... just don´t dig the "35€ soft drinks" vibe that has ruined St Tropez for me.
He he, I always try to keep away from the really overpriced bars in St. Tropez (Maison Blanche, the VIP room, Papagayo, Tsar Folie's ....), and, to their credit, they closed the worst of them, La Volle Rouge, in 2011... for noise violation, LOL. If you do your research, and pick well, you can get good value in Saint Tropez at, say, Cafe de Paris, and Brasserie des Arts, etc. For me the Rivea restaurant is not really over-priced for a one star with a menu designed by Alain Ducasse--it is actually good value, in a way, for Saint Tropez. But, that said, Saint Tropez is not really a place I like to stay for long--there are much better places in the vicinity not far away....
