Or, to be more precise, and to give the new exhibition of the Museum of the Gendarmerie of Saint-Tropez its official title, "Animals and Stars".  A gallery of original, fun and endearing portraits by photographer Edward Quinn.

The famous little Var port of Saint-Tropez hides a truly atypical place – the "House of Butterflies". Based in an authentic Saint-Tropez house, the museum shelters a unique collection, a fabulous selection of diurnal butterfly species from France and elsewhere. These divinely beautiful butterflies, with their light, diaphanous grace will give wings to nature lovers and budding scientists!

We know the beautiful city of Saint-Tropez for of its shady squares and its typically Provençal alleys. We also know the magical beaches that dot the Gulf and the mimosa flowers that are just opening with the warm mildness of early spring. But, did you know that during the eighteenth century, the port was one of the most important on the Mediterranean? That seamen set off to explore the entire Ottoman Empire as their wives waited here for them to return? It’s an epic story best told by the Maritime History Museum.

This year, the famous Les voiles de Saint-Tropez brings the gulf to life from 30th September to 8th October. It's a unique opportunity to see some of the most beautiful old and new yachts as you cheer them on in races that combine sporting performance and expertise with flair and elegance.

As the light softens and seems less harsh, our wonderful beaches take on a more intimate atmosphere. There's no doubt that summer is coming to an end. However, its passing invariably makes way for a delightful and alluring late season. And, since the Sezz Saint-Tropez is preparing to close for winter, we invite you to make the most of these last, colourful days with our "Indian Summer Offer".

During your stay in St Tropez you should not miss the exhibition of five major works by the Franco-American artist Niki de Saint Phalle, She is perhaps most famous for her Nanas, a series of distinctly feminine sculptures that she began creating in the mid-60s, bursting with bold primary colours and voluptuous forms that will startle you! An exhibition brimming with curves and hues for you to admire from July 1st to October 8th, 2017.

The luxurious Spa Sezz by Payot in the Hotel Sezz Saint-Tropez invites you to relax, rejuvenate and experience a profound sense of wellbeing via a complete range of body and beauty treatments. Then, after a soothing session, you can take the opportunity to discover items from the Boutique de Canebiers, on sale at the spa. 

Married forever to the Grande Bleue, the small Var port lies in the shelter of a mythical bay. Azure water, fine sand, Provençal tradition, beach culture - today, Saint-Tropez is a symbol of holidays and upscale relaxation. It is in this beautiful jewel case that the Sezz chose to settle. A place fed by a legend – let us explain…

This year, once again, the Château de la Moutte hosts its famous music festival in its gardens and on the nearby beach. You'll find everything from classical and Jazz to Cuban music on the programme from the 1st to 13th August 2017. A great event to discover during your stay at Sezz Saint Tropez!

At the start of summer, lots of events are already happening in Saint-Tropez. One that will delight equestrian fans is the Polo Women’s Cup. The first 100% female tournament will take place at the Polo Club Saint-Tropez from 30th June to 2nd July 2017. The Sezz invites you to take part in a great event and do a good deed at the same time. Let us tell you all about it… 

The summer days are here again, the sun is shining, the weather is nice and it’s lovely and hot at the Sezz Saint Tropez. It’s a great time to take a walk along the coastal path to enjoy the beauty of the sea and scenery. Just grab some comfortable walking shoes, a bottle of water and some sunscreen and go!
