La Cachette
A villa for rent in the heart of Saint-Tropez
The maquis green kitchen of La Cachette.
Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, just a two-minute walk from Place des Lices, La Cachette truly lives up to its name. This peaceful haven offers the best of both worlds: the lively charm of Saint-Tropez at your doorstep, with shops and restaurants just moments away, and a tranquil retreat whenever you need a moment of calm.
Designed for six guests, this 1950s villa is thoughtfully arranged, featuring a spacious living area that flows effortlessly into the outdoors, with a kitchen and lounge at its heart. Each of the three bedrooms comes with its own en-suite bathroom, ensuring privacy and comfort. At the back, a terrace framed by lush Mediterranean greenery provides the perfect setting for family dinners or relaxed evenings with friends. Beneath the shade of a century-old wisteria, guests can embrace the Côte d’Azur’s laid-back lifestyle, accompanied by the gentle hum of cicadas. To complete the experience, a dedicated house manager is on hand to ensure a seamless and stress-free stay.

Built in 1956, La Cachette is set in a neighborhood originally home to workers from the local torpedo factory. This working-class heritage is reflected in its neo-Provençal architecture, where cinder blocks meet classic Mediterranean roof tiles. In 2022, the Lottero family acquired the house, adding it to the Casalero collection, a venture founded by Linda and Fabian. Driven by their passion for exceptional properties, the duo envisioned Casalero as a carefully curated selection of authentic homes, designed to create unforgettable family memories.
Renovated in 2015 by interior architect Yohan Lemercier, the former owner of La Cachette, the house has regained its original charm. The project sought to breathe new life into this understated home, preserving its traditional architecture while modernizing the spaces. The result? A seamless blend of natural wood flooring, marble kitchen countertops, and Mediterranean accents, including Hermès wallpaper by Jeff Fisher, a tribute to the local maquis. Every detail in the décor reflects meticulous curation—from wicker baskets and ceramic jars nodding to Provençal traditions to the vintage furniture carefully sourced by Yohan and his partner. The color palette—maquis green, Mediterranean blue, and sunny yellow—fills the house with light, mirroring the hues of the surrounding landscape.
Just a ten-minute drive from the beaches, La Cachette offers the perfect balance between sun-soaked days by the water and lively evenings in the village. Philippa, the dedicated host, provides personalized service, taking care of everything from grocery shopping and activity planning to sharing insider recommendations on the best local spots. Her top picks? A coffee on the terrace at Bar Sénéquier, a visit to the market at Place des Lices to stock up on local delicacies, and a seafood platter with a sea view at Bagatelle St. Tropez. All excellent choices!

Acquired in 2022, the villa underwent a complete transformation, with only the load-bearing walls preserved from the original structure. The brothers reimagined every detail, crafting a space that seamlessly blends Provençal heritage—ceramics, terracotta, and natural materials—with a distinctly contemporary design. Surrounding the villa is a sprawling 2,500 m² garden, where guests can wander among pink laurels, palm trees, and lush Mediterranean flora. In this oasis, which exudes a touch of Saint-Barthélemy charm, Nelson—a former artistic director—designed a décor that harmonizes Provence with modernity, a reflection of both his personal aesthetic and his brother’s vision.
Just 15 minutes from Saint-Tropez, Villa Cerramica offers the perfect balance between experiencing the best of the French Riviera and escaping the summer crowds of the Gulf. The ideal day? Begin with a stroll through the medieval village of Grimaud, where cobbled streets, a ruined castle, and a charming Provençal market set the scene. Then, head to Saint-Tropez to wander along the harbor, browse boutiques and art galleries, and savor fresh seafood on a terrace or at the Sainte-Maxime Covered Market. End the day with a leisurely walk along the coastal trail before retreating to the tranquility of Villa Cerramica.
