Terre Blanche Hotel Spa Golf Resort in Provence retained its Michelin star for Le Faventia in 2026 — a continuity win for travelers seeking luxury French dining in a resort setting (x.com). The retained star keeps the resort on the map for gourmet getaways in Provence (x.com).
Quentin André has been the restaurant’s executive chef since Le Faventia reopened on April 24, 2025, after a relaunch of the gourmet offering at Terre Blanche.

(guide.michelin.com) Le Faventia’s first Michelin star was awarded in 2023 under chef Christophe Schmitt, a milestone that established the restaurant on the regional fine-dining map. (nouvellesgastronomiques.com) The kitchen under André emphasizes Provençal terroir and seasonal sourcing, using baby vegetables from Tourves, line‑caught fish from Saint‑Raphaël and poultry from Vidauban as recurring suppliers. (guide.michelin.com) André’s menu and public statements foreground eco-responsibility and a stronger vegetal focus, a shift reported during his first season at the helm. (lechef.com) Terre Blanche is a five‑star hotel‑spa‑golf resort in Tourrettes (Var) that also promotes local partnerships such as bespoke tableware by ceramist Magali Barraja and regional credentials including the Vignobles & Découvertes label.
