A Riviera Icon Reimagined: Le Beauvallon Opens Its Doors to Guests for the First Time in Nearly a Decade
Le Beauvallon, which first opened in 1914, distils the essence of the Cote D'Azur lifestyle: a striking Belle Epoque palace, 10 acres of terraces and gardens with palms and umbrella pines overlooking the Bay of Saint-Tropez, a glamorous Mediterranean beach club, and a private pontoon for yacht tenders. Occupying a beachside location and adjacent to the renowned Golf Club de Beauvallon, the hotel is only eight minutes by boat from the vibrant heart of 'St Trop' on the other side of the bay. After nearly a decade of playing host to unforgettable celebrations and events, this Riviera icon is beginning a new chapter. Our 25 sea-facing suites will be available for individual guest stays. The shift, from a private events venue to a classic hotel, will appeal to guests in search of a last minute, hyper-exclusive summer vacation — with suites available from 1 July to 31 October 2025. The news also marks the first part of a significant two-phase development for Le Beauvallon in collaboration with the COMO brand — a family-owned, luxury hospitality company founded by Mrs Christina Ong. Over the last 30 years, COMO, headquartered in Singapore, has developed a portfolio hotels, resorts and private islands in 20 destinations worldwide. The brand is renowned for precise service, holistic wellness, and exceptional, Michelin-starred cuisine. Marking a vibrant new chapter, the hotel's iconic beach club unveils a bold and original culinary concept for summer 2025. Guests are invited to savour an inventive fusion of Asian and Mediterranean flavours, served with panoramic views of the Bay of Saint-Tropez in a relaxed, sun-soaked seaside atmosphere. For next year, COMO Le Beauvallon will launch new culinary concepts created by Yannick Alléno, a visionary chef and the most decorated talent in the Michelin Guide, with 17 stars to his name.
