Saint-Tropez

Saint-Tropez is not a town like any other. It is a fishermen's village which, six months a year, becomes one of the most watched stages in the world. The Place des Lices, the Vieux-Port, the alleyways of the Ponche quarter, the Citadelle dominating the bay — everything, here, has remained at human scale. It is this contrast between the intimacy of the setting and the brilliance of its guests that makes its particularity.

Maison Vehira serves here the guests of the peninsula's palaces, the private villas of Ramatuelle and Gassin, the yachts moored at the Vieux-Port, and all those who pass through the beaches of Pampelonne. The service is intense from May to October, rarer thereafter.

The Maison operates here with particular attention to traffic: the peninsula's roads are narrow, saturated in high season, and knowledge of alternative passages between the Citadelle, Ramatuelle and the beaches makes all the difference between a fifteen-minute journey and a forty-five-minute one.

Vehira operates in Saint-Tropez according to the rhythm of the season. Its chauffeurs know the accesses to the perched villas of the peninsula, the protocols of the beaches where one drops off and picks up, the hours when the Place des Lices closes to vehicles, and the bypass routes that save the decisive twenty minutes.

The Maison habitually serves transfers from La Môle or Castellet airports, in by-the-hour service for families installed at their villas, and for conveyance to dinners and soirées that punctuate the Tropezian summer. It also serves yachts moored at the port, with a particular organisation during the Voiles of October.

Its motorcars are Mercedes S-Class or E-Class. For transfers to the beaches, where parking is scarce, the Maison operates in drop-off and pick-up mode, sparing the guest any logistical concern.

Vehira regularly serves the guests of the Tropezian palaces — the Maison permits itself not to name them. It is known to the peninsula's concierges, to the yacht clubs, to the starred restaurants its guests frequent, and to the private properties of Ramatuelle and Gassin where it intervenes on prior instruction.

For yachts moored at the Vieux-Port, the Maison applies a particular by-the-hour protocol at the quayside, with parking on the spaces reserved near the port. During the Voiles, its fleet is reinforced to serve several yachts simultaneously.
