La Bastide d'Antoine

AAAAAAAHmazing! Beautiful! Perfect location. 10-15min Uber ride anywhere. But we barely wanted to leave because the hotel was so quaint, perfect, and beautiful. The staff are SO kind. If I could give this 100 stars I would.

Lovely hotel, a short drive to the main port, restaurants and shops of St Tropez. Pool is great, and very friendly staff.

My wife and I booked a table at the hotel restaurant for a romantic dinner with a view. The hotel certainly has a lovely view of the ocean but the other ‘view’ my wife experienced was unpleasant and deeply upsetting. On our arrival it was obvious we were the only people dining at the restaurant, although after an hour another couple did arrive to eat. Shortly after we had been seated, a gentleman in a room overlooking the restaurant walked onto his balcony and being completely naked, deliberately exposed himself to her. When she motioned for him to stop, he then began to pleasure himself in full view of us and was laughing as he did so. My wife reported the incident immediately to the restaurant staff who disturbingly, appeared to think it was amusing! However, someone from the hotel must have gone to his room because shortly afterwards the gentleman was called back inside his room and the balcony doors were closed. Having encountered this deeply upsetting scene you would have expected a manager to have come and apologised and, because under French law, what had occurred is classed as a sexual assault, the Police called. This is not what happened. There was no apology or offer of a complimentary drink or amendment to our bill. The meal itself was OK, but the whole evening spoilt.

We were looking for a peaceful retreat outside the hustle and bustle of St Tropez, and this fit the bill. I think the rooms here are relatively great value for the area, and the town is a great base for exploring the rest of the region. I highly recommend this hotel if you are looking for a more boutique, calm, tucked away experience while still wanting to stay close to St Tropez and the surrounding areas. Details below: Location: Definitely not walkable to St Tropez center like I expected (the walk if you do it is more like 40 min), and along the edge of a busy road where sometimes you don’t have a reliable sidewalk. The hotel itself is on top of a hill so you’d have to walk that back up if you didn’t have a car. The hotel is situated far away enough from the main road below where you don’t hear too much traffic. Because it’s high up on the hill, you have a great view of the gulf of st Tropez. Easy drive to town in the off hours, but I would recommend Uber or Bolt in the busy morning or night hours as if you drive into St Tropez, you’ll have to find empty parking; this can be a struggle even in the large public lots. You’re really close to Ramatuelle and the vineyards in Gassin. 10 min drive into St Tropez with no traffic, took us more like 25 min to drive in to St Tropez during the dinner hours. We loved that the hotel was far away enough from the hustle and bustle from the St Tropez center that it still felt relaxing, and you’re still close to the main attractions in the area. The hotel has its own parking area behind a gate which was a big plus. Rooms: Lovely. We stayed in the deluxe sea view room with balcony and had a lovely view of the water. The air con was strong, which was a big plus. Pool area: Really nice. Only thing I’d change is to have some sort of breeze since sitting out on the pool deck was stifling hot at times, but we can’t control the weather. The pool was surprisingly large and even with multiple guests using the pool area, we never felt on top of each other. Really peaceful atmosphere. Breakfast: This is the only part that I didn’t feel was worth the cost. Breakfast was 32 euro/person and had very little protein - it was like one egg dish, one bacon dish, and the rest was either yogurt with berries or pastries. Desserts like tarts and cakes made up 50% of the spread. If you don’t want sweets first thing in the morning, I don’t think it’s worth the 32 euros for your single option of a scrambled egg + some bacon. I was pregnant (and therefore starving) first thing in the morning so paid for the breakfast, and it was the only part of the stay where I felt we were wayyyy overcharged for what we were getting. The view from the breakfast area is lovely, and the fruit was nice, but If I wasn’t so ravenous first thing in the morning, I’d have waited and got breakfast somewhere in a cafe in town for a third of the price. The hotel itself: Lovely grounds, beautiful landscaping. Pine trees around you. There’s a little area off t

Nice and quite place. Turn Down service. Nice relax area around the pool. Great staff. Close to St Tropez and beaches.

We had a wonderful time here. A tranquil place and yet so close to everything. Just wonderful.
