Cheval Blanc St-Tropez

Imagine an oasis of calmness, understated luxury, and great views with exquisite food throughout.

They have a three-Michelin-star restaurant, but the food excellence extends to every order whether it's room service or a pool snack. The hotel staff has found the perfect balance between friendliness and efficiency. Add perfect service and great accommodations, and you're close to understanding what this wonderful hotel provides.

We had the best experience at Cheval Blanc — the location is fantastic and the property has every amenity you could imagine.

The hotel is in a great location close to town, and they offer shuttle service to drop you right in the city. The rooms were beautiful, clean, and comfortable with everything you could possibly want. The service was absolutely incredible throughout our stay. I can't recommend this place highly enough for anyone visiting St-Tropez.

Honestly one of the best boutique oceanfront resorts in the world with impeccable service and great ambience.

The staff know all hotel guests by name, and the first-class breakfast and lunch service is incredible. The only negative is that the guest rooms are very small, but everything else about this place is perfect. We'll definitely return next summer.

Two ladies wanting drinks and food were rudely asked to leave because we weren't hotel guests.

We parked and the barman showed us a table and gave us menus. A few minutes later, a waiter came and told us to leave with a very rude and unacceptable attitude, saying they don't accept non-hotel guests. My friend and I were actually considering staying at this hotel next time, but with this quality of service, it's impossible.

The staff are the most friendly people ever and really make you feel special.

The food is absolutely delicious with a fantastic menu — I'm very particular about my food and there were many scrumptious options that made it hard to choose. The hotel is all about customizing everything to how you want it, which is how all hotels should be. This is an unforgettable experience that you won't regret one bit.

After twelve trips to St. Barts and staying everywhere, we've decided Cheval Blanc is where we'll always stay.

We stayed in one of the Beach Suites with a private pool overlooking the beach — absolutely beautiful and our second time in this exact room. The service is fantastic without being cold or stiff like some French hotels can be. Everyone was warm and welcoming, and even though we're not regulars, it felt like we were. The location gives you the best of both worlds — close to Gustavia but with a really private, peaceful beach. Do yourself a favor and book that outdoor massage hut.

We came from Eden Roc and Rosewood Le Guanahani expecting great things, but honestly felt a bit let down at first.

The ants and flies in our room on check-in were gross for this price point. But everything changed after that first night — La Cabane lunch was absolutely perfect, the beach service was spot-on, and the staff really impressed us with their training and personality. Management has created something special here where every department works seamlessly together. By the end, we realized this place has something the others don't.

I loved the concierges and front desk staff — everyone made us feel so comfortable and warm.

When we left, the entire staff lined up in the driveway to wave goodbye, like you see only in the movies. The rooms are very luxe but definitely small — that's the one negative, but they can't change that. Having your own beach club is fantastic, especially on days when the Ramatuelle beaches had no breeze and the hotel caught the breeze perfectly. I'll only stay here from now on.

The rooms are smaller than my closet at home, giving a mild sense of claustrophobia.

Although the location is terrific with excellent service, this hotel is tiny. The foyer and pool area are packed to the gills with people, and there were children with toys strewn all over when we arrived. This is definitely not the place for a quiet, romantic, expansive getaway. With such high price tags, it just feels like a bit of a rip-off.
