Château de Valmer Hotel, La Croix-Valmer

Celebrating the art of well-being is what life at this elegant 19th century manor house is all about. While set in the most scenic landscape, well away from the urban bustle, this lush retreat is separated from the glitzy beach clubs of Pampelonne by just one hill. The rooms radiate Provençal charm, and the bar with its own library would probably have a tale to tell if it could talk. The sprawling garden complex that surrounds the boutique hotel offers many little retreats amongst the old-growth trees, and between the trunks of century-old palm trees you will glimpse the deep blue. So put on your flip flops and stroll through the palm tree grove down to the hotel's private sandy beach to lollygag the day away in style. Just kick back with a glass of rosé in your hand and sand between your toes, and watch the sun set. Beware, though, it will make you postpone the planned trip to Saint-Tropez until day after tomorrow.
Price range €€
Fancy green or blue? This place features both in abundance. While residing in a vast garden complex with a view of the vineyards, the private beach on Gigaro Bay is just walk through the palm grove away.
The bathrooms, while new, are a bit cramped.
