Overview
This characterful villa enjoys wonderful views of the Mediterranean and is a short walk from the pretty sheltered bay, Plage de l'Escalet, just over a 10-minute drive from Saint-Tropez’ iconic Plage de Pampelonne.
In a hillside setting, Mer Vue features various terraces taking advantage of the beautiful sea vistas. The charming lounge and open-plan kitchen have French windows leading out to the covered terrace for al-fresco dining and lounging, making the most of the picturesque surroundings. The heated swimming pool is perfect for warm summer days whilst the lavender and Mediterranean plants add to the tranquil ambience.
Mer Vue benefits from air-conditioning throughout alongside other modern touches including Wi-Fi, Satellite TV and the all-important espresso machine. There are four inviting bedrooms across two floors, allowing the villa to sleep up to 8 guests, each one with its own en suite bathroom.
Walk down the hill towards the gorgeous bay, ideal for swimming and snorkelling, or the more adventurous can follow the coastal hiking path towards Cap Taillat passing yet more idyllic coves en route. In just over 5km you can be in the heart of historic Ramatuelle, a hilltop village with bougainvillea-clad houses, little art galleries and restaurant terraces.
The southern end of Plage de Pampelonne is just over a 10-minute drive away – the long sandy beach is loved for its beachside restaurants, exclusive beach clubs and watersport activities.
You may prefer to spend your time exploring Saint-Tropez, touring the French Riviera by boat, visiting the vineyards of La Croix Valmer, walking by the coast from Plage de Gigaro or venturing to yet more perched villages for sweeping views of the Côte d’Azur.

Location
About the surrounding area of Mer VueMer Vue is in a hillside setting above the beautiful Plage de l'Escalet, around 6km from the southern-most point of Plage de Pampelonne and 11km from Saint-Tropez.
It’s a short walk down the hill to Plage de l'Escalet, a pretty sheltered bay with clear water ideal for snorkelling and swimming. A coastal hiking path leads past small coves and beautiful Mediterranean nature towards Cap Taillat for yet more incredible scenery.
The nearest village is hilltop Ramatuelle (5.5km) with its narrow cobbled lanes, bougainvillea-clad houses, restaurant terraces, little art galleries and impressive 16th century church.
Bypassing the village, there are summer beachside restaurants along Plage de Pampelonne, just over a 10-minute drive away, including some of Saint Tropez’ most prestigious beach clubs. The 5km long sandy shores of Plage de Pampelonne are also known for seasonal watersports – look out for stand-up paddle boarding, kayaks, and pedal boats alongside jet-skiing and windsurfing.
Take time to experience Saint-Tropez (11km), a former fishing village with colourful houses and a medieval warren of narrow lanes with boutiques, bars, high-end restaurants and café terraces as well as the vibrant twice-weekly market at Place des Lices. Boat trips depart Saint-Tropez for tours of the French Riviera coast or pick up a ferry towards Port Grimaud and Sainte-Maxime.
Other picture-perfect villages include hilltop Grimaud (19km) and Gassin (11km), both enjoying sweeping views of Saint-Tropez bay. Take time to drive to La Croix Valmer and its wonderful vineyards, close to one of the region’s most idyllic beaches, Plage de Gigaro (12.5km) and yet more opportunities for coastal walks.
