Overview

Lily of the Valley is a premium hotel in a luxurious setting on the Saint Tropez peninsula with panoramic views over the Mediterranean. The elegant design of the hotel is inspired by Babylon's hanging gardens with lush vegetation throughout, designed by the famous Philippe Starck.

This luxury wellness hotel is well-known for its "Shape Club" which surprisingly combines weight loss with pleasure! You can enjoy sports facilities and watersports activities, be supported by a team of experts, and fine cuisine that will still help you to lose weight - with the smile.

Don't forget to take advantage of the unspoilt Gigaro beach just 5 minutes walk away. The hotel has its own private beachclub with a restaurant and sunloungers. And, if you really want to escape from it all, you can easily head to Saint Tropez or nearby towns on the French Riviera including Nice, Cannes and Monaco.

When to go

July is the hottest month in Saint Tropez with the most daily sunshine hours at 11. The wettest month is November with an average of 105mm of rain.
