Overlooking Port Grimaud, this modern villa exemplifies coastal living with a touch of luxury. Large rooms and minimalist living spaces give way to a sweeping garden and an infinity pool that'll delight little ones. Here you'll also have your pick of outdoor seating, with everything from an alfresco dining table to sun loungers facing the beautiful natural landscape. But we didn't pick this home just for its looks. Beach lovers will find the sandy shores of Pampelonne about fifteen minutes away. And drive to the Port of St. Tropez in ten.

Home truths:
*There's free parking available here.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*Daily cleaning is included so you have less to worry about.
*Breakfast will be delivered to this home every morning and you'll receive a welcome drink. Your host also provides a starter supply of toiletries. The nearest supermarket for stocking up is minutes away.
*The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.
