Le Belvedere - Neuf Chambres Villa, Couchages 22

A one-of-a-kind residence with the most stunning views across the gulf of Saint-Tropez, Le Belvédère offers beauty and elegance just a short stroll from a charming French Riviera seaside town. 

Set in an exclusive neighbourhood of Sainte-Maxime, this villa is all about refined living in a wonderful part of the Côte d'Azur. Just step out from the salon to the sea-facing terrace and admire the glistening panorama of the Mediterranean! The décor here is chic with sophisticated furnishings whilst blue-shuttered windows frame incredible sea vistas. A luxurious cinema lounge, gym and games room add to the allure of this gorgeous abode.  

Sleeping up to 22 guests, there are nine inviting double bedrooms, most with en suite bathrooms and many with terraces and/or glorious sea-views. The most beautiful of all is the master double with doors sliding open to a vast private terrace with ample space for sunbathing, dining al-fresco or lounging with a glass of rosé on warm summer evenings.

The heated infinity swimming pool also faces the Côte d'Azur, as does the graceful and impressive poolhouse with its fully-equipped summer kitchen, dining area and lounge with open fireplace – such an enchanting place to spend time with loved ones. The landscaped gardens are just as exquisite – come across the wisteria-clad colonnade, jasmine surrounding the fountain of Neptune, a vegetable garden, fruit trees growing oranges, lemons, almonds and apricots alongside the colours and scents of the French Riviera with lavender, thyme and rosemary amidst the terraced grounds.

Just a ten-minute stroll down the hill brings you to the heart of Sainte-Maxime, a picturesque seaside town with restaurants, café terraces, a daily covered market and brilliant beaches. Boat trips from the marina will whisk you away to nearby Saint-Tropez or book a private yacht to tour this magnificent part of the coast.

Play golf at a choice of prestigious courses, partake in a wide range of summer watersports, follow walking trails through the verdant hills and visit picture-perfect hilltop villages such as Grimaud, Gassin and Ramatuelle. Head to the exclusive beach clubs of Saint-Tropez’ Plage de Pampelonne, soak up the sophisticated summer vibe of Saint-Raphaël or you could even venture to Cannes, reached in under an hour passing the landscapes of the Massif de l'Esterel.

Location:

Le Belvédère is set in an exclusive neighbourhood of Sainte-Maxime, a short stroll down the hill to the shops, restaurants and beaches of this charming French Riviera resort overlooking the gulf of Saint-Tropez.

A relaxed town compared to glitzier Saint-Tropez just across the bay, Sainte-Maxime is a lovely place to spend time, backed by beautiful hills and enjoying a sunny climate. The old town is attractive with its café and restaurant terraces which come to life on summer evenings, a daily covered market (five mornings a week in winter) and a larger market on a Thursday morning showcasing the best regional produce.

The town’s main sandy beach is next to the picturesque port and is home to a small handful of beachside restaurants whilst slightly further south is Plage de la Croisette and Sainte-Maxime’s sailing club. Just north of the town, come across the long sandy beach of Plage de la Nartelle (3km), loved especially by families and windsurfing enthusiasts or seek out the wilder shores around La Pointe des Sardinaux (3km), the last part reached only on foot and popular with snorkellers.

There are also ample opportunities for summer boat trips – Saint-Tropez is just a 20-minute ferry ride away or take a private excursion to explore this gorgeous coastline either north around Saint-Raphaël and the Esterel calanques or south towards Port Grimaud, Saint-Tropez and beyond.

Golf-lovers can play at the 18-hole Golf Blue Green Sainte-Maxime course or the prestigious Beauvallon Golf Club, both around 5km away. Other outdoor activities include wonderful walking trails in the hills, cycling, horse-riding as well as a wealth of summer watersports in or around Sainte-Maxime such as stand-up paddle boarding, sea-kayaking, pedalo hire and diving as well as wake-boarding and water-skiing.

Discover the glamour of Saint-Tropez (16km), one of the French Riviera’s most famous towns, with its boutiques, high-end restaurants and impressive marina alongside its characterful old quarter and bustling twice-weekly market at Place des Lices. If driving, combine with a trip to one of the exclusive beach clubs of Pampelonne Beach (20km) or venture to the wild shores and beautiful landscapes around La Croix Valmer, Plage de Gigaro and Plage d’Héraclée, an area also ideal for keen hikers and wine lovers.

Flower-filled Grimaud (13km) is an old Provençal village with stunning views down to the coast, a delightful spot for a gourmet lunch or just a potter around its medieval lanes. Ramatuelle (17km) and Gassin (15km) are two other picture-perfect hilltop villages in this part of the French Riviera, or visit Port-Grimaud (10km), a unique seaside town, also known as the ‘little Venice of Provence’, where you can explore its canals by boat.

Heading north, experience the French Riviera charm of Saint-Raphaël (24km) and historic Fréjus (22km) or you could even spend the day in Cannes (60km), around an hour away by car via the autoroute through the Massif de l'Esterel.
