Accommodation and Facilities for the apartment in Var, Cote d'Azur - Provence, France

Port Grimaud, the unique waterside village:

Situated in the Golf of St Tropez between St Maxime and St Tropez. Port Grimaud a resort that wonderfully captures the atmosphere of a traditional Mediterranean fishing village is a picturesque network of canals, small stone bridges linking the islands to the mainland, squares and pretty streets - a miniature Venice with varied Provencal houses painted in pastel colours built around the waterway system. Many houses have there own mooring, and care was taken by the designer Francois Spoerry that each has its own individual character. Yachts, motor boats and tenders pass by throughout the day and there is always something to watch. The complex is surrounded by well kept gardens and there are many pretty waterside restaurants to try. There is 24 hr security and cars are kept to a minimum and have to obey a 15 km speed restriction.

The local area:

The free water taxi can be taken from the end of the beach and this provides you with a pretty journey around the canals lined with an array of colourful fisherman's houses, you'll arrive in the main market square where you'll find the twice weekly market and many more restaurants and bars. Within 10 minutes walk of the apartment you'll find another square with tabac, bars and restaurants, markets also are held here twice a week in season. A further 5 minutes away are tennis courts. St Tropez can be reached by car (7 km) or far better by ferry only a 20 minute ride. A large market is held twice a week, selling everything from fresh local produce to designer clothes. There are many boutiques and lots of great restaurants and cafes. In the main port you will see some of the most valuable private yachts and motor cruisers in the world. Away from the glitz the town has retained it's feeling of tradition with small winding streets and old buildings that finally lead to the fort above.

Other neaby villages:

Within short driving distance, there are the medieval hill-top towns of Gassin, Grimaud and Ramattuelle. Further a field there are many famous towns such as Grasse (perfumes centre), Cannes/Nice and the Cotes D'Azur, Aix en Provence.
