Architect Designed Villa Near The Sea

Sainte-Maxime occupies a privileged position on the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, facing its more famous neighbor across the water. The town has long attracted a discerning residential clientele who value the same quality of light and coastline as Saint-Tropez without the seasonal congestion. The waterfront promenade, the old port, and the pine-covered hills rising behind the town give Sainte-Maxime a coherent, unhurried character that has made it one of the most consistently sought-after addresses on the Var coast.

Daily life centers on the market at Place du Marché, the restaurants along the port including La Maison Bleue and Le Dauphin, and the beaches stretching east toward La Nartelle and Les Éléphants. The town center is compact and walkable. Saint-Tropez is a 15-minute ferry crossing from the port.

Sainte-Maxime is served by the RN98 coastal road connecting to Fréjus and the A8 autoroute, placing Nice approximately 90 minutes by car and Marseille around two hours. The nearest train station is at Saint-Raphaël, roughly 25 kilometers west, with TGV connections to Paris in under four hours. Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport, the primary international hub for the region, is approximately 80 kilometers east, around one hour by car.
