About this property
Papillon 🦋 — sunny bliss for max. 4 holiday-makers
Welcome to your slice of paradise on the French Riviera – where breathtaking views, tranquility, and endless opportunities for relaxation and adventure await you. Nestled in the heart of the stunning landscape, my exquisite vacation rental apartment, lovingly nicknamed "Papillon" (Butterfly), offers a sanctuary for solo travelers, couples, and families alike, all year round.
Step into a world of elegant charm as you enter this completely renovated apartment, boasting panoramic views of the sparkling Mediterranean Sea, the lush Domaine de La Croix vineyards, the enchanting Bay of Cavalaire that lights up at night, and the “Golden Islands” (Levant, Port-Cros, Porquerolles) on the horizon. Not to forget the rhythmic rise and fall of the Massif de Maures mountains (to the right when you look out the windows) behind which the sun sets.
With high ceilings adorned with exposed beams, every corner of this gem exudes relaxed sophistication and tranquility.
Convenience meets luxury with a reserved parking spot just next to the stairs that lead to the private carpark on the building’s balcony side, ensuring hassle-free arrivals and departures. Embrace the serene atmosphere of the village center, a mere 5-to-8 minute stroll away, for your morning croissants, groceries, or a bite to eat.
Indulge in leisure and recreation with exclusive access to the amenities of the Residence Les Palmiers residential complex. Enjoy swims in the private outdoor pool, challenge friends and family to a game of tennis on one of the four private outdoor courts (the ping-pong tables provide a pleasant alternative), or unwind in the charming Club House restaurant with its inviting terrace overlooking the azure waters not only of the pool but of the Mediterranean too. Free access for residents from mid-June to mid-September!
Inside the apartment, discover a thoughtfully designed layout that maximizes space and comfort, offering a cozy retreat for solo travelers, small groups of friends, couples and children alike. Fall asleep in the master bedroom's 160x190cm double bed, while the adjoining room provides cozy 80x190cm bunkbed accommodations for two children or friends. Beware, the wall between the two rooms is incredibly thin, and the second room is very small although it does have incredibly useful bunkbeds.
Escape the distractions of everyday life while lounging on the big corner sofa that's filled with cushions, make the fan blow your way, and watch the newly installed Smart TV (new addition in December 2025!).
Alternatively, immerse yourself in the beauty of the surrounding landscape, while staying connected with high-speed WiFi powered by SFR's fiber optic network.
And don't forget to go explore the myriad of attractions that await just beyond the doorstep – from the idyllic beaches mere moments away (a few minutes by car, with the town’s free bus shuttle, or a 35 min. walk to the nearest one) to the picturesque towns of Saint-Tropez, Gassin, and Ramatuelle, each offering a unique blend of culture, cuisine, and charm.
For the adventurous spirit, embark on scenic hikes along the coastal trails of Port-Cros National Park, or set sail on a maritime adventure to the nearby "Golden" islands of Hyères, whose silhouettes you can see on the horizon from "Papillon!"
Closer to home, the rolling hills of the Maures Massif beckon cyclists and hikers alike, while wine lovers will delight in exploring the renowned vineyards dotting the landscape.
In short, whether you seek relaxation or adventure, "Papillon" (Butterfly) offers the perfect retreat to replenish throughout the year and experience the magic of the French Riviera.
Go ahead and book your unforgettable getaway today and discover the true essence of coastal living at its finest. 🦋
