Review
Most guests at this twenty-six-room manor house are lodged in pink-and-ocher pavilions, some of which have garden terraces and open-air Jacuzzis. The hotel is set back from a country road, and the pool is in a tropical palm-shaded garden. La Bastide’s restaurant, L’Olivier, excels in Mediterranean classics, and attracts a local clientele year-round. If you want to feel like you’re part of the St.-Tropez scene, this decidedly untrendy hotel isn’t the place for you. But travelers who appreciate great food as well as a deeply comfortable and quiet setting—and a good deal—will be happy here.
Who Should Stay
Couples who want proximity to St. Tropez but at a lower price and without the scene.
