Hôtel Lou Pinet

Inspired by the glamorous Tropezian spirit of the 60s, this slow life refuge channels nostalgia through retro-styled rooms, manicured gardens perfumed with citrus and pine, and a turquoise-tiled pool surrounded with loungers and fabric parasols.

Inspired by the glamorous Tropezian spirit of the 60s, this slow life refuge channels nostalgia through retro-styled rooms, manicured gardens perfumed with citrus and pine, and a turquoise-tiled pool surrounded with loungers and fabric parasols.

Bewitched by the place to this day, the Pariente family took over the Hotel Lou Pinet in 2017, completely transforming it with the ultimate dream team. Charles Zana and François Vieillecroze for the architecture, landscaper Jean Mus for the gardens and Beef Bar’s Riccardo Giraudi for the restaurant. In love with the South in general and the French Riviera in particular, the team members have joined forces to reinvent the Hotel Lou Pinet, as they would be a private home where friends gather for a different take on Saint-Tropez. The real one.
