About this property

villa with pool, nr St Tropez, short walk to beach

Villa Elica is a fully modernised charming Provencal house in the bay of St Tropez with private pool, and is furnished to a high standard. It is set within a gated community comprising about 25 homes of which about 50% are let as holiday homes and the rest are occupied by locals. There is virtually no through traffic and free parking is available outside the house.
There are 4 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and it sleeps 8. The house is spacious and can comfortably accommodate 2 families. The house is fully equipped, has wireless internet, reversible air-conditioning, pretty Mediterranean gardens and lovely views. You can dine either on the front terrace or in the back garden overlooking the pool, where there is a gas barbeque. It's 900m (10 minutes walk) to beautiful sandy beaches.
It is 20 minutes walk to Port Grimaud which has a good selection of shops and waterside cafes and restaurants. It's 1 minute walk to the nearest shop and restaurant in summer, 5 minutes in winter. It's a short drive or water taxi ride to St Tropez. You can also cycle to St Tropez or St Maxine along the cycle path in about 40 minutes ( this is how long it takes us with 2 children). The house is a short drive to Grimaud ( about 10 minutes) and other picturesque hilltop villages. Whilst a car is handy it's not essential, and as well as being able to walk to the beach and the restaurants of Port Grimaud, it's 5 minutes walk to the bus stop, from which you can take a bus to St Tropez, Grimaud, St Maxine and St Raphael.
The price quoted is fully inclusive, including cleaning at the start and end, all linen and towels except beach towels and a local agent to meet and greet you and to be on hand if need be during your stay.
Note, there is air conditioning in all 3 upstairs bedrooms. Downstairs there is air-conditioning in the lounge/ dining room but not in the downstairs bedroom. This room has a fan and usually stays quite cool due to it's thick stone walls.
Downstairs there is a shower room and toilet, upstairs there is a bathroom and toilet.
Note, we are close to a nearby campsite, which has outside evening entertainment in July and August which can be heard from our garden. This always ends by 11pm.
We have English speaking TV including Netflix.
We've made the house a home from home and you'll find a good selection of books, CD's, DVD's and board games, and table tennis.

60 th birthday family get together in Port Grimaud
Nicola was exceptionally accommodating to our changing schedule due to flight changes . We had a small issues with getting into the property but was sorted swiftly by management team . No complaints just a great property in a great location for amenities. We particularly enjoyed outdoor spaces ( infact even with a very poor weather day we only slept inside ) . Would recommend!

Wonderful Villa
We had a wonderful week in Villa Erica. The Villa is spacious and comfortable (2 adults & 2 teenagers) and had everything we needed. Great outdoor spaces back and front with a lovely pool to relax in. Also use of bikes which was a bonus. We did not take a car and it was not a problem. 10 min walk to the beach and Port Grimaud close by. Took a boat to St Tropez, easy to catch a bus to Sainte Maxime and plenty of restaurants nearby. Small supermarket 2 mins away from Villa or huge (much cheaper) supermarket a couple of miles away which we had taxi to and stocked up. Property Manager Zoe was very helpful and always on hand. One final word for Nicky, the property owner who has been fabulous all the way through the covid experience, from early enquiries back in 2019 to us finally getting to the Villa in 2022. We would happily recommend.

Great house
A very nice house that lived up to our expectations. We were very impressed by the pool, the rooms but maybe especially the small little things like the snacks, drinks and kitchen stuff that welcomed us.

About the host

Hosted by Nicola Funnell

Host profile image
We are a family of 4 who live in London. After having 3 wonderful holidays in this part of France we decided to take the plunge and buy our dream holiday house in 2013. This is a beautiful part of France, where we feel there is something for everyone, and we are looking forward to sharing our home with you.

Why they chose this property

Our house is close enough to walk to the beach and the many restaurants and cafes of Port Grimaud, and is an easy cycle ride to St Tropez without the St Tropez price tag! The area is famed for its beautiful beaches and pretty hilltop villages.
