Villa Arienne

About the villa

Villa Arienne sits in a secured domain at Ramatuelle, Les Hautes de la Quessine — five minutes from Pampelonne beach and under ten minutes from the heart of Saint-Tropez. It is the kind of address that lets you slip into village life when you feel like it, then disappear back behind your own gate.

The villa is wrapped in a mature Mediterranean garden, planted with species from across the south — cypress, olive, oleander, lavender, fruit trees — and at its heart a heated swimming pool with its own pool house and outdoor fireplace. Long dining tables on terraces flank both sides of the villa, so you always have a shaded spot for breakfast and another for sunset apéros.

Lower in the grounds, a sheltered pétanque court sits between the fruit trees, with a picnic table for drinks during the game. A few steps further on, a charming Jacuzzi terrace catches the last light of day — the kind of sunset spot you remember long after the holiday ends.

Inside, a large living room with fireplace opens through sliding doors onto the garden. The kitchen — generous, with its own dining table and a working wood stove — connects to a covered outdoor dining area. The master bedroom enjoys a private bath and shower room, with French doors that lead straight into the garden.

The left wing of the villa holds four further bedrooms: two with single beds, two with doubles, each with its own en-suite shower and toilet — ideal for families or groups of friends travelling together.

After dark, the garden’s discreet lighting reveals layered views up to the hills of Ramatuelle. Villa Arienne is, quite simply, made for slow afternoons and long dinners with the people who matter. As always with Cyrus Villas, private chef, daily concierge, beach club bookings and transfers can be arranged at your request.
