This Isn't a Wellness Retreat (And that's the point.)

We're for women who'd rather raise a glass than hold a plank or chant in a yurt.

When people hear the word "retreat," they often think of green juice, silent mornings, yoga mats at sunrise, and detox diets. And while that works for some, it's not the Maison d'Amies experience. We’re not here to cleanse. We’re here to connect.
Maison d'Amies was built for women who want a different kind of escape. One that feels more like a dreamy French girls' trip and less like a structured self-help syllabus. Our retreats are about indulgence, curiosity, laughter, and the kind of magic that happens when you put the right women in the right place at the right time.
We don’t ask you to wake up early (unless you want to). We don’t enforce juice cleanses. You won’t find a packed itinerary full of back-to-back workshops. Instead, you’ll find long, leisurely lunches on sun-drenched patios, quiet morning coffee with a view, strolls through local markets, and evenings filled with wine, stories, and maybe a little dancing.
Our retreats are hosted in some of the most charming and luxurious homes in France, carefully selected to feel like a haven—not a hotel. We partner with local chefs, guides, and artisans who help us explore the region in the most delicious and authentic ways. From private wine tastings in Provence to chef-prepared dinners under the stars, every detail is chosen with care (and maybe a little cheese).

And perhaps most importantly, we’ve created space for you to be exactly who you are. You can nap. You can wander. You can read a book in peace or laugh with your new travel besties for hours. There’s no pressure to "transform" or "optimize" your life. Just room to breathe, enjoy, and be.
But don’t just take our word for it:
"This retreat was next level. I didn’t have to lift a finger, everything was handled so I could just enjoy my trip. The balance of structure and free time was perfect, the food was unreal, and the company? Incredible. If you’re on the fence, just book it, you defiantly won’t regret it." –Sarah T.
Worried about booking? You’re not alone. We know committing to a trip can feel like a big decision—especially if you’re coming solo, haven’t been to France before, or just haven’t traveled in a while. But that’s exactly why Maison d’Amies exists. We handle everything so you can travel stress-free. Most of our guests come solo and leave with lifelong friends. You don’t need to know French or plan a thing—we’ve got you.
Booking is easy. To reserve your space, all you need is a deposit. We also offer flexible payment plans to make it easier to say yes to the trip you’ve been dreaming about.
So no, Maison d’Amies isn't a wellness retreat. It's something better.
It's a celebration of friendship, flavor, freedom, and France.
And we’d love for you to join us.
