Saint Tropez is a city with two facets. During the day, it takes on the features of a peaceful and picturesque village with its typical architecture and soothing seafronts. In the evening, Saint Tropez becomes this trendy destination where the nightlife from the four corners of the globe meets.
The Côte d'Azur is one of the most beautiful luxury holiday destinations to get away from it all. This fabulous coast and its surroundings are full of treasures and the restaurants in Saint Tropez are one of them.
