Retreat Details

Just under an hour from Paris, nestled on the edge of the Forest of Rambouillet, lies a stunning, fully restored 18th-century château. Surrounded by 120 acres of serene meadows and forest, it will be our elegant and peaceful home for the week.

I, Mariana, will guide you through six days of inspiration and adventure — from Paris to Versailles and into the French countryside. Our time together will be filled with creative workshops, immersive experiences, and the joy of slowing down in a magical setting.

Expect hands-on cooking classes, wine tastings, historical French hand embroidery, painting, and french ceramic instruction — all designed to spark your creativity and uncover hidden talents. In true Hibiscus style, we’ll gather on the terrace with coffee or cocktails in hand, soaking in the view and each other’s company.

This is a week of delight: craft shopping, vintage treasures, chocolate tastings, and cozy Parisian tea stops. We’ll visit our favorite local gems — from a charming ribbon shop to a tucked-away needlepoint store — and explore Parisian brocantes to uncover antique inspiration.
