MONIQUE HOLLINGER
THE PROPERTY MOGUL AT HER HOME AND ON THE SEA IN ST TROPEZ
OPENS UP HER STUNNING PENTHOUSE AND FINALLY SETS SAIL ON BOARD THE YACHT SHE ALWAYS DREAMT OF
‘I wanted a yacht so we could launch into a new adventure with the kids. For 23 years, I used to go and look at the boats in the marina — and now here I am’
Monique relaxes on board her yacht – luxuriously kitted out for dining (left) – on the water near her home in St Tropez. Like the family’s ski chalet, its name, Melt, is a combination of their initials: M for Monique, E and L for children Estelle, 20, and Louis, 22, and T for husband Thomas
Monique didn’t alter much on the yacht, which was already decorated using onyx, her favourite stone.

Glamorous property magnateMonique Hollinger is very much at home in the exclusive Riviera resort of St Tropez – literally, since she and her husband Thomas have a spectacular penthouse there, where they’ve spent summers for the past two decades.
