Lou Pinet Saint-Tropez: Vintage Chic on the French Riviera

Hôtel Lou Pinet is a five-star boutique hotel in Saint-Tropez, part of the Maisons Pariente collection alongside Crillon le Brave in Provence, Le Coucou in Méribel, and Le Grand Mazarin in Paris.

Since the Pariente family took over in 2017, bringing in architect Charles Zana, landscape designer Jean Mus, and Riccardo Giraudi of BeefBar, it has been one of the Riviera’s most quietly coveted addresses.
