A retreat Sanctuary in Provence

In the sacred cradle of Provence, where the earth hums with ancient songs and the light carries whispers of forgotten wisdom, Le Mas Méjean is a retreat sanctuary that suspends its guests in an experience of beauty, transcending the journey of healing like no other. On this land exists a force that envelops you, drawing you deep into the grace of transformation.

As you walk upon this ancient ground, the memories of the sacred waters of Glanum will whisper the path back to the divine thread of your life.

This house, the echo of my childhood, holds the heartbeat of my family’s story – a tapestry woven from countless journeys to discover beauty in distant lands. Each room and artefact carries the essence of our travels, imbued with love, history, and the magic of our shared experiences.

Presentation

A retreat born from the whispered memories of sacred waters

Nestled in the famously beloved village of Saint-Rémy de provence, Mas Méjean is a hidden gem – precious, authentic and full of life. This traditional farmhouse, rooted in the ancient stories of a celtic water temple, is embraced by a magnificient garden and a vibrant, welcoming home.

The 350 year old plane tree stands proudly, watching over the south facade and casting its magical shade in summer ; it is the revered “grandfather” of the land.

The walls of the Mas, 50 cm thick, are built from the stones of Les-Baux-de-Provence, a distinctive, soft limestone with a warm, golden hue. Beyond their beauty, these ancient walls provide a profound sense of safety and protection, their solid grounding presence offering a deep connection to the land and its timeless embrace.

A flowing stream and the chorus of countless birds weave the rhythm of each day, fostering a profound connection to nature and the whole.

In winter, the immense chimney becomes the heart of the home, where gatherings have taken place for centuries. The memories of abundant love and joy linger, ever present in its enduring warmth.

Once a barn, the living room now serves as a heart of creativity, spanning 60 square meeters. It opens to the gardens, offering breathtaking views that inspire both tranquility and imagination.

Legend tells of a sacred source beneath the garden, once flowing through a water temple tended by three priestesses. These waters carried the prophecy of the healing temple. Though the temple is gone, the stream still whispers its ancient song.

The Surroundings

Le Mas Méjean is within walking distance of Saint-Rémy de Provence, steeped in Celtic, Greek and Romain lineage, a rich agricultural heritage and artistic flamboyance in the 70s. It lay at the foothills of the stunning Alpilles mountains, where the original sacred water streams come from. Saint-Rémy has been a crossroads of cultures for centuries, offering abundant resources to enrich any retreat program.

Outdoor oasis : With a 4500 sq.m majestic garden created in the 60’s offering a natural oasis for relaxation and reflections.

Sacred energy of the land : Glanum – Glanis and the Glanicaes

Glanum, with Celtic origins from the 6th – 3rd centuries BCE, was established by the salyes for its sacred springs. Over time, it evolved from a Greek settlement to a Roman oppidum. When Saint-Rémy was later built over its ruins, upon discovering ancient remains, many homeowners chose to remain silent to avoid construction disruption. They left the memory of the stone untouched.

The land where the mas now stands is said to have once been a water temple dedicated to the healing waters flowing from the Alpilles. According to a story, three priestesses’ souls remained bound to the land until 2023.

Here, every stone hums with ancient memory ; every tree whispers wisdom, and the land pulses with a sacred rhythm – an eternal presence of grace, power and healing.

"I recently had the pleasure of attending a retreat in La Vie En Rose, and it is hard to put into words the magnitude of this experience. It was pure divinity from the moment I set foot on the property. The careful consideration and attention to detail in every aspect of this home were breathtaking. The staff provided another layer of connection, love, care and joy. So homely. The space set the tone for our week-long retreat of sacred growth in the most wholesome way. I'll be forever grateful for this opportunity."

"Beloved La Vie en Rose, thank you for nourishing me so deeply during my time in India.
From the trusted driver and warm welcome in the middle of the night to the beautiful room where I felt instantly safe and rested, everything felt dreamlike. The gardens, flowers, animals, elegant pool and yoga shala created a space of beauty and peace. Every meal was prepared with such love and care.
In only 7 days my body, mind and heart felt transformed, even my eczema almost healed.
My soul came alive on this sacred land. The kindness and beauty of La Vie en Rose will stay with me forever ❤️."

"My first time in India was for a retreat at La Vie En Rose and what an introduction to the beauty of India.
The space is majestic, crafted with incredible attention and intention. Every detail, from the pool and yoga shala to the lush gardens and open living spaces, feels artistic yet deeply welcoming.
The staff cared for us beautifully with chai, fresh juices and meals from a private chef. I felt held, pampered and supported through deep inner work. I left captivated by this space and country and cannot wait to return to La Vie En Rose."

"Everything and everyone in La Vie en Rose beams with light; Suja's smile, the swift movements of the cooks in the kitchen, the chickens wandering around, the new puppies, all the people that made sure we are comfortable…
I felt so much love in La Vie en Rose, the energy was holding us so we could connect with each other, with the nature around, with India - in a wonderful way. The conversations and life itself is flowing… in the house, the rooms, the Shala, in the garden and in the pool. What a magical place ✨"

Mayra Alondra Velázquez

Breathwork Facilitator, USA

"I feel extremely lucky to have experienced India through the retreat at La Vie en Rose.
The retreat was a beautiful mix of cultural engagements, workshops , down time , and time for self reflection. Everything starting from the team at the house (whom are kind, generous, and lovely humans ), to the beautiful decor, to the landscape that invites a natural set up for a calm and relaxing retreat.
It was the perfect mixture to being out in the rich and vibrant Indian culture.
This retreat has cultivated a seed in me to want to experience and explore more of India . Even more , my eyes have been opened to feeling the value of providing workshops were women can step outside of their comfort zone to grow, explore, and experience the depth of their soul through rich cultural environments creating unmeasured connections.

Dr Ricci-Jane Adams

Founder of the Institute for Intuitive Intelligence®, Australia

"In November 2024, I facilitated a retreat for a group of 12 at La Vie En Rose near Pondicherry. The beautiful space, formerly the home of Agathe Lazaro and her family, provided everything we needed for an exceptional 8-day retreat.
In addition to hiring the venue, I engaged Agathe's services as a Retreat Coordinator. In this role, Agathe lived in residence with our group and provided hands-on, bespoke support to attend to every need. Agathe acted as our cultural liaison, arranging experiences not accessible without Agathe's intimate connection to the community in this area. Agathe was our cultural ambassador, and her vast knowledge and experience ensured we had a one-of-a-kind experience.
Agathe and her team, including manager Suja, worked tirelessly to meet our every need. Most of her staff have been in her service for decades, and there was warmth and generosity from everyone who supported us.
La Vie En Rose is a magnificent space, with a dedicated shala separate from the main house for our workshops and yoga practice. The large living space with floor-to-ceiling windows that open all the way to the lush gardens offered a sense of connection to the quiet and calming land. Private and secluded, yet close to Pondicherry, the venue is an ideal location. The grounds are sublime, and the divine pool was a particular favourite.
I am forever grateful for the life-changing experience provided by Agathe, her team and the home itself."

“Agathe’s place was magical.
Surrounded by lush gardens, it is a beautifully curated tropical paradise.

The house and meditation space themselves are so stunning, and every piece and decoration is placed just so.

There is something about being in beautiful spaces that just makes you relax. Walking down that epic staircase every morning and taking your chai by the pool makes you feel like royalty.

Agathe has created something truly special with La Ve en Rose.
And the food !! I still dream about the food…”

"One of the standout aspects of my stay with Agathe was the exceptional staff—they were warm and attentive, and went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. The food was delicious, adding to the sense of comfort and care.

Being my first time in India, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. The attention to detail and thoughtful planning made me feel completely at home. I highly recommend this beautiful, well-maintained space for anyone seeking the perfect retreat location. I’m already looking forward to returning!”

"Agathe created a fun and enlightening session, one in which we accessed deeper states of self-awareness as well as practical steps to bring our vision of a creative space to life. Every detail of the experience was sublime, and Agathe guided the group through a transformative journey. What sets Agathe apart is her ability to inspire us to dare to dream bigger, refusing to let us settle for the limited visions our beliefs might impose. It was truly inspiring, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed bringing the dream into manifestation over these past few months. Thank you, Agathe !"

"I recently had the absolute honour of spending a week on retreat at La Vie En Rose in South India, and it was magical. The home felt like an oasis—so welcoming, comfortable, and stunning. Every little detail had been thought through, and the lush environment added an extra layer of tranquillity to the experience.
Agathe and her team took such great care of us. The food was divine—full of flavour and made with love—and the accommodations were so comfortable and inviting it was easy to settle in and feel at home. The space is so versatile, whether you want a quiet moment to yourself or to connect with others. One of my favourite parts was the beautiful meditation studio, where Agathe led us through an inspirational and expansive meditation that really stayed with me."

Agathe Lazaro

For as long as I can remember, I have felt the living intelligence of spaces — the way a room breathes, holds, or quietly restores.

The Mas Méjean is my childhood home — and the most natural culmination of a lifelong inquiry into how space, inner state, and beauty conspire to return us to ourselves.

For decades, I have worked at the intersection of art, design, and the body’s own intelligence, developing a body of work that now finds its fullest expression here.

This is a sanctuary designed with one intention: to suspend you in Grace, so you return to yourself and remember.
