St. Tropez - France

La bella vida amidst the vineyards of the Riveira

St .Tropez is synonymous with glamour, high fashion, and high life in the sense of great parties, beautiful people and an amazing setting. The town bulges with wealthy and famous visitors during summer months, with any number of bars, restaurants, fashion boutiques catering for all tastes. Outside of the peak months, the town can be enjoyed for its charming streets, great boutique shopping, lovely old port and pastel coloured houses.

In the areas surrounding the town of St. Tropez are famous and excellent beaches (all more or less crowded in the summer) and very nice towns such as Ramatuelle and Gassin. A couple of miles from the centre of St. Tropez, you will find yourself in rolling vineyards and peaceful countryside. Traffic in and out of town is horrendous at its summer peak so be advised.

This is an area for children as well as for adults. You will find yourself going into town early in the morning to the market and before there are too many people. Days will be spent by the pool or in one of the beach clubs or restaurants. Evenings will be at home on the terrace with perhaps a visit to one of the night clubs or bars for an evening refreshment. Most homes offer great privacy and dusk to dawn security is advised for all homes.
