Off-season, Saint-Tropez reveals its intimate side. From hidden hotel gems to legendary terraces and dreamy restaurants, here\u2019s my guide to an elegant, poetic, and authentic Saint-Tropez.<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

An iconic village, Saint-Tropez is without equal<\/b>. Unique in the world, it reminds us of the charm of the 1950s <\/b>when Roger Vadim was filming \u201cAnd God Created Woman.\u201d It also reminds us that life is fragile: Brigitte Bardot is no longer with us. She lived in seclusion at La Madrague, devoted to animal welfare, far from the excesses of the jet set and the bling-bling atmosphere. \u201cOn the deserted beach. Shells and crustaceans\u2026\u201d These lyrics resonate here with a particular melancholy.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Those nostalgic for the New Wave and the carefree years prefer to stay in Saint-Tropez outside the summer madness. That doesn\u2019t mean they shy away from the events that punctuate the calendar: Chefs Celebrate Producers<\/b> (early May), La Bravade<\/b> (mid-May), The La Ponche Literary Prize<\/b> (late May), Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez<\/b> (late September), Paradis Porsche<\/b> (October), or La Grande Braderie<\/b> (late October).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For it is indeed off-season that Saint-Tropez reveals its intimate side. The sun is gentle, the water is a pleasant temperature, and the restaurant terraces breathe. The days stretch out slowly between dips in the sea, impromptu lunches with your feet in the sand, strolls through flower-lined alleyways, and cocktails savored in the golden light of the sunset.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here is my selection of spots and beautiful getaways<\/b> to discover an intimate, authentic, and poetic Saint-Tropez\u2014in slow-life mode.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Find a refuge in a dream hotel\u2026 away from the hustle and bustle of Saint-Tropez<\/b><\/h2>\n

A new generation of Saint-Tropez hospitality, AREV<\/b>\u2014meaning \u201csun\u201d in Armenian\u2014lives up to its name. Just a few minutes from Place des Lices, this boutique hotel immediately evokes a special feeling: that of being welcomed.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Set around Place des Oliviers, the property evokes a mini Proven\u00e7al village<\/b> where the pace naturally slows down. The gourmet restaurant The Strand<\/b> and the champagne lounge celebrate a refined and sun-drenched Mediterranean. The sole, beautifully carved by server Pierre, is followed by a pear tarte tatin. Evenings sometimes take on the air of a suspended interlude when singer Myriam Abel emotionally revisits \u00c9dith Piaf.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We love the slightly theatrical decor conceived by Madrid-based designer Luis Bustamante<\/b>. The various spaces and the 35 rooms and suites blend deep blues and vibrant reds in a style reminiscent of the Hamptons reimagined under the Proven\u00e7al sun.<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Around the heated pool, conversations slow down. A few guests try their hand at padel, while others hop on a chic electric bike or set off in a M\u00e9hari to explore the surrounding beaches.<\/p>\n

AREV Saint-Tropez<\/a> \u2014 starting at 630 euros per room in low season.<\/p>\n

A member of Relais & Ch\u00e2teaux, La Bastide de Saint-Tropez<\/b> elegantly cultivates the art of the discreet retreat. It welcomes loyal guests seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of Saint-Tropez. Here, there is no intrusive music: only birdsong and the rustling of palm trees accompany the days.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Nestled among olive trees, cypresses, and bougainvilleas,this oasis of peace<\/b> centers around a manor house and four light-filled Proven\u00e7al farmhouses. The 26 rooms blend shades of ecru, ochre, and sunny yellow in a classic and refined style. The delicate works of ceramicist Olivia Cognet lend a unique charm to this high-end retreat.<\/p>\n
