Golf de Beauvallon
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the absolute best time to play Golf de Beauvallon without the crowds?
We always recommend late spring (May-June) or early autumn (September-October) for Beauvallon. You'll enjoy fantastic weather without the peak summer tourist rush, meaning a more relaxed pace and easier tee time bookings. The course conditions are typically superb during these shoulder seasons, offering lush fairways and true greens.
What's the biggest challenge golfers face at Golf de Beauvallon?
Don't let the seemingly flat front nine fool you; the back nine at Beauvallon is where the real test begins, especially with its elevation changes and tighter fairways. The wind off the Gulf of Saint-Tropez can also be a major factor, so be prepared to adjust your club selection, particularly on the exposed holes. It's a course that rewards precision over power.
Are the views at Golf de Beauvallon really as stunning as people say?
Absolutely, the views are a major highlight and truly unforgettable, especially from the higher points on the back nine. You'll be treated to panoramic vistas of the sparkling Mediterranean Sea and the iconic Saint-Tropez bay, which can be quite distracting - in the best way possible! We particularly love the perspective from the 14th tee, it's a perfect photo opportunity.
Is Golf de Beauvallon a good value for the green fee, or is it overpriced?
We find Beauvallon offers solid value, especially considering its prime location on the French Riviera and those incredible views. While not a budget course, the green fees are competitive for the region, and you're paying for a well-maintained track with a genuinely unique setting. We suggest checking their website for twilight rates or package deals if you're looking to maximize your value.
What's the best way to unwind after a round at Beauvallon?
After your round, we highly recommend grabbing a drink or a light meal at the clubhouse terrace - the views over the course and towards the sea are just lovely. For something more substantial, take a short drive into Sainte-Maxime; it's less glitzy than Saint-Tropez but has some fantastic local restaurants where you can enjoy authentic Provençal cuisine. Don't miss the fresh seafood!
