Hotel Byblos Saint-Tropez

Hotel Byblos Saint-Tropez is on Avenue Paul Signac. The property sits just steps from the sand at Plage de la Ponche, the yachts lining the Port de Saint-Tropez, and the morning markets of Place des Lices.

Most of the town’s waterfront hotels trap you in the constant noise of the docks, but this property uses its slight elevation to carve out a different sort of seclusion. While its peers fight for proximity to the central thoroughfares, Byblos offers a compound that feels walled off from the surrounding scramble. It is a better choice for those who want the town’s most famous landmarks within a three-minute stroll without having to hear the crowds from their balcony.
