An aerial perspective reveals the full estate of Villa Paradis, where a terracotta-roofed Provençal villa anchors a composition of clipped topiary gardens, a vivid azure pool, and a densely wooded hillside in Sainte-Maxime, French Riviera.
The resort-style outdoor pool at Villa Paradis is lined with dark sunloungers beneath white parasols, set against the warm Provençal villa facade and a backdrop of hillside greenery in Sainte-Maxime, French Riviera.
The open-plan indoor dining room at Villa Paradis pairs a glass-top walnut table with aged bronze metal chairs beneath exposed white ceiling beams, whilst sliding doors draw the eye directly out to the manicured garden beyond.
Villa Paradis is a four-bedroom Mediterranean villa set within a private estate in Beauvallon, Sainte-Maxime, a short stroll from the sandy shore of Plage de Guerrevielle and fourteen kilometres from Saint-Tropez. The villa sits within landscaped gardens of olive trees, flowering beds and flat lawns, with sea views from most of the four en suite bedrooms and from the main terrace. At the centre of the gardens, a heated 10m x 4.5m pool is flanked by a covered pool house, and a pétanque court provides an authentically Provençal counterpoint to the polished interiors. Inside, the open-plan ground floor brings together a lounge, a tapas-style dining area and a semi-professional kitchen, all opening directly onto a large shaded terrace. The villa was styled by an interior designer with a brief that balances understated elegance with practical family comfort, and the result is a property that feels genuinely lived-in rather than staged. Maid service five days per week is included, and a cook service is available on request, making it suitable for groups who want kitchen flexibility without committing to a full catering arrangement. Marketed through CV Villas, Villa Paradis sleeps up to eight across four king-size bedrooms arranged across three levels, with the lower ground floor offering additional separation for guests who prefer independent access. It is particularly well suited to families or two couples combining the pull of Saint-Tropez with a quieter residential base in Beauvallon.

Summer is the prime season here: the Bay of Saint-Tropez is at its warmest from late June through August, sea temperatures peak in July and August, and the full social energy of the Riviera is within easy reach. June and September offer a genuine alternative: the sea is still warm, the crowds are lighter and Saint-Tropez is navigable without the peak-season traffic. The villa is available year-round but outside the summer season most neighbouring facilities reduce their hours.
01The Architecture
Villa Paradis occupies a plot within a private estate in Beauvallon, a residential area of Sainte-Maxime that sits between the bay and the golf club. The building follows the classic Côte d'Azur villa model: rendered exteriors softened by mature Mediterranean planting, with terraces and garden spaces arranged around the pool at its centre. Accommodation spans three levels, with the lower…
02The Interior
The interiors were designed by an interior designer with a clear brief: understated elegance that functions equally well as a family home and a social space for eight. The open-plan ground floor brings together a generous lounge, a tapas-style dining area and a well-equipped kitchen in one connected volume, with light entering from multiple aspects and terrace doors creating a…
03The Outdoor
The gardens at Villa Paradis are planted with olive trees, flowering beds and flat lawns, creating a setting that feels more like a private garden than a rental property. The heated pool measures 10m x 4.5m and is fitted with built-in steps, a pool alarm and included pool heating, with a covered pool house alongside providing shade during the hottest…
04The Location
Villa Paradis sits in Beauvallon, a calm residential quarter on the western edge of Sainte-Maxime that occupies the northern shore of the Bay of Saint-Tropez. Plage de Guerrevielle is 700 metres on foot, a sandy beach accessible without crossing a main road from this side of the estate. Restaurant Gipsy Plage is at a similar distance, providing a beachside dining…
05Ideal For
Villa Paradis works best for a family of up to eight, or two couples travelling together with children, who want a private base on the Riviera with Saint-Tropez on the doorstep but not on the doorstep every day. The bedroom layout across three levels gives the lower ground floor genuine independence, which suits multigenerational groups. The included maid service and…

Ferry crossing to Saint-Tropez from Sainte-Maxime
The passenger ferry from Sainte-Maxime port to Saint-Tropez takes around fifteen minutes and sidesteps the notorious summer road traffic entirely. It runs frequently through the summer season and drops you directly into the old port.
