds and a picturesque pergola adorned with white flowers and green leaves. Taking a few steps across the garden brings about an encounter with the fifth and final building encompassed by the estate. For those wanting to exercise, this structure contains a workout room with gym equipment, perfect for yoga, meditation, functional and cardio workouts, and any other wellness activities guests desire.

This comprehensive estate offers a seamless blend of luxury and tranquility in a truly unique setting, ensuring every moment spent here is one of comfort, elegance, and unforgettable beauty.
