Superb 10-bed villa in Sainte-Maxime with stunning views over the Mediterranean and everything you could want from a luxury residence.

This buzzing little town is situated across the bay from the world famous fishing village. Whilst one of it’s attractions is the fact you can visit St. Tropez so easily either by taking the beautiful coast road around the bay or by hopping on one of the many boats heading directly to St. Tropez port, Sainte-Maxime really has so much to offer by itself.

This South facing village was founded around 1,000AD by the monks from the Lerin islands off Cannes and was named after one of the Saints of their order – Maxime. The village grew and in the 20th century it started to attract artists, poets and writers who enjoyed the climate, the beautiful surroundings and the azur blue water. The town is easily accessible from the A8 motorway and the drive up the coast road to Cannes and the rest of the French Riviera is stunning!

The town itself is awash with boutiques, bars and restaurants to suit all tastes and budgets, there are countless beach clubs and a wonderful port as well as a number of golf clubs and many other activities in this area, it even boasts it’s own waterfront casino for the high rollers!

Properties range from town centre apartments through to villas on the golf course and beautiful private estates in the hills. Home Hunts currently has one of these private estates available for sale and it really is an absolute gem.
