Lap up all the luxury of the French Riviera from your private garden and pool at La Reserve Ramatuelle St Tropez.
THE LOW DOWN
There are many stylish European islands to hop to during the summer but none quite like St Tropez. The warm weather attracts movers and shakers from around the world who, if not staying on their yacht, stay at La Reserve Ramatuelle. The enormous property sits on top of a mountain in the town of Ramatuelle and overlooks the stunning Mediterranean. The five-star haven is just minutes away from the city centre, beach clubs (and beach itself), so you’re never too far away from the party.
THE ROOMS
There are nine rooms and 19 suites each with a fragrant garden or south-facing terrace. Each room boasts living areas, floor-to-ceiling windows, marble bathrooms and the best (bespoke) hotel beauty products ever.
DÉCOR
The hotel is everything you want for the perfect beach getaway. Clean lines, open spaces with windows and doors that bring the outside in, this Jean-Michel Wilmotte masterpiece is serene luxury at its best.
THE SPA
Whatever you wish to achieve with your mind or body can be done here. Massages to relax, body treatments to revive your skin or weight loss programmes to shift some extra kilos can be done in the confines (and privacy) of this luxurious spa. You also don’t have to miss out on your daily Pilates or yoga class as these can be booked in, too.
THE VILLAS
If you’re travelling with your family or a group of friends, the classic, provincial-style villas at La Reserve Ramatuelle are your only option. Huge living areas and palatial pools all set in a private garden, offer the perfect place to entertain or chill out depending on your mood. The hotel also provides a butler and maid service to entertain any whim you may have from a garden BBQ to looking after your little ones.
STYLISH EATS
Whether you’re eating al fresco in the hotel’s restaurant, on your balcony or by the pool, you can guarantee you’ll be dining on only the freshest and finest food in town. Bad fats are banned on the Mediterranean menu. Only the best olive oils are used and white sugar is replaced with brown. Most of the herbs and spices used in the delicious recipes are grown in the organic garden along with the fruit and vegetables. You can eat off the menu to your heart’s content, and still feel good in your bikini the next day – this is a promise.
EXTRAS
• A shuttle bus is available to take you into ‘town’ – you
• just need to call the concierge and they will arrange it. The concierge can also arrange any restaurant, beach club or leisure booking (hiring a yacht, helicopter etc). There is also an amazing champagne bar on the property, open during the summer with the best views to enjoy the sunset.
