Overview
In an exclusive setting in the hills behind Saint-Tropez, this outstanding villa offers sophistication and a high level of comfort on the prestigious Côte d'Azur.
As you sit out on the upper terrace with a chilled glass of local rosé, looking out towards the bay of Saint-Tropez, you will realise what a special place this is. The open-plan living space is filled with light flooding in from a terrace on either side; relax on the elegant sofas admiring the nautical theme around you. The beautiful and characterful kitchen is a chef’s dream and feasts of local delights can be served on the al-fresco dining terrace as you gaze towards the Mediterranean.
The master bedroom offers luxury not only with a sumptuous double bed but also a decadent bath where you relax with a sea-view. Three other bedrooms downstairs, all air-conditioned, offer comfort and style with their own en suite shower rooms and two with doors leading out to the beautiful pool terrace.
The heated swimming pool and surrounding decking offer a wonderful place to relax on the sun loungers or cool off in the water after a day out exploring and the sauna adds an extra touch of class. For a change of scene, wander over to the 5* luxury hotel, who manage La Nautique, and bathe in their 20m long swimming pool. You can also arrange a spa at the wellness centre and dine in their excellent restaurant with its panoramic terrace. As the day ends, enjoy a cocktail in the hotel’s bar before returning to La Nautique to gaze at the stars on a warm summer evening from your private terrace.
Only 4km from Saint-Tropez, you can be exploring the charming fishing village in no time. Discover historic gems in the old quarter, pick up some local produce in the atmospheric market or dine in one of the many upmarket restaurants including the famous Michelin starred La Vague d’Or. There are some wonderful boat trips to discover this glorious part of the French Riviera or the hotel concierge can arrange yacht hire for you for magical days out with your own skipper and crew.
Helicopter tours are another fantastic way to see the stunning landscapes of the Côte d'Azur and its incredible hinterland with trips taking you as far as Monaco and Cannes. Or you may just prefer a leisurely game of golf on one of the prestigious courses nearby, spend the day at the famous Saint Tropez Polo Club or arrange wine-tasting in an excellent winery in the vineyards near the medieval hilltop village of Gassin.
Not to mention the amazing beaches in and around the bay of Saint-Tropez, from fantastic watersports and the exclusive beach-clubs of Pampelonne to the idyllic coastal walking paths near La Croix Valmer. There’s no doubt that La Nautique is an incredible villa in a truly outstanding part of the French Riviera.

Best Suited For: All AgesThis coastline is famous for wonderful beaches, many with sand and turquoise clear waters that are lovely for children. Pampelonne beach, just south of Saint-Tropez, is undoubtedly the most famous with its exclusive beach clubs and great watersports, including jet-skiing, wakeboarding, parasailing, paddle-boarding and snorkelling.
Older teens can learn to dive around the bay (this area is known for its wreck dives) and you can also learn to sail near Saint-Tropez.
Kids will also love some of the boat trips leaving from Saint-Tropez or you could even charter a yacht and crew for a day exploring the Mediterranean and its nearby islands.
Other family activities include lovely coastal walks, cycling, horse-riding, tennis as well as paintballing and go-karting. On summer evenings families love to head down to Azur Park, only a ten-minute drive away, where there are lots of rides suitable for all ages.
Other lovely family orientated seaside towns with plenty of activities and lovely beaches include Sainte-Maxime to the north and Cavalaire-sur-Mer to the south.
