Villa Hippocampe

Villa Hippocampe’s five accommodations include two suites with different views, a family suite, an economy double room and a superior room with a king-size bed. Their sizes range from 29 to 50 m². The suites and rooms have a private bathroom, air conditioning, a balcony and a terrace. Each accommodation also has a coffee machine and a sauna.

The views distinguish the rooms: some overlook the Mediterranean, while others face the garden. The 50 m² family suite has bunk beds in addition to a large double bed. The suite with a garden view has twin beds, while the superior room has an extra-large double bed. Each room has a private swimming pool; soundproofing and a minibar are also available in several accommodations.

Villa Hippocampe’s facilities focus on outdoor activities and spending time by the water. The indoor swimming pool is heated, and the property has a beach and water sports facilities on site. The garden, sun terrace, outdoor furniture and outdoor dining areas let you enjoy the coast at different times of day. Sun loungers and parasols are also available.

Activities on offer include snorkelling, scuba diving, canoeing, windsurfing, fishing, cycling, hiking and horse riding. The villa also arranges walking and cycling tours, tours about local culture and bicycle hire. For relaxation, facilities include a sauna, hot tub, solarium and massages. A shuttle service, luggage storage, concierge service and tour desk complete the property’s facilities.

Sanary-sur-Mer stretches along the Provençal coast, with small coves, beaches and residential neighbourhoods facing the Mediterranean. At Cap Nègre, the landscape is defined by rocks, pine trees and access to the sea; walks alternate between the shoreline and green spaces. The area suits travellers looking to prioritise swimming, water sports and outdoor activities while staying in the setting of a port town.

Les Criques du Cap Nègre are 80 m away, and Parc de la Méditerranée, with its paths and walking areas, is 190 m away. Maison du Cygne hosts art exhibitions in a leafy park, 740 m away. Further afield, Sanary harbour and its old town offer a chance to explore the quays, boats and Provençal lanes. Ollioules-Sanary train station is 2.7 km away; a car is useful for exploring other villages and beaches along the coast. Toulon-Hyères Airport is 26 km away.

Spring and early autumn are good times for coastal walks, when temperatures are pleasant for exploring on foot and visiting the surrounding area. In summer, beaches and coves are busier; it is best to plan outings for early in the day or late afternoon. A day could combine a morning swim, a walk in the park and a visit to Sanary harbour. Those who enjoy the sea can also take part in the water sports available along this Mediterranean coast.
