For a group of friends or a family vacationing in Saint-Tropez, the Mercedes-Benz V300d 4Matic Extra Long offers the space and comfort to travel together, from the historic center to the beaches of Pampelonne. Direct delivery to the port, hotel, or villa is available, with pick-up also available from Nice Airport for same-day arrivals.
Many people stay in Saint-Tropez in a villa between the hills of Gassin and Ramatuelle, often with friends or multiple generations of the same family. In this situation, one car isn't enough, and two or three become complicated to manage. The Mercedes V300d 4Matic Extra Long solves this problem with just one vehicle.
The van has room for a group or family with lots of luggage: beach bags, suitcases, strollers, and shopping from town can all be easily accommodated. Everyone leaves and returns together, and no one has to worry about taxis, which can be difficult to find in the evenings during the summer.
Saint-Tropez is reached via a main road that is often congested in summer, especially in the late afternoon and on weekends. In the town, parking lots near the port fill up quickly. With a long vehicle, searching for a parking spot during high season can be time-consuming.
For this reason, it's best to leave early in the morning, when the road is clearer, and decide where to leave the van beforehand, such as in a covered parking lot or a hotel garage. In the evening, before leaving, decide who will drive back.
Pampelonne Beach, in the municipality of Ramatuelle, is several kilometers long and home to many beach clubs. It's the destination for almost every beach day. The group arrives together in the van, unloads umbrellas and bags at their leisure, and can decide at the last minute whether to have lunch on the beach or return to the villa.
In the evening, life shifts to the port of Saint-Tropez, with its docked boats and cafés on the pier, and to the Place des Lices, known for its market and pétanque games. Those who prefer a quieter atmosphere can dine in the hilltop villages of Gassin or Ramatuelle, where the evenings are cooler. In both cases, the van takes everyone back to the villa at the same time, eliminating the need to call multiple taxis after dinner.
Many clients land at Nice Airport. From there, the drive to Saint-Tropez is about an hour and a half to two hours in the summer, depending on traffic. This is the type of journey where the van is most appreciated: the group boards with all their luggage and arrives directly at the villa's gate. Alternatively, Toulon-Hyères Airport is closer and can be convenient for some flights.
We can deliver the van to the airport, villa, hotel, or port, and pick it up at a different location. You can then start your holiday in Saint-Tropez and end it in Cannes or Nice , or continue on to Italy.
Port Grimaud, a few kilometers away, is a village built on the water, with canals and colorful houses, a pleasant visit with children. Further inland, the hills of the Massif des Maures offer quiet roads through forests and vineyards. For a longer day trip, the coast towards Cannes and the hinterland of Provence can be reached with an early morning departure.
If you want to combine your van with a car for trips as a couple, an open-top like the Ferrari Roma Spider or the Porsche 911 (992) 4S Cabriolet is perfect for the coastal road. For getting around town, where space is limited, a small Smart Fortwo or the Abarth 595 Turismo Cabrio are very practical. You'll find them among the city cars.
Is a van with a driver available in Saint-Tropez? No: we rent the V-Class, like all our vehicles, only without a driver. During high season, leave early, allow for longer than expected travel times, and choose your parking spot in advance, especially in the evening.
Can you bring the van to your villa? Yes, we deliver and collect from your villa, hotel, port, or airport. Please provide the exact address and any private access.
How long does it take from Nice Airport to Saint-Tropez? In summer, it's about an hour and a half to two hours, but traffic can extend the journey, especially on arrival and departure days.
Is the van suitable for a family with small children? Yes, there's room for a group or family with lots of luggage. Please let us know your children's needs in advance so we can make the necessary arrangements.
Can we also use the van for a trip to Cannes or Monaco? Yes, the vehicle can be used along the entire coast, and the group leaves and returns together.
Can we use a van to reach a wedding in the hills? Yes, the van will take guests from the villa or hotel to the ceremony venue with just one vehicle. The roads in Gassin and Ramatuelle are dark and narrow: decide in advance who will drive the way back.
How late can we cancel free of charge? Up to 72 hours before delivery. In any case, the model remains guaranteed: no exchanges for a different car.
