Philippe Starck's New Hot Spot in St. Tropez

The restaurant La Brigantine, the cantina Pépé and the Lucie Bar welcome at any time for a lunch with friends, a romantic dinner or a drink in the sun. Also designed by Philippe Starck, these new additions to the Lily of the Valley hotel on the French Riviera opened June 29, 2021.

In July 2019, the Lily of the Valley hotel opened its doors in La Croix-Valmer on the Mediterranean Sea to welcome guests to a place of elegance, offering refined services related to health and well-being such as weight loss and skin treatment, accompanied by a team of experts.

The father and daughter duo behind this project once again had Philippe Starck, who designed the hotel, work on the new additions to, what is considered, the village square by the sea. La Brigantine restaurant, the Pépé cantina and the Lucie Bar opened on June 29, 2021; the new pool suites opened on July 5, 2021.

La Brigantine exhibits elegant tables by the water and a wooden pergola overgrown with jasmine and wisteria. Inside, the terracotta walls associated with the raw furniture in beaten and hammered iron naturally contrast with the organic rattan and the colored fabrics of the seats offer an authentic and refined atmosphere. Under the culinary direction of Chef Vincent Maillard, guests enjoy Italian gastronomy-inspired cuisine while appreciating the view of the Gigaro beach.

Comfortably seated in the adjoining Lucie Bar, guests can curl up in the natural leather sofas with warm velvet cushions, for a drink or herbal tea amber light from the pendant lights by Venetian artist Aristide Najean.

The Italian-inspired Pépé cantina has charming huts that welcome guests at any time of the day for a light lunch in the shade of the canisses. The natural wood furniture in pastel colors is a fresh reminder of the deckchairs and umbrellas on the landscaped beach of Lily of the Valley.

Open onto a large private garden with a swimming pool, the 8 pool suites of Lily of the Valley extend over 90 to 280m2. On 1 or 2 levels, these private villas offer an environment exceptional in the middle of Mediterranean nature. Elegant, intimate, spacious and comfortable, unique, they nestle below the hotel, a few meters from the fine sandy beaches.
