French Riviera

Mimosa Season Homebase: A New Beginning in Gold
15 – 28 February 2026
In the Heart of the French Riviera
Shared Living, Early Spring Light & Mediterranean Rhythm

Each February, the Côte d’Azur awakens in a burst of golden light as thousands of mimosa trees bloom, signaling the joyful arrival of spring. The Mediterranean air softens, café terraces open their doors again, and the Riviera’s timeless charm

returns with renewed warmth and energy.

During this exclusive Taste of Co-Living experience, we invite you to embrace the gentle rhythm of Provence, surrounded by picturesque landscapes and the camaraderie of like-hearted mature women.

Shared Days Out

Life here isn’t about sightseeing checklists — it’s about living the everyday rhythm of the Riviera together. During our co-living weeks, we’ll enjoy simple, memorable excursions that connect us more deeply to this region and its stories.

We might spend a day exploring a nearby village, sharing lunch at a small family-run vineyard, or visiting places where remarkable women shaped local history and tradition. Time together might also lead us into unexpected conversations — about how women’s lives have evolved here, and how we, too, are writing a new chapter.

Each outing is designed to be relaxed and meaningful, with space for connection, curiosity, and the joy of experiencing everyday life in a different place — together.

Lunch in Italy

During our co-living weeks, it’s easy to let curiosity guide the day — and sometimes that means crossing the nearby border into Italy for lunch. Just an hour away, the mood changes completely: the language, the light, even the pace of life.

A favourite stop is the medieval village of Dolceacqua, where a graceful 15th-century stone bridge once captured Henri Matisse’s imagination. Its quiet lanes, small artisan shops, and shaded squares create the perfect backdrop for unhurried conversations. Further along the coast, Sanremo offers another setting to share a meal together, adding yet another layer to the shared story we’re living — one that blends cultures, perspectives, and everyday pleasures. It is international living at La Joie Homebases® — a mosaic of choices.

Life at La Joie Homebase®

Our privatized Riviera Homebase is a spacious private villa designed for comfort, connection, and everyday living together.

 

It offers welcoming shared spaces for meals, conversations, and quiet moments, as well as beautifully furnished bedrooms — most with ensuite bathrooms — that balance privacy and togetherness.

 

Each room is designed to offer a sense of privacy and personal space — a place to rest, read, or recharge — while shared areas invite connection, conversation, and the easy rhythm of living together. It’s a balance that lets you enjoy community without giving up the comfort of having a space of your own.

"The food, the ambiance, the conversations—it all came together to create something magical. I am beyond grateful."

"It’s rare to feel so seen and heard—thank you for crafting an experience that truly empowers women like me."
