Les Parcs de St Tropez:
A prominent domain, hosting a number of ultra-luxury properties for sale and top villas for rent, Les Parcs de Saint Tropez has a notable affluence on the real estate market of Saint Tropez. As an internationally recognised location welcoming the world’s elite, such as the richest man in the world Bernard Arnault, this domain is also the subject of a substantial number of land acquisitions.There are several compelling reasons to buy and/or rent a villa in Les Parcs de St Tropez.
La Moutte

With a wide range of prices, characteristics and unique purchase opportunities, La Moutte provides property investors with a widespread selection of one-of-a-kind properties for sale to choose from.
Les Salins
Villas for sale in Les Salins are few in number and therefore this area has a modest number of sales transactions each year. Les Salins stretches from Saint Tropez center to Les Salins beach and offers a wide variety of properties, from small houses to mansions.
L’Estagnet
Home to a selection of top waterfront properties and owners such as the iconic Brigitte Bardot, L’Estagnet is an exclusive area which, although does not boast a large number of annual sales transactions, adds to the diverse portfolio of property transactions within Saint Tropez.
