Sainte Maxime Charmante Villa Provençale Avec Vue Sur La Mer

Grimaud is a medieval hilltop commune in the Var department, sitting above the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. The village retains its original Provençal character, with stone lanes, a Romanesque church, and the ruins of an 11th-century castle that frame views across the gulf toward Saint-Tropez. It occupies a distinct position in the region: close enough to the coast to access the Riviera lifestyle, yet removed from the seasonal congestion that defines the shoreline towns.

The marina at Port Grimaud, a purpose-built waterfront village modeled on Venice, is roughly five minutes by car. Sainte-Maxime’s town center, with its market, restaurants along the seafront, and sandy beaches, is approximately ten minutes. Saint-Tropez is accessible by boat from Port Grimaud or by road in around twenty minutes outside peak season.

The nearest major transport hub is Toulon-Hyères Airport, approximately 70 kilometers west, with regular domestic and seasonal European connections. Nice Côte d’Azur Airport, the primary international gateway for the region, is around 100 kilometers to the east, typically one hour and fifteen minutes by car outside summer traffic. The TGV station at Les Arcs-Draguignan connects to Paris in approximately three hours and fifteen minutes and is around 25 kilometers from Grimaud.
