Hotels in Var, France

Var is a department in southeastern France along the Mediterranean, famous for the dramatic limestone cliffs of the Calanques and endless lavender fields. The climate is Mediterranean with hot summers averaging 80°F (27°C) perfect for kayaking in the turquoise coves of the Massif des Maures, while mild winters around 50°F (10°C) invite you to explore hilltop villages like Cotignac or hike the Gorges du Verdon. Spring brings blooming lavender and fewer crowds, making it ideal for cycling through the Côtes de Provence vineyards.
