Set within a gated community in Saint-Tropez, this striking villa is just a short stroll from the golden sands of Plage des Salins. Clean lines and contemporary architecture give way to light-filled interiors and laid-back luxury. There’s a sleek kitchen, inviting lounge spaces and bedrooms spread across three levels. The lucky guests in the peaceful primary suite even get their own terrace with sea views. Outside, a heated private pool and dining area make the most of sunny days. There’s also a gym tucked downstairs for morning workouts. While the design might steal the spotlight, the calm setting and easy beach access make this villa feel like a real hidden gem. You’ll be close to the action, yet blissfully removed from it all.
