While many parts of our country still shiver before winter’s frosty breath, the first rays of spring sunshine are already warming the Gulf of Saint Tropez, where February is a month of considerable loveliness. It’s a month that opens under the auspices of Love, aided by our special Valentine’s Day offer, which among other delights invites you to discover the gastronomic wonders concocted by our chef, Philippe Colinet. Philippe’s creativity and hard work has just been rewarded with a star in the Michelin Guide! Finally, as happiness never arrives alone, the Musée de la Gendarmerie has just reopened following a short break and is featuring an exhibition dedicated to the screen legend Brigitte Bardot.

Staying at the Bastide Saint-Tropez, you’ll enjoy the elegance and comfort of a five star hotel while succumbing to the charm of the town with which the legendary Brigitte Bardot fell in love.

In Saint-Tropez, just like elsewhere, the sales are on. However, Saint-Tropez is not really like other places and the sales here have a slightly different flavour.

This year, once again, the village of Saint-Tropez has donned its scintillating clothes of light to celebrate Christmas and the arrival of the New Year. Illuminations, a skating rink, a market, a flea market and an antique fair await you in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Deckchairs and bath towels have been carefully folded and tidied away until next spring, and it’s time for the pleasures of winter! For although Saint-Tropez is most widely famed for offering a foretaste of paradise during the summer, this prestigious resort is certainly not left behind when it comes to celebrating the Christmas holidays.

A bargain hunter’s dream event takes place in Saint-Tropez each year at the end of October. La Grande Braderie invades the streets from October 28th to 31st as the shops of the town move their stock into the street to be sold off at greatly reduced prices.

Yachts and luxury cars are in the spotlight in Saint-Tropez this autumn. From September 24th to October 2nd, the internationally famous regatta known as the Voiles de Saint-Tropez disturbs the placid, turquoise waters of the Gulf. Then, the following weekend, on October 7th, 8th and 9th, the 23rd edition of Porsche Paradise brings together hundreds of fine examples of the various models that have been created by the prestigious German brand

Along with beach, pool and party, summer at the Bastide de Saint-Tropez is also synonymous with festivals. Among our favourite moments are those spent at the Ramatuelle Jazz Festival.

Every day at the Bastide de Saint-Tropez our talented chef, Philippe Colinet, weaves his magic on the taste buds of our guests with tasty and original recipes that bring out the full flavours of Provencal produce.
