Designed and completed by the legendary French architect Philippe Starck – the standalone Villa W is the perfect luxury bolthole from where six guests - in three bedrooms - can enjoy exclusive use of its facilities. Here they can work-out, swim in a stunning private 17-metre pool, eat healthily, enjoy treatments, or just sit back, relax, and enjoy 180-degree uninterrupted views of the Mediterranean Sea from private terraces. Discretion is Villa W’s watchword.

Lily of the Valley – which opened in 2019 with 52 guestrooms including 14 suites – has become one of the most popular hotels in St. Tropez with its private pristine sand beach – Plage de Gigaro and year-round wellness programmes from weight-loss to fitness-training.

Residents of Villa W can use any of the facilities in the main hotel – which includes four healthy-eating restaurants and Dr Jacques Fricker’s Shape Club that promotes “optimum health through sport, wellness and clean eating”.

Starck’s imagining of Villa W is bold and industrial while retaining the softness & comfort required in its luxury setting. Along with swathes of concrete, glass and steel, the Villa is filled with natural light, soft light leather sofas, free-standing baths, and dive-into beds – complete with sea views. Villa W comes with a Butler – every guest wish is fulfilled.
