Hôtel Le Chardon Bleu  

In the heart of Sainte-Maxime, a one-minute drive from Sainte-Maxime Beach and about 15 km from Saint-Tropez. Port of Grimaud is under 10 minutes away, and you’re close enough to pop over toward Cannes landmarks like La Croisette and the Palais des Festivals. City-center energy meets easy beach access here.

A compact hotel with 24 air-conditioned rooms that feel warm and well kept. Rooms come with minibars, LCD TVs, safes and desks, plus complimentary toiletries and hair dryers; daily housekeeping keeps things sharp. Chill on the terrace or in the garden, and rent a bike or join local diving excursions for a bit of adventure.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property, a 24-hour airport shuttle available for a surcharge, and luggage storage make arrival and departure easy. Socialize at the bar/lounge or one of three beach bars, try the on-site casino vibe, and book tours at the desk. Laundry, dry cleaning and ATM/banking services are on site.

Stay connected with complimentary wireless internet and count on multilingual staff (English, Spanish, French) to help arrange transfers and local logistics.

Grab a buffet breakfast on weekdays from 7:30–10:00 and on weekends from 8:00–10:30 for a fee, then sip cocktails at the beach bars or the hotel bar. Simple bites and seaside drinks keep things casual and local.
