Villa Medjé

Chez
Pénélope Comet

From Villa Medjé, a villa reinvented by Pénélope Comet with pastel colors and 1950s design, Marseille reveals itself and can be savored, with the Prophète beach just a stone's throw away.

The sea, the big blue seen from above. In the distance, the Baie des Singes, the Frioul islands, the Château d'If, Île Gaby, and Planier. From this 19th-century villa, completely revamped by the Apogée architecture studio and architect Lola Garcia, and given a boost with elegant pastel shades of banana, marshmallow, jade, and mint, Marseille reveals itself. In its half-moon garden with outdoor kitchen, XS pool, and drying laundry, Marseille hides away. With Pénélope Comet, who designed Villa Medjé and regularly organizes arty, gourmet gatherings there, Marseille is a delight. A free-spirited house, where antiques from the fifties take pride of place. And for an early morning dip, the Prophète beach is just a stone's throw away!

3 good reasons to go

  1. because it reveals a Marseille full of wit, spirit, and color
  2. because the sea is just a stone's throw away
  3. because it offers a respite from the hustle and bustle of the Old Port
