Riviera · Côte d'Azur · French Riviera

Getting there
Nice Côte d'Azur airport 25 minutes by private chauffeur; Monaco heliport 10 minutes for helicopter transfer.

The peninsula's only grand hotel since 1908 -- 17 acres of gardens, a saltwater pool cut into the rock and a funicular to the private beach club.
EnquireA more intimate neoclassical villa-hotel on the isthmus, with its own beach and a quieter, well-connected clientele.
EnquireThe Grand-Hotel's rock-cut beach club -- a handful of the property's most requested cabana-adjacent rooms for those who never want to leave the pool.
EnquireWhere to eat
The Grand-Hotel's gastronomic dining room, Mediterranean haute cuisine looking out over the gardens to the sea.
1 Michelin starLunch at the rock-pool beach club -- grilled fish and rose within reach of the water.
Insider tableThe port of Saint-Jean's harbourside table -- simple, excellent seafood a few metres from the fishing boats.
Insider tableThings to do
Béatrice de Rothschild's pink Belle Epoque villa and nine themed gardens at the peninsula's neck.
The free public path circling the peninsula past hedge-fund villas and hidden coves -- allow two hours.
Both a short cruise away -- the peninsula makes an ideal quiet base for either.
Insider note
The coastal path around the point is free, spectacular, and sees a fraction of the crowds of the paid sights -- start early to have it to yourself.
