Villa in Saint-Raphael
Reasons to book
About this villa rental
Located in the highly sought-after Port Santa Lucia district of Saint-Raphaël, just a few steps from the marina and its charming restaurants, the exceptional Villa Marine awaits you.
This unique 19th-century property, once owned by a renowned French poet and journalist, beautifully combines historic charm with modern living comfort.
The Property
Set within a magnificent 2,700 m² landscaped botanical garden (protected and classified), the villa offers complete privacy surrounded by lush Mediterranean vegetation.
With 280 m² of living space, the villa features:
- Spacious living area (100 m²) with a fireplace
- Veranda overlooking the greenery
- Master suite (50 m²) with a double walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom
- 3 additional bedrooms
- 2 additional bathrooms + 1 shower room
- Small home theater
- Garage + 3 parking spaces
- Capacity: up to 8 guests + children
- Naturally Comfortable – Even in Summer
The villa is intentionally not equipped with air conditioning, as its architecture provides a naturally pleasant indoor climate.
During the complete renovation, the house was thoroughly insulated. The traditional natural stone walls, approximately 50 cm thick, together with the lush surrounding vegetation, ensure natural coolness indoors even on hot summer days.
This historic construction method creates a consistently comfortable living environment without artificial cooling (allergy-friendly)—quiet, sustainable, and in harmony with the architecture of the Côte d'Azur.
Comfort & Services
For a completely relaxing stay, the following services are available:
- Concierge service available (upon request)

- “Everything within walking distance”—harbor, restaurants, shops

A Place with a Future
The villa will also benefit from the upcoming high-end redevelopment of Saint-Raphaël’s waterfront promenade—an investment in both location and quality of life.
A Truly Unique Property
Villa Marine is far more than a vacation home—it is a place with history, style, and soul. Perfect for guests seeking peace, privacy, and an exceptional atmosphere on the French Riviera.
A personal welcome upon arrival and check-out. During your stay, we remain fully available at all times.
A dedicated contact person is available throughout your stay to ensure everything runs smoothly—discreetly and reliably.
Please note that the villa has no air conditioning. This is a deliberate choice, made to promote a more natural and allergy-friendly indoor environment. Thanks to high-quality insulation, natural stone walls approximately 50 cm thick, and the surrounding vegetation, the house remains pleasantly cool even in summer.
This is a non-smoking property (smoking indoors is not permitted). Pets are allowed only upon prior request. The villa is ideal for families with children.
Parties and events are permitted only with prior approval. The villa is particularly suited for quiet stays in an exclusive setting.
Concierge services (e.g., cleaning, groceries, transfers) can be arranged upon request.
