Company description
Un lieu pour vivre, aimer et s’évader
Née à Saint-Tropez, AREV Collection imagine des lieux d’exception portés par des valeurs humaines, où l’on vient ralentir le temps, retrouver le glamour d’un âge d’or et vivre des expériences luxueuses, sur mesure, profondément mémorables.
À seulement cinq minutes à pied du centre du village, AREV Saint-Tropez se cache au cœur de jardins préservés et parfumés : un havre discret, pensé comme un « retour à la maison » plus qu’un simple check-in, où l’on est accueilli par des visages amicaux qui deviennent vite des repères.
L’adresse déploie 35 chambres et suites, réparties entre la maison principale et plusieurs villas, dont certaines avec jardin privé. L’expérience se prolonge dans des lieux de vie emblématiques : The Strand Restaurant & Champagne Lounge, Q’s Bar, le Pool Bar, et la Place des Oliviers, place ensoleillée inspirée de l’âme tropézienne, ponctuée de boutiques éphémères et d’une atmosphère résolument Riviera.
