Utter Bliss from Top to Toe

Cheval Blanc St-Tropez takes on a warm, relaxing glow as guests soak in sheer luxury and indulgence.

It’s the Golden Hour every hour at Cheval Blanc St-Tropez. As guests luxuriate in the last vestiges of an Indian Summer, the Maison has readied a cornucopia of immersive experiences for total bliss and utter relaxation. The legendary resort is the quintessential Riviera retreat and more, as guests totally immerse themselves into Tropezian time under the sun while the waves lap calmly on the beach.

Signature inspirations abound from languid sunrise picnics to a leisurely treasure hunt at sea; or from a wellness journey in the Orchidée Salon to a tour of the market on Places des Lices. The resort’s Ambassadeurs are on hand to design every unforgettable moment.

Elsewhere at the Maison, regular activities include paddle yoga, pilates, a brisk walk on the coastal path, and madeto-measure personal training, which can be supplemented by the Maison’s 24-hour indoor and outdoor fitness area offering treadmills, fitness and Peloton bikes, elypticals and mountain climbers, weight training, a NOHrD Wall, and a smith machine. The resident coach, Benjamin, is right by your side to help you reach your fitness goals and to find your right overall balance. Coaching sessions can be done individually or in a group, or bespoked with any one of the Maison’s signature cures.

But perhaps even that sounds like too much work and the day’s proceedings call for doing absolutely nothing by the Maison’s stunning pool and beach. Designed so that the pool blends seamlessly into the Riviera, the magnificent scene lulls you in to settle down to an apéro nap on a sunlounger by the Maison’s exquisite beach, to dip your toes into the edge of the sea, or simply to have a saltwater soak in the deep blue Riviera. There is also the option of the heated main freshwater swimming pool for even more relaxing dips and warmer dives.

What Cheval Blanc does best is rest and relaxation. Those who return from a day packed with activity are wont to book a season at the celebrated Cheval Blanc Spa where wellness is explored to the lengths of its possibilities. The spa, a unique collaboration between the Maison and renowned beauty brand Guerlain, presents a soft and serene haven with warm, soothing hues highlighted by Fred Eerdekens’ poetic artworks.

Inside, a treasure trove awaits, with a spa boutique featuring rare Guerlain products, four single treatment rooms, and an Orchidée Salon presenting an intimate and lavish treatment room for two. A hammam, an ice fountain and a snow shower present two ways (hot and cold) are also available to invigorate the senses, release muscle tensions and awaken tired minds.

Exclusive face and body treatments are specially designed for Cheval Blanc St-Tropez by Guerlain’s Beauty Experts and created with a stay on the Mediterranean in mind. Guests begin their treatment journey by selecting the scent family they prefer to heighten their sensory journey.
