Hotel Villa Marie | Best places to stay in Cote d'Azur
"In an idyllic setting – overlooking vineyards and Pampelonne Beach, just outside Saint-Tropez – this chic, five-star hotel makes you feel like a celebrity. Immersed in a peaceful, seven-acre park filled with parasol pines, secret gardens and a heated lagoon pool, Villa Marie’s stylish rooms and suites are surrounded by nature. The spa has quirky walls lined with seashells and uses the scents of the region – pine, rose, jasmine – while the lofty, sea-view terrace restaurant is peak Mediterranean glamour. It doesn’t come cheap, but the Villa is a sublimely romantic spot for a week or two away from the rest of the world, enjoying the Riviera high life. A free shuttle will take you into Saint-Tropez or to its best sandy beaches. " - Dana Facaros
