Stay in luxury and explore extravagance at these nearby hotspots.
I once mistook Saint-Tropez for an island—my husband led us there via a scenic boat from Saint-Raphaël. (Drive time from our site: about 1 hour.) The ferry delivers you harborside, prime for admiring superyachts.
Relax on the boulevard terrace with a Piscine cocktail (€10/glass), eyes on the mega-yachts. Don't miss the charming old town's winding streets.
Cannes escalates the glamour—yachts dwarf Saint-Tropez's (one even had a helipad!). Just 45 minutes from Fréjus, the harbor dazzles.
Spot Lamborghinis along Boulevard de la Croisette, flanked by beaches, marinas, and iconic hotels. Stroll its 2km to the Palais des Festivals; kids love the celebrity handprints, sparking fun chats.
Crave boating? Head 50 minutes to Port Grimaud, a Venice-like gem. Rent a whisper boat to navigate canals—let kids steer on calm, windless days for safe fun.
Fréjus' boulevard suits evening beach strolls and trampolines for kids. Beaches are 4km from site—perfect day trips. Our Yelloh! Village holiday blended site luxuries with these gems.
