Fodor's Expert Review Lou Pinet

At this five-star hotel just steps from Place des Lices, the Pariente family gives you a chance to experience the real St-Tropez, away from the madness of the bling-bling crowds. Lounge next to St-Trop’s biggest pool, watched over by two magnificent century-old pine trees. Designer Charles Zana ties it all together indoors with light hues, natural stone, wrought iron, and wood. The rate includes breakfast; just be sure to save lots of room for a meal at Beefbar, the on-site grilled-meats and street-food concept restaurant.
