Pool day passes in Saint-Tropez are harder to find than you'd expect. Most hotels on the peninsula keep their pools strictly for overnight guests. The real options are spa day packages, wellness retreats, and one very famous pool party venue on Pampelonne Beach.
Prices range from €100 for a sunbed at Nikki Beach to €250 for a full spa day at Hotel Byblos. Two of the four options are in Ramatuelle and La Croix-Valmer, not the village itself; you'll need a car or taxi to reach them.
The season runs from late April through mid-October. July and August are peak months when prices are highest and poolside beds at Nikki Beach fill up fast. Book at least a week ahead in summer; May, June, and September offer the best balance of weather and price.
- Nikki Beach Saint-Tropez (from €100 / about $106). The only major beach club on Pampelonne built around a pool, not the sea.
- Hotel Byblos (Spa by Sisley) (€250 / about $265). Spa treatment plus heated pool access in the heart of the village.
- MUSE Saint-Tropez (€220 / about $233). Boutique wellness retreat with a mirror pool in Ramatuelle.
- Lily of the Valley (€200 / about $212). Philippe Starck-designed wellness hotel in La Croix-Valmer.

Can non-guests use hotel pools in Saint-Tropez?

Where to stay in Saint-Tropez
The village of Saint-Tropez is the most atmospheric base: the port, the market on Place des Lices, and the restaurants around the harbour all within walking distance. Hotel Byblos is the most iconic hotel in the village, right in the centre, with a spa day pass on this page. For something quieter and more countryside-feeling, Mas de Chastelas is a boutique hotel in an old farmhouse just outside the village.
Pampelonne Beach, 5km from the village, is where Nikki Beach and most of the beach clubs are. Getting there requires a car, taxi, or bike. If your priority is beach club access rather than village sightseeing, basing yourself closer to Pampelonne (Ramatuelle, Tahiti Plage area) is more practical.
Nikki Beach Saint-Tropez
Nikki Beach is the high-energy option: DJs, champagne service, oversized sunbeds, and a crowd that's there to be seen. It's the only major beach club on Pampelonne that's centred around a pool rather than the sea, which makes it a genuinely different experience from the rest of the strip.
A single sunbed starts at €100 and includes a towel. Pool beds for up to three people start at €200 but carry a minimum food and drink spend of €500 or more; budget accordingly. Prices rise significantly in July and August.

>> Click here for info and current pricing <<Hotel Byblos (Spa by Sisley)
Hotel Byblos is a legendary Palace hotel in the heart of the village, and its Day Pass is the most exclusive option here. You get a 60-minute Sisley spa treatment, access to the steam room and sauna, and use of the heated outdoor pool, which is otherwise strictly for overnight guests.
At €250 it's the priciest, but it's also the most central, walkable from the port and the village square. Byblos tends to offer day passes in shoulder season (May through late June, and September) rather than peak summer weeks.

MUSE Saint-Tropez
MUSE Saint-Tropez is a boutique wellness retreat in Ramatuelle, about 10 minutes from the village by car. The property is centred around a mirror pool surrounded by private cabanas; the atmosphere is entirely different from Nikki Beach.
Their Wellness Day Experience (€220) includes a 2-course lunch, a 50-minute massage, and pool access for the day. It's the most comprehensive package here if you want recovery rather than a party.

Lily of the Valley
Lily of the Valley is a Philippe Starck-designed 5-star wellness hotel in La Croix-Valmer, about 20 minutes down the coast. Day access comes via their Shape Club package (€200), which includes fitness classes, gym access, and use of the semi-Olympic heated pool. Lunch is available as an add-on.
It's the furthest from the village but the best choice if you're combining a swim with serious exercise or staying on the southern Var coast.

Frequently asked questions
Do the beach clubs on Pampelonne have pools?
Mostly, no. Famous clubs like Club 55, Bagatelle, and Loulou are on the sand and offer sea swimming only. Nikki Beach is the main exception; it's set slightly back from the sea and built entirely around a pool.
Can I go to the pool at Hotel de Paris Saint-Tropez?
The glass-bottom rooftop pool at Hotel de Paris is reserved for hotel guests. Non-guests can visit the rooftop bar and restaurant for drinks or dinner, but swimming day passes are not available.
Is the pool at Airelles Château de la Messardière open to non-guests?
Access is very limited. Non-guests can dine at the restaurants (including Matsuhisa), but pool access generally requires a room booking or a high-tier spa reservation.
