Below, I have selected the best St. Tropez hotels in those areas which I know you will love! They are divided by price range so you can find the one that fits your budget best:
Luxury ($200 and up)
- La Bastide de Saint-Tropez – Considered among the St. Tropez luxury hotels, this 5-star accommodation comes with a diversity of choices from small double rooms, suites, and apartments that can hold up to four people, children included. The entire décor, furniture, design, and even the exotic private garden reflect the luxury experience you will receive there!

Please note that this hotel is only open during the summer.
Middle-priced (from US$100 to US$200)

- Best Western Plus La Marina – Plus La Marina in Sainte-Maxime is probably one of the few hotels near St. Tropez that’s both eco-friendly while also having well-equipped rooms and facilities such as a gym and outdoor swimming pool. It is right in front of the Port and within walking distance of several lovely beaches.
Budget (up to US$100)
As you can imagine, finding a good budget hotel in St. Tropez is hard… but not impossible! These options are in Port Grimaud (10-15 mins by bus #take 7601 or 7701) and Sainte-Maxime (15 mins by ferry) and are a great alternative if you want to save some money by staying a little outside town.
- Le Mas de Marie – The property has an outdoor pool for the guests and free Wi-Fi around the rooms. Saint-Tropez is only a 10-minute drive away, and the Port nearby is great for travelers who want beaches, vineyards, and hiking activities.

Best St. Tropez hotels on the beach
The views from most of the hotels are definitely worth the hype! So I advise you to stay in a hotel near the beach to take advantage of the natural beauty!
Some of the best beaches around are Plage de la Gale, Plage de Tahiti, Plage de la Ponche (all super close to St. Tropez’s City Center), and Pampelonne Beach (from St. Tropez, you can take the bus 7801 and then 7753, you will get there in 35 mins).
The most popular is Pampelonne Beach, where the whole St. Tropez vibe was born! Note that most of the beach clubs are closed in winter (October – May) but if you are traveling from June through September you can spend the day at either the paid or the public beach areas and catch a tan – don’t be surprised if you see one or two (or three, or four) people topless, it is pretty common in the south of France!
The city is known for its glamor, celebrities, parties, and stunning scenery. And to match this idea, I want to share with you the best hotels in Saint Tropez to stay on the beach!
NOTE: While the beautiful St. Tropez beaches have many hotels that give a front-row seat to the ocean’s magic, there aren’t actually many located directly on the beach due to the fact the beaches are not very large in size. So here I have found you the best options very close by or with easy access to the sand!
Luxury (US$350 and up)
- Hotel Pan Dei Palais – This is among the best luxury options where you can enjoy the St. Tropez beaches! This hotel has an oriental-palace décor and on the outside has a pool-side summer bar right next to the outdoor swimming pool. What’s more, a free shuttle is on standby to take you to the hotel’s private beach in an instant! All of their suites or smaller rooms are super cozy and even have a city or pool view for you to enjoy!
- Toison D’or – Set in exotic Mediterranean gardens on Pampelonne beach, this property boasts incredible African-style architecture that won’t let you forget you are staying at a luxury hotel! It also has a beach restaurant, fitness room and spa facilities. In case you want to visit St. Tropez Market, the hotel offers free shuttle service!
Middle-priced (from US$150 to US$350)
- Bright Apartment – It is located super close to the seafront and is in a building dated back to 1950, yet the decoration is modern! This apartment is beautiful, clean, and spacious, so I cannot recommend this accommodation enough if you prefer having your own space!
- Studio Centre – This is another beachfront apartment with everything you can imagine! Want to relax? A sun terrace is perfect for that, but if you want more adventure, you can hike or cycle in town! I’m telling you, this apartment has it all!
Budget (up to US$150)
- Les Lauriers – The hotel rooms are individually decorated in a Scandinavian style, with air-conditioning and a private bathroom. This accommodation has a B&B vibe, quaint and cozy but big enough to be a 3-star hotel.
- Hotel B Lodge – The best thing about this hotel near the beach is its price- it’s an excellent accommodation for a comfortable price. All rooms are air-conditioned, and some have a furnished balcony with a garden or city views.
