Villa Apollon, Sainte-Maxime 

Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Provence-Cote d'Azur, South of France

 

A traditional Provencal Villa in a colourful garden within the Old Quarter of Sainte Maxime on the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.

The property is available throughout the year. Prices range from £275 - £635 (per week) for the Ground Floor and from £375 - £885 for the First Floor, inclusive of all services and local Management. Low season and longer lets by arrangement.

Two apartments are available, one at ground floor level opening onto the garden, the other at first floor level approached by a curved stairway with a large balcony. The two apartments enjoy exclusive use of the pleasant garden, which is fully enclosed and provides secure, off-road parking for two family cars. Both apartments have full central heating

The villa is within a few minutes walking distance of the old town centre, with its abundance of restaurants, cafes, shops, boutiques, markets, sea-front promenade and beach. The extensive beaches of La Nartelle and Beauvallon are about five minutes drive in either direction. A regular ferry service makes the short trip across the Gulf to Saint-Tropez and is a popular excursion.

Sainte-Maxime enjoys a favourable year round climate, with much to offer its visitors by day, by night and throughout the year. The region is scenic and full of interest - Saint-Tropez, Port Grimaud, the hilltop villages of Gassin, Grimaud and Ramtuelle and the beaches of the Bay of Pampelone on the Presque'ile de Saint-Tropez. The Riviera resorts of Saint Raphael, Cannes, Nice, Antibes, Monte Carlo and Marseilles are about an hour's drive.

All watersports are available. Saint-Maxime has an 18-hole championship golf course at La Nartelle, a scenic 18-hole course at Beauvallon, tennis clubs and sailing clubs. In October, the world famous Voiles de Saint-Tropez 'La Nioulargue" is staged, attracting a fleet of beautiful classic sailing boats from around the world.

Villa Apollon was originally an annex to the Grand Hotel and when in 1895 Henri Saudan bought the hotel, he established it as a favourite with English visitors. In those days they came to the French Riveira to escape the English winter. However it was he who installed the first 'Frigidaire' in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez and opened his hotel in the Summer! Hitherto the season on the Cote d'Azur had been for the winter only and thus he pioneered the "unheard of"' Summer Seaon. Villa Apollon was bought by the present owners, from the daughter of Henri Saudan. In the 1960s Saint-Tropez was popularised by Brigitte Bardot and the area has been popular summer holiday destination ever since.
