Located in the heart of the Mediterranean, the Giens Peninsula embodies a more discreet French Riviera, focused on nature and the good life. Buying a villa in this exceptional area means choosing a preserved lifestyle, between wild coves, sandy beaches, and Provençal traditions. More secluded than the iconic resorts of the Riviera, the region attracts a discerning clientele in search of authenticity and sea views. It stretches around the peninsula and the surrounding towns: La Londe-les-Maures, Hyères, Carqueiranne, Le Pradet, La Garde, Toulon, La Seyne-sur-Mer, and Saint-Mandrier-sur-Mer.

The Giens peninsula, attached to the town of Hyères, is one of the most iconic natural sites on the Var coast. Connected to the mainland by two sandbars, called tombolos, it offers an exceptional setting where lagoons, salt marshes, and pine forests rub shoulders with the Mediterranean. Nature lovers will find a sanctuary here, with the pink flamingos of the Pesquiers pond, coastal paths overlooking turquoise coves and the immediate proximity of the Îles d'Or—Porquerolles, Port-Cros, and Le Levant—true jewels of the national park. Here, the art of living is in tune with the rhythm of the wind and waves, appealing to sailing and diving enthusiasts as well as lovers of outdoor walks.
The region is not only rich in maritime landscapes: it also tells the story of a coastline shaped by seaside epics and Provençal tradition. Hyères, nicknamed the city of palm trees, combines Belle Époque villas, colorful markets, and exotic gardens. La Londe-les-Maures stretches its renowned vineyards down to the beaches, while Carqueiranne cultivates a family-friendly and elegant atmosphere, conducive to a peaceful life by the water. Further north, Le Pradet and La Garde combine unspoiled beaches with mining and military heritage. Finally, Toulon and La Seyne-sur-Mer, the historic home port of the French Navy, are reinventing their waterfront with modern marinas and cultural spaces. As for Saint-Mandrier-sur-Mer, a small, unspoiled gem at the tip of the peninsula, it charms visitors with its authentic Mediterranean character and peaceful pace of life, far from the hustle and bustle of city life.
The luxury real estate market on the Giens peninsula and its surroundings is distinguished by the variety and rarity of its properties. Contemporary villas with panoramic views, Provençal residences nestled in greenery, waterfront properties, or prestigious apartments on the seafront: each address combines elegance and uniqueness. The peninsula particularly attracts buyers looking for secluded villas, often surrounded by large wooded grounds, while La Londe and Carqueiranne appeal for their Mediterranean-style bastides. In Toulon and La Seyne, new luxury developments sit alongside renovated old houses, offering an attractive alternative for those looking for a high-potential investment property.
Buying a villa in Giens, Hyères, or one of the neighboring towns means treating yourself to much more than a second home: it means gaining access to a lifestyle where nature, culture, and authenticity come together. In this market, where prestigious transactions remain confidential and coveted, prices reflect the rarity and quality of the properties on offer. Whether it's a contemporary residence overlooking the sea, a family home near the coves, or a high-end apartment in the heart of a marina, investing here means betting on lasting value, sheltered from passing fads.
