The house
AREVMaximalist Riviera refuge
Bold tricolore stripes, scalloped parasols around the heated pool, and breezy garden courtyards evoke 1960s Riviera glamour without stuffiness.
“The building’s pale ivory stone is local to St. Tropez, and powder-blue shutters accent every edge.”
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Bold tricolore stripes, maritime blues, and retro Riviera styling across stand-alone cottages designed by Luis Bustamante.
Remarkable
Attentive 24-hour concierge messaging, poolside French fry butlers, and bespoke beds draped in fine French linens.
Notable
Summer pool DJ sessions, a cocktail lounge, and aperitifs poured from a retro Citroën truck.

Arev Saint Tropez manages to feel intimate and home-like, even as it takes on the proportions of a small resort.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set in the quiet Lices residential quarter, morning market strolls at Place des Lices are less than ten minutes away on foot.
The rooms
Cottages and suites feature Breton-striped walls, goose-down bedding, marble vanities, and French doors leading to private gardens or balconies.
The pool and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
Sun loungers flank the heated outdoor pool, and the fitness centre is fitted with Peloton bikes and a punching bag.
The spa
Treatment cabins offer botanical rituals developed with Maison ST, opening onto a sunlit garden terrace beside two hammams.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
The Strand serves Mediterranean seafood under a striped pergola, and Q's Bar pours cocktails beneath a red sail canopy.
How it began
The property draws its name from the French verb rêver, translating a dream of classic Côte d'Azur living into stand-alone cottages.
