Villa Hotels in Saint-Tropez, Pools and Sea Views
In Saint-Tropez, the villa addresses on this page are small hotels in villa style rather than houses rented whole, with one exception: Hotel des Lices also rents a private villa with a full kitchen. Villa Cosy, hotel & spa, rated 9.2, has a heated outdoor pool five minutes on foot from the centre. Althoff Hotel Villa Belrose, also rated 9.2, sits on the hills above the town with panoramic views of the bay, a spa and a heated pool. Villa Playa del Sol offers direct beach access and a pool, but from only ten reviews so far.
Saint-Tropez still has a Provençal village at its core, even as its name stands for international glamour. Traditional fishing boats share the harbour with superyachts, cobbled lanes lead to designer boutiques, and the markets, the citadel and the old quarter of La Ponche keep an everyday pace. In summer the nightlife and the events take over the evenings. A villa stay lets a group choose between the two: the life of the port when they want it, and their own space and quiet the rest of the time.

Centre, hills or the beach
A villa hotel in Saint-Tropez gives you a pool, a terrace and quiet nights, while keeping the port, the Place des Lices and the old town close. The four addresses here range from the centre, where you can walk everywhere, to the hills, where the view of the bay is the main draw, and to the beach. Choose the centre for evenings in town, the hills for calm and views, and the beach villa if you want to swim from your door.
Villa Cosy, hotel & spa, rated 9.2 from more than 200 reviews, is the most practical villa for a first stay. It has a contemporary villa setting with a heated outdoor swimming pool, and it is only a five-minute walk from the centre of Saint-Tropez, so the port and the old town are easy to reach on foot. Rooms and suites are available, some with private patios opening onto the poolside terrace, and breakfast can be served in your room or on the terrace. If you want a pool and the town within walking distance, I would book this one first.
Hotel des Lices, rated 9.0 from more than 160 reviews, is the address in the town centre, near the square that shares its name. It has an outdoor pool, a restaurant and a spa with a hot tub, and it welcomes families and pets. Beyond its air-conditioned rooms, it also rents a private villa with a fully equipped kitchen, the only true self-catering villa on this page. For a family or a group who wants to cook and still walk to the market on the Place des Lices, my advice is to ask about that villa early.
Althoff Hotel Villa Belrose, rated 9.2 from 66 reviews, is the choice for views. It stands on the hills above Saint-Tropez with panoramic views of the bay and the French Riviera, and many of its air-conditioned rooms have private terraces with sea views. The hotel has a fine dining restaurant, a spa and a heated outdoor pool. Being above the town, it is calmer than the centre but you will need a car or a taxi to reach the port. I would pick it for a special occasion, when the view and the setting matter more than walking everywhere.
Villa Playa del Sol - B1 is the beach option, with direct beachfront access, a private beach area, sea views and a swimming pool, plus balconies, a terrace, a bar and a garden. It is rated 9.0, but from only ten reviews, so the score is still fragile compared with the other three villas. For a stay focused on swimming and the sea rather than the town, it is worth a look. Overall, I would choose Villa Cosy or Hotel des Lices to be close to the port, and Villa Belrose or Villa Playa del Sol for views and the sea.
A traveler's take
For a first stay in Saint-Tropez, I recommend Villa Cosy, hotel & spa: it has a heated pool and patios onto the poolside terrace, and the port and old town are five minutes away on foot. For a family that wants a kitchen, I would ask Hotel des Lices about its private villa, close to the market on the Place des Lices.

Hotel des Lices
A central Saint-Tropez hotel with a pool, spa, and pet-friendly villa
Why guests love itHotel des Lices is a central Saint-Tropez address that openly welcomes families and pets. The outdoor pool gives children a break between beach outings and walks around town, and the restaurant saves parents from hunting for a table in high season. Besides air-conditioned guest rooms, there is a private villa with a fully equipped kitchen, which is the option I would look at for a larger family. The spa with its hot tub is there for the adults, and WiFi is free.

Villa Playa del Sol - B1
Beachfront villa with private beach, sea views, and a swimming pool
Why guests love itDirect beach access with a private beach area is the reason families will look at Villa Playa del Sol - B1, and the Plage de la Bouillabaisse is only a few steps away. A swimming pool with sea views gives children a second place to swim, and the garden and terrace offer shade between sessions. Rooms are air-conditioned with balconies and private bathrooms. A bar covers evening drinks for parents. I would suggest it for a beach-first family stay in Saint-Tropez.
