A true 5 star experience
25 August 2023 at 03:23:53
This site is much more than a ‘campsite’. It is very much a 5 star resort with lodges. We have stayed in many 5 star sites across France and this had a true 5 star feel. Whilst there are plenty of activities for children, including a fantastic ‘kids world’ with rides and fairground games, it... has a grown up, luxury ambiance. We stayed with Eurocamp and the service on site was excellent, from the welcome to our departure. Accommodation was exactly as we were expecting and was clean and well maintained. The pool area is beautiful. If you want a sunbed you need to be queuing at the gate from 9:30 (10am opening), but there is a lovely sandy area around the outside of the sunbed areas that are shaded by palm trees where you can put a towel down. There is a nice pool bar serving cocktails and light snacks. There are a number of restaurants along the beach, directly accessed from the site. All with stunning views across the bay of Saint Tropez. Port Grimaud is accessible by leaving the site at the port side exit. Entrance to the port is over the road, directly opposite the site. The port is a lovely mix of shops, bars and restaurants. The weekly market is worth a visit. You can get the bateaux vert boats from the church in the centre of the port over to Saint Tropez. Approx €50 for family of 4/return. Saint Tropez was much less brash than I was expecting. Beautiful old part of the town- defo worth a visit. Other places worth a visit that are within 20 min drive : Ramatuelle - ancient village with stunning views, Gassin- another beautiful, small village but worth the visit for the stunning views, old Grimaud village on the hill - good market and views with ramparts and ruins on the hill. There is a well stocked supermarket on site, but there is a large Casino supermarket about 5/10 mins from the site. The beach is clean and pretty, with lots of palms trees for shade.
