In 1780, the Châteauneuf family, from Nans les Pins, built this superb property now converted into a lovely first class hotel. The owner of this domain and surrounding land, Louis-Maurice Châteauneuf, was a close friend of Barras, a member of the Directoire during the French Revolution. At Barras’ request, in 1794, Bonaparte’s family were guests at Chateauneuf whilst the latter was distinguishing himself during the siege of Toulon.
Jean-Antoine Châteauneuf from la Ciotat succeeded him until 1825, followed by Honoré-Antoine Châteauneuf from Nans les Pins. In 1858, Casimir Carles, a clerk in Paris and the nephew of Honoré-Antoine, inherited the property and became the new Landlord. He added his uncle’s name to his own to perpetuate his uncle’s memory and was called Casimir Carles Châteauneuf.
In 1919, Casimir Carles Châteauneuf sold the Domaine to a lawyer from Marseilles, Mr. Blanc. The latter in turn sold the property in 1926 to Fernand Malet, a cake maker in Toulon. Fernand Malet turned the château into a charming hotel, which has become renowned in the area.
In 1968, his son Jacques Malet inherited the hotel. He refurbished the Domaine into a first class hotel to keep up with its longstanding reputation. Jeanne Malet, his wife, carried on in the same spirit until her death in 1998.
This luxurious XVIIIth century mansion, set in the shade of century old trees inside the Golf de la Sainte Baume, became the property of Open Golf Club, already owner of the golf course. Open Golf Club fully renovated it in 1999-2000 in a spirit of subtle elegance allowing you to enjoy the unforgettable charms of the Provençal way of life. |
