Where to Stay

Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat: Stay at the Royal Riviera Hotel. A beautiful, old world hotel updated with all the modern boutique hotel conveniences. Ask for a sea/garden view room – especially one with it’s own small balcony. The restaurant, bar and pool are wonderful. We wished breakfast on the expansive veranda could last all day. The private beach with lounge chairs, umbrellas and waiter service is small and lovely (private beaches aren’t easy to come by). Concierge took care of every question/need we had. Spa is small (Four Seasons is another spa option). Easy walk to town of Beaulieu-sur-Mer or to tip of Cap.
