Premier vacation apartments
Château la Tour Apollinaire, Templar Suite. Exceptional family luxury suite on two floors with fully equipped kitchen, grand salon, 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and spectacular private terrace. The château was named for Picasso's best friend Guillaume Apollinaire.

Now the splendid secret chapel is revealed and restored. 12 minutes from the white sand beach at Canet.
Staying at Château La Tour Apollinaire means enjoying a unique setting, a half-hectare garden with many exotic plants, a beautiful swimming pool (available June - October, unheated) and modern apartments, all in a Belle Époque château.
