    Beautiful gardens! We visited in the winter and the wattle (mimosa) was in full bloom. Coming from Australia, this reminded me of home. Be sure to stop for a bite at the café.

    I passed one morning in this beautiful garden. A bit hard to find but finally I got there. It is not too big, but it is worth a visit for the beautiful panorama and plants it offers. If you want to pass an alternative day on the french riviera in a botanical garden, go there.

    Heaven on Earth. Remarkable gardens set along a remarkable coast. We visited in late summer and loved to see the garden lush and full. The fauna and structures were interesting and added to the beauty of the gardens. Could have easily spend an entire day, but 2.5 hours was sufficient if you're on vacation with a full schedule.

    A gem of a place. If you are interested in plants and trees from around the world, especially ones you won't see at home (for us the UK), then this is the place for you. And even if you are not a plant person, this is a very enjoyable and fun experience, with lots of secret paths to explore. The icing on the cake was the snorkeling off the private beach which gives you the chance to see so many different species of fish in a cordoned off area. Many thanks to Audrey for her excellent knowledge, patience and friendliness. And to Caroline on reception too.

    Stunning views on the vivid blue waters of the Mediterranean. The smell of Pine and Eucalyptus makes this garden a must visit while in the South of France. There are plants from all around the world for example Bamboos, and lots of local plants such as the nice yellow coloured Mimosa.

    Very interesting and unusual garden with a variety of local coastal Provence plants with very interesting examples of plants from across the world that are suitable to the Cotes d'Azure climate. A good half day of leisurely wandering.

    Great little find on the way along the coast road. The view of the sea are amazing. The organised chaos of the gardens is unusual but the concept of plants from around the world that thrive in a Mediterranean climate is interesting. Great time spent here. Well worth a visit

    Beautiful place in a very unspoilt spot. You can easily spend the whole day here, it has a great shop and coffee shop too. €12 for adults but well worth it if you like relaxing and horticulture.
