Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez, 28th September- 6th October 2019, will attract massive attendance as it celebrates its 20th anniversary. New this year, Lou Pinet Hotel is the perfect hideaway, only minutes from the village where over 4,000 crew on-board 300 classic and modern yachts from around the world will congregate to race.

Kindness and generosity best describe the warm welcome guests enjoy at Lou Pinet. Nestled under two venerable stone pines, the hotel is more like a family home. It is organised around a huge swimming pool, surrounded by a scented garden landscaped by Grasse-based Jean Mus. Architect and interior decorator Charles Zana drew on Provence’s decorative arts and crafts heritage, making ample use of linen, ceramic, rope, terracotta and whitewashed surfaces, enhanced with Vallauris pottery and Biot glassware and carefully handpicked artwork from the sixties. The 34 spacious rooms and suites each have a private outdoor lounge to relax in, with the ever-buzzing cicadas and gentle breeze rustling through the trees as a soundtrack. The Spa, an intimate haven designed to resemble a secret cave is perfect to enjoy exclusive Tata Harper treatments. For dinner al fresco on the restaurant large terrace Beefbar based on premium cuts of meat and unique on the Riviera, offers a large choice of Black Angus Prime, Wagyu WX and Kobe beef as well as a large selection of plates to share. Lou Pinet is the latest addition to the Maisons Pariente hotel collection, a concept resembling private houses where life flows simply and pleasurably.
