What a Saint-Tropez Villa Rental Costs Per Week

Q: How much is a Saint-Tropez villa rental per week?

A six-bedroom Saint-Tropez peninsula villa runs EUR 28,000 to EUR 65,000 a week at the standard band and EUR 65,000 to EUR 160,000 at the Les Parcs trophy band in August. Outside the 18 July to 25 August peak, the same villas drop 30 to 45 percent. After the 20 percent TVA where it applies plus beach-club and transfer lines, the all-in week typically runs 40 to 60 percent above the headline.

Q: What is the TVA on a Saint-Tropez villa rental?

France charges 20 percent TVA (value-added tax) on furnished tourist accommodation supplied by a registered operator. Le Collectionist and the larger managed operators invoice it as a separate line. Plum Guide and Onefinestay rates already include it where it applies. Private owner-direct rentals are often outside the TVA system. On a EUR 40,000 headline, that is EUR 8,000 added, or EUR 0 from a private owner.

Q: How do you get from Nice airport to a Saint-Tropez villa?

A Mercedes V-Class from Nice (NCE) runs EUR 320 to EUR 480 each way, with a 90-to-140-minute road transit that stretches to three hours on August Saturdays. A helicopter from NCE to the La Mole heliport (LTT) runs EUR 1,800 to EUR 2,800 each way for a six-seater and is the only sensible arrival for Saturday afternoons in August.

Q: What does a Saint-Tropez villa rate usually include?

Standard inclusions on the Le Collectionist, Plum Guide, and Onefinestay tier are the property, daily housekeeping (six days), pool maintenance, gardening, Wi-Fi, and arrival cleaning. Cars, chef, beach-club bookings, transfers, and concierge sit on top. Les Parcs trophy villas often include a butler and 24-hour concierge in the headline; confirm in writing.

A six-bedroom villa on the Saint-Tropez peninsula in August lists at EUR 28,000 to EUR 160,000 per week, and that headline is rarely more than two-thirds of the bill. France adds 20 percent TVA where the operator is registered, the commune adds a taxe de séjour of EUR 4.40 per adult per night, and the Pampelonne beach-club and Nice transfer lines do the rest. This guide prices the rental the way an estate manager would: by bedroom, by season, and by the all-in week, with three worked examples and the levers that actually cut the total.

Two facts govern Saint-Tropez pricing before you read a single rate band. The first is the TVA treatment, which is operator-dependent. Under French law a registered operator charges 20 percent TVA on furnished tourist lettings, and Le Collectionist and the larger managed portfolios invoice it as a separate line. Plum Guide and Onefinestay quote rates that already carry it where it applies. Private owner-direct rentals are frequently outside the system, so the same villa can read 20 percent apart on two different listings for reasons that have nothing to do with the house. The second is the Saturday turnover: a mid-August Saturday afternoon landing at Nice adds 90 to 120 minutes to a transfer that runs 100 minutes the rest of the week, which is why so many August groups end up on the helicopter.

The rates below were verified against May 2026 cards from Le Collectionist, Plum Guide, Onefinestay, and The Thinking Traveller, plus four direct managers operating across Les Parcs de Saint-Tropez, Ramatuelle, Gassin, and La Croix-Valmer. For the sub-market detail and the longer line-item ledger, see our companion page on St-Tropez villa prices.

No. I · Headline Rates

The starting number, by bedroom and season.

Headline weekly rate before TVA, taxe de séjour, beach-club lines, chef, and transfers. Peak is 18 July through 25 August. Shoulder is the first half of July, the last week of August, and the first three weeks of September. Off season is late May, June, and the back half of September into early October.

Bedrooms	Peak (18 Jul – 25 Aug)	Shoulder	Off season
4 BR	EUR 14,000 to EUR 32,000	EUR 9,500 to EUR 22,000	EUR 6,500 to EUR 14,500
5 BR	EUR 20,000 to EUR 48,000	EUR 13,500 to EUR 32,000	EUR 9,500 to EUR 22,000
6 BR (standard)	EUR 28,000 to EUR 65,000	EUR 18,500 to EUR 44,000	EUR 12,500 to EUR 28,500

August is the only true peak on the peninsula, with the sharpest premium 8 to 22 August. The Cogolin and Grimaud countryside delivers the best euro-per-bedroom inside the peninsula envelope, at the cost of 20 minutes to Pampelonne.

No. II · The Line Items

What sits on top of the headline.

TVA: 20% when the operator is registered

France applies 20 percent TVA to furnished tourist accommodation supplied by a registered operator, web-verified through the French government rate (impots.gouv.fr; the standard TVA rate is 20 percent). Le Collectionist and the larger managed portfolios itemise it. Plum Guide and Onefinestay quote it inclusive where it applies. Private owner-direct lettings are commonly outside the system. On a EUR 40,000 weekly headline the line is EUR 8,000 from a registered operator and EUR 0 from a private owner, so confirm the invoice format before you compare two listings.

Taxe de séjour: EUR 3.30 to EUR 4.40 per adult per night

Set by each commune. Saint-Tropez charges EUR 4.40 per adult per night at the luxury-villa tier; Ramatuelle, Gassin, and La Croix-Valmer run EUR 3.30 to EUR 4.40. Children under 18 are exempt. For a family of eight (four adults, four children) on seven nights in Ramatuelle, the line is EUR 92 to EUR 124. The operator collects and remits to the commune.

Pampelonne beach clubs: EUR 3,200 to EUR 7,500 per week

The Pampelonne ecosystem is not optional on this peninsula, it is the operating cost. Club 55 runs EUR 120 to EUR 180 per head with wine; Nikki Beach and La Réserve à la Plage run EUR 160 to EUR 240 with the bed minimum; Loulou Ramatuelle runs EUR 180 to EUR 280. A family of eight across three or four visits a week lands at EUR 3,200 to EUR 7,500. Book the bed reservations six to ten weeks ahead in peak.

Evening chef: EUR 480 to EUR 780 per service plus food

An independent evening chef on the peninsula runs EUR 480 to EUR 780 per service plus food at cost for ten, with food landing at EUR 55 to EUR 130 per person. A week of four chef nights and two chef lunches runs EUR 4,800 to EUR 9,500 all in. The August lead time runs eight to twelve weeks.

Nice (NCE) transfers: EUR 320 to EUR 480 ground, EUR 1,800 to EUR 2,800 helicopter

A V-Class from Nice runs EUR 320 to EUR 480 each way, 90 to 140 minutes outside the August Saturday turnover when it stretches to three hours. A helicopter from NCE to the La Mole heliport (LTT) runs EUR 1,800 to EUR 2,800 each way for a six-seater AW109 and is the only sensible Saturday-afternoon arrival in August. Héli Sécurité and Monacair are the established operators.

Staff and gratuities: housekeeper and gardener typically included

The standard luxury villa includes a daily housekeeper, gardener, and pool maintenance in the headline; the Les Parcs trophy properties add a butler and concierge. A cook is rarely included below the trophy band. A cash gratuity of EUR 80 to EUR 160 per staff member per week on departure is the practice at this tier, distributed by the villa manager.

No. III · Worked Examples

Three weeks. Three real totals.

Three trip configurations priced for clients in 2024 and 2025, verified against the source contracts. The pattern holds across all three: the line items add 40 to 60 percent on top of the headline, the highest premium on any French villa coast we cover.

Example I

Two couples, late June, four-bedroom Gassin hilltop villa.

Headline: EUR 12,500 / wk (shoulder, sea view).

TVA (20%) EUR 2,500. Taxe de séjour (4 adults, 7 nights at EUR 3.30) EUR 92. Two chef services (EUR 560 each) EUR 1,120 plus food EUR 760. Pre-stock EUR 480. Self-drive SUV seven days EUR 1,540. NCE V-Class round trip EUR 420. Two beach-club lunches for four EUR 1,200. Half-day Riva charter EUR 2,200 plus fuel EUR 320 plus tip EUR 260. Place des Lices dinner EUR 820. Gratuities EUR 280.

All-in: EUR 24,512 for the week.
Premium over headline: 96%.

Example II

Family of 10, second week of August, six-bedroom Ramatuelle ridge villa.

Headline: EUR 52,000 / wk (sea view).

TVA (20%) EUR 10,400. Taxe de séjour (6 adults, 4 children, 7 nights at EUR 4.40 adult) EUR 185. Four chef services (EUR 680 each) EUR 2,720 plus food EUR 3,200. Pre-stock EUR 860. V-Class three days EUR 1,860, SUV four days EUR 1,080. NCE helicopter round trip EUR 5,400. Beach-club lunches (Club 55, Nikki, Loulou) EUR 8,000. Full-day Itama charter EUR 3,800 plus fuel EUR 560 plus tip EUR 440. La Vague d’Or dinner EUR 4,200. Gratuities EUR 640.

All-in: EUR 95,145 for the week.
Premium over headline: 83%.

Example III

Group of 14, third week of August, eight-bedroom Les Parcs villa.

Headline: EUR 105,000 / wk (trophy, butler and concierge included).

TVA (20%) EUR 21,000. Taxe de séjour (10 adults, 4 children, 7 nights at EUR 4.40 adult) EUR 308. Five chef services (EUR 780 each) EUR 3,900 plus food EUR 4,800. Pre-stock EUR 1,200. V-Class six days EUR 3,720, SUV one day EUR 320. NCE helicopter (three legs) EUR 8,400. Beach-club lunches EUR 9,800. Two-day Wally charter EUR 14,400 plus fuel EUR 980 plus tip EUR 1,540. Town dinners EUR 5,200. Gratuities EUR 860.

All-in: EUR 181,428 for the week.
Premium over headline: 73%.

The helicopter line in Examples II and III is the single most consequential cost decision on the peninsula in August. On a non-Saturday arrival the V-Class is fine and the premium drops 10 to 15 points. Example I’s 96 percent premium on a small shoulder headline is the trap that catches first-time peninsula buyers.

No. IV · Reducing the Bill

How to cut the total, without cutting the trip.

Five levers move the all-in figure on a Saint-Tropez week.

Move to the third week of September. The headline drops 30 to 45 percent, the sea is still 24 degrees, and beach-club lead times fall from twelve weeks to three.

Trade Les Parcs for the Ramatuelle ridge. Same Pampelonne access, similar sea view, 40 to 55 percent cheaper at matched bedroom count.

Land Sunday or Monday, fly home Friday. The August Saturday turnover is the most expensive logistics window of the year and the reason most groups pay for the helicopter.

Pace the beach clubs at two visits, not five. Swim from the villa or the boat the other days and save EUR 2,200 to EUR 4,800 on the line.

Book owner-direct where the TVA is genuinely out of scope. On a EUR 40,000 headline that is a real EUR 8,000, but confirm the contract and insurance terms before you chase it.
