Never a 4 Star

This hotel does not merit 4 stars simple on the basis of the accommodation. The room was so small it was even difficult to lay out 2 cases The shower head was broken.and the furniture left a lot to be desired. It was so close to the main road that sleeping was an ordeal. The only redeeming factor was the view.

Great location on the Mediterranean.

A beautiful setting. Staff was very friendly, room was really nice and opened to the water. Nice location across the bay from Saint-Tropez. Breakfast was expensive and not many choices if you go later, take breakfast elsewhere if you stay. Quiet and comfortable room.

Relaxing one night at Belle Aurore

I stayed for one night and enjoyed my stay: I felt wonderfully relaxed and comfortable. The view from the terrace in room 19 was spectacular and it is well worth rising early for the view of the sunrise!
The hot breakfast was not available when we were and we were told that was because, the chef was not in :/ however, the continental breakfast for exquisite and it didn't deter anything. The only nag I would say I did have was that, the mini bar in the room said it was included. But when finalising the bill at departure, apparently we had to pay for what we had used.
An extremely relaxing and pleasant stay.

It was absolutely lovely! Sitting by the pool or snorkeling in the sea. The view was amazing as were the staff .The food was wonderful but a little pricey. Would have liked an egg with breakfast or some meat. We would have eaten every meal there if it were not for the high cost. But walking into town was very nice as well. We took the ferry over to St Tropez and were so glad we stayed in St Maxime at this hotel instead. The service was Impeccable.

Best find of the trip

Our last stop on a 3 week ladies trip thru Italy and Southern France.
This place was such a surprise find and ended up being our favorite Hotel---because of the excellent food, wonderful staff, the superb water location right on the beach, the quaint easy to get around little town of Saint Maxime, and the easy access by water taxi to Saint Tropez. WIll take my husband back here someday. It is quite a romantic place at sunset.

Perfect location!

How wonderful to wake up each morning with delightful sea views, and breakfast in the restaurant also overlooking the sea. All of the staff were extremely helpful, cheerful and efficient.

We loved our stay there and will go back again.

A dream setting

This hotel is in a dream setting and our suite was beautifully located overlooking the sea with two balconies. The infinity pool was perfect and the staff were delightful. Parking was excellent and done for you. It was only a ten minute walk to the town so we never had to use the car whilst staying at the hotel.
We were disappointed with the 'Gourmet' restaurant menu as we found it very restrictive. Also in the five days we stayed there, the set menu only changed once, so we did not eat there, but there were plenty of restaurants to visit in the town!

Stunning views from rooms and restaurant

Perfect position, easy walking to town, swim in pool or beach. Shopping great and you can catch a ferry to the very busy St Tropez which is preferable than staying there.

This hotel isn't St. Tropez or 4 stars.

The Hotel said it was 2.5 miles from St. Tropez. That is complete fiction if you are driving. The hotel is almost 6 miles to St. Tropez by the only car route available, the trip takes in excess of an hour each way (normal driving hours, not 3:00 AM in the morning) and costs over $100.00 each way. The 2.5 miles the hotel represents it is from St. Tropez is if you are going to swim it. In summary this hotel is nowhere near the activity of St. Tropez nor any of the beach clubs there around. The hotel itself is lacking. The hallways are small, a large person can't stand up in some places, the room we stayed in had no shower and you could not stand up in portions of the bathroom as the ceiling was under 5 feet. The room service is slow and extremely limited (as is the restaurant menu) and while the staff is pleasant, they can't make up for a weak and poorly located (if St. Tropez is what you want) property. The frontage on the Ocean is a plus. Despite the disruption of having to move early we left after one day and went to a better hotel in St. Tropez, where we had a great time (better location, food and physical plant). If you are looking for a St. Tropez holiday, keep looking beyond this hotel.

One night stopover

Good hotel in a convenient location with a great pool. Lovely private balcony over looking the bay. Private parking was useful. Nice restaurant.

Room was a little small and the curtain dividing shower room and basin meant it wasn't separate from the bed. W/C is behind its own door though.

Fabulous location, close to town restaurants and shops. We had a small room but huge balcony which had views of at tropez and the hotel pool. Photos shown here are exactly what you see from your room. We will definitely be back!

Nice hotel with amazing views

The hotel has amazing views and is the only one that directly overlooks the sea. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The food in the hotel is very good. However, the food (breakfast and dinner) and drinks are incredibly expensive. You don't have to eat either there and there are plenty of local restaurants and bars. Not quite four star finesse or facilities in the room but you are paying for the view. We would return despite the cost

Sumptuous food in a beautiful location.

A wonderful location, with the Med lapping at your feet and views directly across to St Tropez and yet a short walk along the prom to the busy small town of Ste Maxime where there are numerous shops , restaurants and entertainment.
The hotel has been beautifully redecorated and is tasteful and elegant, particularly in the restaurant. Our Junior suite was all that we required although the shower which was over the bath and had a shower curtain was not up to the standard of the rest of the room.
Having breakfast in your room, or rather on one of the balconies from our room was delightful( and at no extra cost!)
The staff were welcoming and helpful and always addressed you by name.
Added bonuses were the parking facilities on site and of course the infinity pool which was adjacent to the rocks and the outdoor seating and lounging areas.
When we returned home we missed the sound of the sea lapping onto the rocks which we could hear clearly from bed until we closed both the shutters and windows.

Fantastic location

A wonderful little hotel with fantastic views of the bay of St Tropez. The staff were all, without exception, charming, helpful and accommodating.The rooms are very clean and simple but the views from the balcony are breath-taking. The only thing would have liked different is an option of a simple (cheaper) continental breakfast.
