Saint-Tropez, invariably synonymous with carefree summer living. Here, the mood is always sunny and light. With your skin still salty and leather sandals on your feet, you stroll through the narrow streets of ultra-chic boutiques and trendy pop-ups. We can't get enough of the light, golden during the day and pink-orange in the evening, or of the markets where you can pick up the wonders of baskets and hats whose straw scents make us love summer. You can indulge in the creamy sweetness of a slice of tarte tropézienne, crunched on the port, while admiring the canvases of the painters who come to exhibit every day. Of course, we also take the time to enjoy a coffee on the terrace, admiring the oversized boats and the passage of time without a care in the world, or watching the sun go down. And when we feel like retiring, we head off in our Mehari, hair blowing in the wind, to Villa Marie Saint-Tropez. There, high above the Bay of Pampelonne, this bohemian boutique hotel is the perfect place to enjoy the calm and freshness of the Mediterranean. The perfect address for nostalgic aesthetes looking to relax and recharge their batteries. Villa Marie Saint-Tropez is a place where everything that makes Saint-Tropez so appealing is cultivated with flair and uniqueness, like so many memories of childhood and summer.
The décor, with its ochre walls, gardens and stone basins featuring columns and cypress trees, and tangerine and coral lounges featuring patinated or vintage period furniture, shell frescoes and antique objects, expresses the beauty of the South with relaxed elegance. While some enjoy a taste of Italy and the Mediterranean in the Dolce Vita restaurant, or sip a cocktail on the terrace overlooking the sea, others prefer the tranquility of sunbathing in the bean-shaped swimming pool set into the rock face. Wherever you are, the view unfolds over the pine forest, the citrus gardens studded with rose bushes and the infinite blue. The freshness of the gardens and the sea breeze, the scent of orange blossom and roses, or the spa with its turquoise walls adorned with mother-of-pearl shells, where the treatments and fragrances of the South will win you over with a sense of sweet privilege. Unless you simply prefer the refined tranquillity of your room or suite. 5-star relaxation in Saint-Tropez.
Pampelonne Bay
La Vue
Simply magical. Overlooking the Bay of Pampelonne, it opens onto the sea and the ultramarine-blue horizon, with glimpses of the Capes Taillat and Camarat and the resolutely azure sky. All of this is hemmed in with green, in the heart of a four-hectare pine forest. An immersion in color, spring and summer alike.
Le Calme
Hearing
There's no doubt that you'll appreciate the peace and quiet, the rustle of the wind in the pines, the whisper of the water running over the rocks lining the pool, making the rock sparkle, and the tranquility of the pools and rose gardens. And let's not forget the song of the cicadas in the heart of summer, an indisputable synonym for idleness.
The Mediterranean
The sense of smell
It's an unadulterated pleasure to smell the fragrance of rose and citrus gardens, mixed with orange blossom, jasmine and the scent of pine during the day, and the rising breeze in the evening, laden with iodized sea spray. This is the Mediterranean in all its radiance and generosity.
Dolce Vita
Taste
At Le Dolce Vita, you can munch on the best of Italy and the Mediterranean, such as spaghetti con crudo di gamberoni. And to quench your thirst, we continue to explore the taste of the Botte with perfectly mastered cocktails: Negroni, Spritz, Bellini... Delizioso!
Pure Altitude Spa
Touch
Enjoy a "Gourmandise du Sud" treatment in the spa's pearly decor, with walls adorned with shells and accented with turquoise. An ultra-gentle, refreshing treatment that begins with a light scrub with sugar crystals, malachite and hazelnut oil, followed by a creamy jasmine and honey wrap. Soothing, it leaves skin moisturized and soft. Divine as an after-sun treatment.
