Adrien Feltz and his partner Alexia Courtois embark on a new hospitality adventure with the unveiling of Domaine les Terres Bleues, a preserved haven spanning 1 hectare in the heart of the Vallée des Lacs (Vosges), designed as an ode to contemplation and relaxation.
“We wanted to create a place that brings together everything we dream of finding during our own getaways as a couple — a space where every detail invites relaxation and intimacy” the couple shares.
Designed by architect Gérald Klauss and brought to life by the Decobois company, the property consists of two prestigious chalets, each accommodating two guests. Fully oriented outward to provide a constant connection with the surrounding nature, they combine noble materials, clean lines, and large bay windows, creating perfect harmony between the indoors and outdoors. Each chalet features a private 50m2 south-facing terrace with a jacuzzi, a cozy living area with a wood-burning fireplace, a freestanding bathtub, a sensory shower, and a king-size bed.
An ideal getawat to recharge and reconnect
This is the promise of a unique experience where luxury meets simplicity and authenticity. Eacg stay becomes an invitation to slow down, refocus, and savor the present moment. The property features an outdoor pool (heated from May to October), a mirror sauna nestled in the forest, a natural spring water bath, personalized treatments and massages by experienced practitioners, wellness activities (yoga, meditation, and sophrology sessions), and outdoor adventures (guided hikes, mountain bike rides, countryside picnics, and wildlife observation).
A rich territory, alive through the seasons
Nestled in the heart of the Vosges, nature lovers will be enchanted by the diversity of the landscapes, where deer, hinds, and foxes often make appearances. Gérardmer, the jewel of the Vosges, is home to the region’s largest natural lake, of glacial origin and situated at an altitude of 660m. Nicknamed the “lake of a thousand reflections,” it’s just a few minutes from the estate, with a well-marked 6 km walking trail allowing visitors to take in its full beauty. The town is also renowned for its Fantastic Film Festival, the Daffodil Festival (a bi-annual spring event), and the richness of its natural spaces.
In winter, the ski resorts of Gérardmer and La Bresse (the largest in Eastern France) are just a 10-minute drive away. The scenic Route des Crêtes, accessible by car or bike, offers breathtaking panoramas of the Vosges mountains, valleys, and lakes.
Domaine les Terres Bleues is located just a short distance from Alsace, 45 minutes from Colmar — the perfect opportunity to explore charming Alsatian villages and wander the vineyard trails to taste local wines.
