La Belle Aurore - Les Collectionneurs

This is a wonderful small hotel. It has a lot of charm and very friendly owners and staff. You cannot beat the view from this hotel which is literally on the water and the food is very good both in terms of breakfast and the lunch and dinners. The pool is fantastic and it is great to be able to go in the sea directly from the hotel although a wooden jetty would have made it easier to get in and out of the sea.

I guess it is standard in the South of France in this sort of location and this time of year (we were there in mid July) but the price is very high for the quality of the hotel (decor etc) and the size of the rooms. Our room was in the loft and the access to it was along corridor with very low ceilings which were about 6ft and I am 6ft 5 and the bathroom had a number of beams at my head height so I did hit my head a couple of times!

The hotel is very welcoming. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The food is exceptional and breakfast offered top quality ingredients. The location is perfect for a short 5 minute walk into town. Parking is available

I liked everything about the property. Perhaps the only minor point was we had the suite. This is an old building (super cute) and I understand there are restrictions in height levels in the roof space where the suite is located. However, at top rate pricing, I maybe would have suggested an upgrade in the bathroom design and add a walk in shower. Clever design would definitely accommodate this. Overall, though, we had no complaints!

The property is right next to the sea, so great If you do not want to leave the hotel. It is very chill and relaxed and the pool was great. The location is also great. If you wish to take a ferry to St.Tropez, it is 15 mins walk from the Port. The staff are super kind and informative. My partner had food poisoning ( ate at a restaurant outside) and they did their best to find us a doctor. We really liked the clean towels and the super clean room and our room was very spacious. The parking is free and each room has 1 parking space.

We stayed at room number 1 which faces the reception and starting from 6.30 am onwards we heard every single talk and it was super loud. After working all summer long we wanted to have some peace and long sleeps. So do not get room number 1 If you are looking for silence. Bathrooms need to be renovated and I am 1.70cm tall and my head was touching the ceiling when taking a shower. My partner is 1.90cm tall and unfortunately he had to sit to be able to take a bath. You have to give your keys to the reception every-time you go out for a long time, which was a bit awkward. We wished we could have some sort of snacks at the seaside, not just the drinks.

Everyone raves about the infinity pool that rises from the sea overlooking St Tropez, and the first class cooking in the panoramic restaurant. And it's all true. But what surprised us the most (particularly given some negative comments online) was the warmth and charm of all the staff. There was no hint of snobbery or stiffness. We are clearly no glitterati, just two frazzled parents making the most of having the grandparents look after the toddler :) When we arrived we were a sweaty mess in backpacks and t-shirts, but Corinne at the front desk gave us the best welcome, she showed us around the whole place and invited us to take a dip immediately. She arranged a table by the window with a glorious view and all the waiters and the chef were so attentive and kind, even though we ordered no starters or wine. The room was rustic but the bed was good and the balcony was stunning. The 12pm checkout gave us a chance to enjoy the wonderful breakfast (steep at 20 euros but includes lemon cake, french toast, a boil your own egg machine, fruit salad etc) and lounge around the pool and tiny private beach to our hearts content. Thanks to everyone at La Belle Aurore for a lovely stay.

It was high season but the room price was very steep even for the area (over 350 a night). Breakfast should really be included in that price... Kettle in room would also have been welcome. The bathroom was functional but old.

Modern, clean and friendly staff at check in and checkout. Can unfortunately not say the same for the lady at the breakfast.

Breakfast at 25euro per person is very expensive as it’s not a good breakfast. Coffee from a machine, watered down juice from a machine and tables you need to set yourself. Fitness center is small with treadmill that is very noisy and squeaky.

Such a charming place, the views from the restaurant area and the infinity pool are amazing. Right next to the ocean with several sunbeds. Super convenient location being a max 10min walk from Sainte Maxime centre, and 15min to the harbour to catch a boat to Saint Tropez. We would highly recommend staying here!

amazing property with infinity pool next to the ocean. Fantastic restaurant for a fine-dining experience. own private balcony/terrace way cheaper to stay in sainte maxime than st tropez. staff extremely helpful and friendly

only fault i can say is there is a dangerous step out from the room to the balcony

Pool, private beach, the view, the food

Only a bathtub in the room, no place to shower while standing.

Stunning location, right by the sea with views across to St Tropez. Lovely rooms. Helpful staff. Good breakfast but on the expensive side!. Within easy reach of Ste Maxime & all its restaurants etc. Ferries available at Ste Maxime to go to St Tropez & other excursions on the sea.

There are no snacks available at lunch time only the full menu which is OK at night but not for a mid day snack. The hotel are missing out here!

The hotel was wonderful with friendly, helpful staff. The room was spacious and clean and had many amenities, like comfy robes after a shower. The service was exceptional, including turn down service. The location could not be better, right on the water with gorgeous views. It is a short walk to the center of town, but far enough away to be quiet and peaceful. Will definitely return.

I cannot think of anything lacking.
