best plans are rarely written down.

About Arev Saint-Tropez

Some say we’re the best luxury 5-star hotel in Saint Tropez, and we’re not one to argue! We’re also proud holders of one Michelin Key. Awards aside, the numbers we really care about are the 24/7 obsession our entire team has with making every stay with us as fabulous as our guests.

Tucked among fragrant gardens, AREV is a luxury hotel in Saint Tropez, just minutes from the heart of the action. Take a leisurely walk into village center, borrow a bicycle, cruise in a bespoke open-top Mehari, or have our Hosts arrange an on-call shuttle.

Getting here is part of the adventure. AREV St. Tropez is around I hour 30 minutes from Nice and Marseille international airports, 50 minutes from Toulon Airport, and around 50 minutes from Saint-Raphaël train station. Prefer a grand arrival? La Mole Saint Tropez airport for private aircraft is only 25 minutes away, and helicopter transfers from Nice or Cannes take anything between 25 and 15 minutes - just long enough to take in the stunning Riviera views.

AREV places you right in the heart of the Saint-Tropez village. Stroll through Place des Lices, linger over harbour-side cafes, browse the famous St Tropez market, explore the Citadel, boutique-hop between rosé stops, or spend the day living gloriously at the clubs of Pampelonne Beach - all just a walk or a short complementary shuttle drive away.

We truly believe that St Tropez is not just for summer and and with this in mind, AREV St. Tropez is open year-round. Please note that every now and then we briefly close during winter months to add a little extra magic, welcome new additions, refresh a few details, and dream up new reasons for you to come back.

Reservations & bookings

We accept all major credit cards, including Visa, Mastercard and American Express.

We also accept cash up to €10,000 for international guests and €1,000 for French nationals (we don’t make those rules!).

Oh no! Can’t make it? Plans can change, and we understand. High- season stays require one month’s notice, shoulder season requires 15 days, and low season just three days. Our Reservations Team is always here to make the process as simple as possible because the only thing that should feel complicated at AREV is deciding between rosé or champagne.

Absolutely! From family gatherings to landmark celebrations, to those “we accidentally booked half the hotel” weekends, AREV St. Tropez welcomes group stays with special rates available from six rooms upwards.

Service & stays

Know the feeling of arriving to your friends’ house for a cherished getaway? Our Hosts are the Tropezian equivalent of the “friend” and the ultimate Riviera insiders - here to handle everything from your arrival, extra towels, impossible-to-get beach club reservations and yacht charters to romantic surprises, last-minute tables, and perfectly curated Saint-Tropez days. Basically, they are your go-to people before, during and after your stay at Arev St Tropez. And remember - if it sounds fabulous, they know someone.

Check-in begins at 4:00 PM, although we’ll do our best to get you settled earlier whenever possible. Arriving ahead of schedule? Leave your luggage with your Host and they’ll help you slip straight into Saint- Tropez mode.

Sadly, all good things must come to an end and check-out is 12:00 PM. Fancy lingering longer? We don’t blame you! Late check-out requests are welcomed, but are subject to availability.

At AREV St. Tropez, little ones, grown-ups, and everyone in between are warmly welcomed. Think relaxed Riviera luxury with a playful streak where family mornings by our dedicated family pool effortlessly turn into elegant evenings under the stars.

Please bear in mind that our main pool keeps a more refined adults- only mood and children under the age of 14 are invited to use the family pool only.

Yes - interconnecting rooms are available for families, friends, and groups who prefer their getaway with a little extra togetherness. Simply let our Reservations Team know when booking, and we’ll help arrange the perfect setup.

Food and drink

Of all the restaurants in Saint-Tropez, ours is a deliciously iconic one. The Strand revives one of Saint-Tropez’s legendary culinary names with Mediterranean flavors, seasonal ingredients, and enough temptation to justify dessert twice.

Breakfast at The Strand is a leisurely affair served daily from 7:30 AM to 11:30 AM. If you didn’t leave the dance floor until dawn and need a slower start, all your favorites are available throughout the day via room service.

The Stand serves lunch from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM in the high season (3:00 PM otherwise), whilst dinner begins at 7:30 PM and lingers deliciously until 11:00 PM in the high season, otherwise 10.30 PM. For those cravings in-between, there’s our terrace and pool bar menu to tempt you with light bites and classics.

The Strand Al Fresco is the essence of summer in Saint-Tropez, served open-air. As the evenings grow warm, Place des Oliviers transforms into a magical outdoor restaurant where seasonal cuisine, handcrafted cocktails and live music are set beneath a canopy of twinkling lights and the stars. The Strand Al Fresco open daily over the summer from 7.30 PM to 11.00 PM.

Of course! Culinary indulgence is available around the clock. Our 24/7 menu lets you enjoy breakfast in bed, lazy lunches on your terrace, or those 4am post-club cravings that somehow always taste the best. Whatever the hour, indulgence is only a phone call away.

Weddings, events & buy-outs

AREV was born to say “I do” and romance comes very naturally here. Think intimate ceremonies beneath olive trees, candlelit celebrations under the stars, champagne flowing freely, and unforgettable Riviera weddings that feel straight out of a Saint-Tropez love story.

Yes. From glamorous private dinners and poolside celebrations to intimate gatherings and full hotel buyouts, AREV was made for memorable moments - preferably with champagne in hand and at least one outfit change before dessert..

Oh yes! Our wine cellar is a sexy, seductive hideaway that can host intimate gatherings amongst one of the most coveted wine collections in Saint-Tropez.

Spa, wellness & leisure

Yes. Our state-of-the-art fitness centre is open 24/7 and features Technogym equipment, Peloton bikes, yoga classes, and personal training on-demand - perfect for balancing hedonistic beach club afternoons and late-night cocktails with a little virtuous movement.

Two, in fact! Adults can slip into serenity beside our elegant heated 3 m deep pool, signature cocktail in hand, while younger guests make a splash at the family-friendly pool so everyone wins - exactly as vacations should be.

AREV Spa with Maison ST is your Riviera reset - complete with two treatment rooms, a hammam, and the only waterbed in a spa in Saint- Tropez. Expect natural, locally sourced ingredients, bespoke treatments blended to your preferences, and just the right amount of Saint-Tropez indulgence..

Yes - and things can get wonderfully competitive. Our padel court is made for morning rallies, sunset showdowns, and “one last game” that somehow turns into three - loser gets the first round of cocktails afterwards, obviously.

Yes. Our boutique on Place des Oliviers is dangerously good for your suitcase allowance - stocked with curated local and international designers, AREV signature pieces, resort wear, jewelry, swimwear, and everything you need to glide effortlessly from beach club lounging to candlelit dinners looking suspiciously fabulous.
