!e timeless elegance

of Pampelonne

On the golden sands of Pampelonne, sheltered by tamarisks and

Provençal reeds, Club 55 has embodied a certain vision of Mediterranean

happiness for nearly seventy years. More than a beachside restaurant,

it is a philosophy: one of effortless elegance, where luxury is measured

by authenticity and hospitality is elevated to an art of living.

The story began in 1955, when Geneviève and Bernard de Colmont

prepared meals for the cast and crew of *And God Created Woman*.

From that simple family beach hut grew a legend, passed down with

passion through the generations. Today, their daughter Véronique and

granddaughter Camille lovingly preserve this remarkable heritage,

safeguarding the spirit of the place while bringing their own sensitivity

and vision. Under their care, Club 55 remains the family table that

became an icon, where every detail reflects sincerity and warmth.

The cuisine tells the story of this enduring commitment to its roots. The

vegetables featured in the celebrated crudités basket come from the

family’s own pesticide-free gardens at Château de la Mole, Domaine

des Bouis and Domaine de Piegros. Carefully pressed olive oil, refined

organic wines, simply grilled wild fish, plancha-cooked sardines and

the famous onion tart all express a genuine Mediterranean cuisine in

which the quality of the ingredients takes centre stage.

Beneath the white-and-blue tablecloths billowing gently in the sea

breeze, international celebrities and Saint-Tropez families gather in an

atmosphere of effortless harmony. Time seems to slow down here, far

from the bustle of the Riviera. Club 55 is not merely a destination; it

is an experience — one of those rare lunches that inevitably become

unforgettable memories.
