Sea-view villas and apartments above France's great naval harbour, a boat ride from the Golden Isles
As featured in
A navy town with beaches, islands and a mountain at its back
Toulon is mostly seen from the sea. It is France's principal naval port, and its harbour, the rade, is often called one of the finest natural anchorages in Europe. Mont Faron rises behind the city, 584 metres of limestone and pine, and along the shore runs a stretch of coast that most of the Côte d'Azur crowd drives straight past. Those who stop for a while tend to keep coming back.
Our Toulon collection runs to 40 villas and apartments. There are sea-view apartments in Le Mourillon and Cap Brun, villas on the slopes of Mont Faron and on the Saint-Mandrier peninsula, and larger houses further along the Var coast towards Porquerolles and Saint-Tropez, many with pools and the largest with 11 bedrooms.
This guide covers the city, its coast and islands, and the best months to come.

Le Mourillon and Cap Brun for city beaches and sea views, Mont Faron for hillside villas above the harbour, Saint-Mandrier for a quieter peninsula, and the coast east towards Le Lavandou and Saint-Tropez for larger villas.
The city's seaside, just east of the arsenal
Le Mourillon was once the fishermen's quarter. Today it is where Toulon goes to swim, with a run of sheltered sandy coves below the walls of Fort Saint-Louis, cafés along the seafront and a morning market of its own. Apartments here put the beach at the end of the street and the old town a short drive away.
Cap Brun, further east, is greener and quieter. Its villas sit among umbrella pines on the slopes above the sea, and the coastal path winds below them past small rocky inlets. It is the part of Toulon that feels least like a city.

Warships, water buses and a view from the top
Grey warships are a fixture of the harbour, and the Musée National de la Marine, at the old arsenal gate, tells the story of the port, which goes back to the age of sail. Toulon also launched a famous career: the young Bonaparte first made his name here at the siege of 1793.
The city's water buses cross the rade to La Seyne, Tamaris and Saint-Mandrier, which makes a very cheap harbour cruise. For the full panorama, a cable car runs up Mont Faron for most of the year. At the top you'll find walking trails and a memorial to the Allied landings in Provence in August 1944.

Porquerolles, Port-Cros and the road east
Porquerolles is the great day out. From April to November boats leave from Toulon, Les Sablettes and Saint-Mandrier, and all year round a crossing of around twenty minutes runs from La Tour Fondue on the Giens peninsula. Bring a bicycle, or hire one there, and you can reach beaches of pale sand and clear water. Its wilder neighbour, Port-Cros, has been at the heart of a national park since 1963.
Head east and the coast becomes the Corniche des Maures, running past Le Lavandou towards La Croix-Valmer and Saint-Tropez, where some of our larger villas are found. Inland, the Sainte-Baume massif is a cooler place to walk on hot days.

Cade on the cours, Bandol in the glass
The market on the Cours Lafayette takes over the old town every morning except Monday, with stalls of Var vegetables, cheese, olives and flowers. At the bottom, on Place Louis Blanc, a cart sells cade, Toulon's chickpea flatbread cooked over a wood fire. Eat it warm with pepper. The vineyards of Bandol are a short drive west, and their Mourvèdre reds are some of the best in Provence.
July and August are hot and busy. May, June and September are kinder for the islands and the coast path, and on match days the city turns out in red and black for its rugby club. Our concierge can arrange boats to the islands, wine visits, tables and transfers.

The right house, not the nearest one
Toulon's villas are spread across city beaches, hillsides, a peninsula and the coast beyond, and we know which are a short walk from the sea and which need a car. With 40 properties in Toulon, we can usually find the house that suits you rather than the one that happens to be free. Search by size, pool, location and price, or tell us what you have in mind and we will put together a shortlist.
Book direct
You book with us directly, with no booking fees. Questions about access, parking, pool heating or how far it really is to the nearest beach go to people who can find out the answer.
A concierge who knows the territory
Boat charters to Porquerolles and Port-Cros, Bandol wine visits, restaurant tables, a private chef, car hire and transfers from Toulon-Hyères or Marseille. Our concierge team arranges all of it, leaving you free to decide which terrace to sit on.
A house for every kind of party
Couples, families with small children, three generations together or a crowd of friends celebrating a birthday: we match the house to the group, down to the number of bathrooms and whether the pool is fenced.

Can you visit Porquerolles from Toulon?
