From a terrace above the bay to a week at sea, or a yacht of your own.
From a villa on the Belle Isnarde hillside, the Gulf of Saint-Tropez unfolds below you. In the morning it belongs to the fishing boats and a few early sails. By noon the tenders are running to Pampelonne. At dusk the yachts anchored in the Baie des Canebiers begin to light up, and the whole bay takes on the glow of a town in mid-conversation.
After a few days, most guests start to wonder what that view looks like from the water. A long lunch at Club 55, arriving by tender rather than by car. A swim off Cap Camarat. Or a bigger question, the kind that tends to come up on the third evening: what would a summer at sea feel like, or a yacht of your own?
That is where The Yacht Collection comes in. We are pleased to introduce it as a partner to St Tropez Villas, bringing yacht charter and yacht sales into the same conversation as the homes you already know through us.
The villa and the yacht, together
The best St Tropez summers often combine both. Mornings by the pool in Les Parcs or Ramatuelle, then a yacht waiting in the bay for the afternoon. The house becomes the base, and the sea becomes the garden.
The Yacht Collection presents a selection of yachts for charter chosen for the experience they deliver on board, not for the length of their specification sheet. Some guests want a week that begins at the villa and ends somewhere new: Corsica, Sardinia, or the islands of Greece. The fleet ranges from Fifi, a Custom Line 140 delivered in 2025, to La Mirage, a 52-metre Amels long known for relaxed family charters, and King Benji, a 47-metre explorer with a plunge pool on the bow.
When winter comes, the same team looks to St Barts, Antigua and the Bahamas. And for those who want something more remote, French Polynesia, Patagonia or the atoll of Aldabra in the Seychelles.
From guest to owner
In St Tropez, boats are part of daily life. A Wajer is how you get to lunch. A Riva is how you arrive at the old port in the evening. Spend a summer here and you quickly learn which yachts suit the bay, and which ones you would like to see from your own terrace.
The Yacht Collection was built around that kind of understanding. Rather than presenting every listing available, it focuses on yachts chosen for their quality, character, pedigree and ownership potential. Wajer, Pardo, Vanquish and Dehler sit alongside Sanlorenzo, Sunreef and Royal Huisman, each with a clear reason for being there.
Brokerage yachts and new builds are presented side by side, with market insight and a buyer’s guide written to inform rather than persuade. The starting point is always the same: how you intend to use the yacht. A day boat for summers at the villa is a very different brief from a yacht that can carry the whole family to the Aegean.
Why this partnership makes sense
St Tropez Villas exists to make a stay on the peninsula feel effortless. We know the gated calm of Les Parcs, the vineyards around Ramatuelle and the waterfront houses of Les Canebiers, along with the chefs, drivers and household teams who make each villa feel like home. The Yacht Collection brings the same kind of knowledge to the water, working with shipyards, brokers and crews across several oceans.
Both sit naturally within The S Collection. A family might take a villa near Pampelonne in July, spend their afternoons aboard a chartered day boat, then spend the winter weighing a Wajer of their own against something larger with The Yacht Collection’s brokers. Each step is handled by people who understand the one before it.
Nothing about the way you book a villa with us changes. What changes is how far the stay can go.
What this means for you
If you are planning a stay in St Tropez, we are here as always. If you would like a yacht waiting in the bay during your stay, or a week at sea before or after it, we can introduce you to The Yacht Collection’s charter team. And if you are thinking about ownership, their brokers will help you compare the yachts that matter, with honest advice on how each would suit the way your family likes to spend time on the water.
Tell us where the idea begins. We will take care of the introductions.
