Saint-Tropez, France

Why charter a private jet to Saint-Tropez?

From May to September, the peninsula concentrates considerable demand: jammed roads, inflexible scheduled flights and scarce accommodation. The private jet, combined with a fast transfer, saves valuable time and preserves discretion, for a weekend as much as for a longer stay.

Our teams select from our fleet the aircraft suited to the number of passengers and to the arrival airport, and coordinate the whole journey, from the apron to your hotel.

La Môle or Nice: which airport for Saint-Tropez?

La Môle – Saint-Tropez Airport (LTT / LFTZ), around twenty minutes from the village, has a runway of about 1,180 m. It is reserved for turboprops and light jets, in daylight only and with no customs on site; larger aircraft and international arrivals cannot land there.

In that case, Nice Airport serves as the gateway: Saint-Tropez is reached in around twenty minutes by helicopter, or about 1.5 hours by road. Our teams determine the best option depending on the aircraft, the number of passengers and the arrival time.

What to see and do in Saint-Tropez

The heart of Saint-Tropez beats on the Old Harbour, where yachts sit alongside the terraces, starting with the Sénéquier café. Climbing towards the Ponche quarter, the lanes lead to the Citadel and its maritime history museum, overlooking the gulf. For art, the Musée de l'Annonciade gathers a remarkable post-impressionist collection, from Signac to Bonnard, in a former chapel.

The Place des Lices, shaded by century-old plane trees, hosts the Provençal market on Tuesday and Saturday mornings, and its legendary games of pétanque. A few minutes away, Pampelonne beach, in the commune of Ramatuelle, lines up its beach clubs: Club 55, open since 1955, Verde Beach or Nikki Beach. Between swims, the vineyards of Ramatuelle and the Côtes de Provence, sailing and the galleries round out a stay that is both seaside and cultural.

Where to stay: palaces and legendary tables

Saint-Tropez has four Palace-rated hotels. Le Byblos, opened in 1967, remains the village's most iconic address, at the heart of Tropezian life. Cheval Blanc Saint-Tropez, set on Plage de la Bouillabaisse, is home to La Vague d'Or, awarded three Michelin stars.

On the heights, the Château de la Messardière overlooks the gulf a few minutes from the centre, while in Ramatuelle, La Réserve Ramatuelle combines contemporary architecture with Mediterranean views. Our concierge service books the hotel, the table and the transfers to build a bespoke stay, as a continuation of your flight.

The great events of Saint-Tropez

The flagship event is nautical: Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez, in late September and early October, brings together close to 250 sailing yachts, from century-old classics to the most modern maxis, in one of the finest regattas in the Mediterranean. In spring, the Bravades, in May, keep alive a centuries-old tradition at the heart of the village. The summer season is also punctuated by polo, at the Polo Club in Gassin, and by a renowned nightlife.

These occasions are among the most in-demand periods: our teams anticipate the flight, slots and accommodation to secure access.
