Villa Joyau

About this property

Set in the hills of Grimaud, Villa Joyau commands sweeping views across the Bay of Saint-Tropez. This elegant Provençal hideaway blends refined style with contemporary comfort, offering a stylish sanctuary just minutes from some of the region’s most celebrated coastal and hilltop destinations.

Spread across two levels, the villa offers generous living space for up to 8 to 10 guests. Upstairs, a light-filled living room opens onto a wonderful terrace. Here, leisurely breakfasts or sunset aperitifs are enjoyed with views across the distant Mediterranean and surrounding hills. Furthermore, a dining area and fully equipped kitchen make self-catering a breeze.

Meanwhile, four air-conditioned double bedrooms promise restful nights with luxury mattresses, two on the upper floor with their own private bathroom spaces, two downstairs on the pool level alongside a fifth bedroom with bunk beds.

Framed by a south-facing garden, the villa’s outdoor spaces invite slow summer days. Cool off in the infinity swimming pool, fire up the barbecue for al-fresco meals, play a leisurely game of table tennis or even work out in the poolside gym.

Perfectly placed within an attractive residential domaine, Villa Joyau enjoys a coveted position between the medieval hilltop village of Grimaud and the waterfront charm of Port Grimaud. Also a short drive or ferry ride away, Saint-Tropez offers boutiques, high-end restaurants and vibrant market days. Whether strolling cobbled lanes, relaxing on golden sands or dining under the stars, the location opens up a world of Riviera delights.

For families or friends seeking the perfect blend of privacy, sophistication and French Riviera living, Villa Joyau is a graceful invitation to savour the Côte d’Azur and its hinterland.

Set in a residential domaine with south-facing views towards the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, Villa Joyau is perfectly located to experience the charm of hilltop villages and beautiful landscapes alongside the glamour of the French Riviera.

In the heart of the Var region, it’s around a 10-minute drive to the hilltop village of Grimaud (5km). Winding cobbled streets, flower-draped stone houses and panoramic views over the bay make this medieval village an irresistible retreat. At its summit, the ruined château presides over a patchwork of vineyards and woodland, whispering tales of the past with every breeze. Pick up fruit, vegetables, flowers and other regional delights at the Provençal market on a Thursday morning.

Just a short drive in the other direction, the vibrant waterfront enclave of Port Grimaud (4km) unveils a striking contrast. Dubbed the “Venice of Provence,” this modern marina town is laced with pastel-hued houses, meandering canals and picturesque bridges. Hop on a boat or simply stroll the quayside to soak in its unique maritime charm before settling into a café for a glass of chilled rosé.

For those craving the sea and sand, Plage Grimaud (4km) is an attractive stretch of coastline offering golden sands and gently lapping waters – ideal for swimming and water-based activities.

The legendary town of Saint-Tropez (11km), with its chic boutiques, bustling twice-weekly market and world-famous harbour, is within easy reach, as is the more laid-back seaside resort of Sainte-Maxime (10km) perfect for a relaxed lunch or an evening promenade.

Further afield, the iconic Plage de Pampelonne (15km) tempts with its stylish beach clubs and soft, sandy shores – a must for lovers of the Mediterranean high-end lifestyle and watersport enthusiasts.

Adventure seekers will find their calling in the Maures hills, where winding trails lead through cork oak forests and wild landscapes. Explore the authentic village of La Garde-Freinet (14km) or embark on hiking and biking excursions that reveal breathtaking vistas and hidden beauty at every turn.
