Amazing experience and stay. The owner of the property was extremely helpful and friendly. They treated me like they knew me for a long time right away. Bed was comfortable. The ferry is about 7 min walk from the property and is a very easy and safe access to Saint Tropez. I can only recommend this hotel if you want to stay nearby Saint Tropez.

The stay was lovely. We were so excited about the AC since we’re from Southern California. The staff was so helpful. Gave us the best recommendations and helped us navigate where to go and when. Sadly, our time was only for one day and night. Encourage you to stay here on your trip going south or north.

Woah! Amazing hotel. My partner and I stayed for 2 nights, beautiful. Gervais and his partner were wonderful hosts. The bedroom, breakfast in the courtyard were lovely. I can’t believe it was only 3 star! Location is perfect for St Maxim and St Tropez (ferry port, 15 mins). We fell in love with Chardon Bleu! Valle the black Labrador was also the best surprise
