Properties in Les Salins changed hands at an average of €11,800 per square metre in the first half of 2026, a figure that sits 12 per cent below the 2024 peak recorded by local notaries.
The gap matters now because foreign capital has returned to the Riviera after a two-year pause tied to higher borrowing costs, yet many purchasers are avoiding the most exposed waterfront strips. Les Salins sits five minutes by car from the Vieux Port and the Place des Lices market, giving residents the same access to the Saint-Tropez Yacht Club moorings and the weekly produce stalls without paying the €18,000-plus per square metre commanded along the quayside.
Two new short-let regulations introduced by the mairie in March 2026 capped nightly rentals at 90 days a year for non-resident owners, a move that has already trimmed speculative listings in the lower town but left Les Salins largely untouched because most homes there serve as primary or long-stay second residences.
Deeds filed at the Saint-Tropez greffe show five villas on Rue des Salins and Chemin de la Garoupe sold between January and June for sums ranging from €3.9 million to €6.1 million, all under the asking prices posted twelve months earlier. One 280-square-metre property with a 1,200-square-metre garden on Rue des Salins closed at €4.4 million on 14 May, according to the same registry.
Local agents report that view corridors toward the Île de Levant remain intact in this pocket, a planning constraint that has limited new construction since the 2018 revision of the PLU and preserved scarcity.
Prospective buyers should inspect listings before the September rentrée, when seasonal owners typically release stock and the window for negotiation narrows ahead of the winter rental season.
