Hotel du Cap

Hotel du Cap occupies a 22-acre estate at the southern tip of the Antibes peninsula, offering 117 accommodations spread across five separate buildings. The property includes several restaurants, private beaches, and gardens that extend to the water.

The estate began in 1870 as a private villa and was converted into a hotel in 1889 under the management of an Italian hotelier. It underwent a transformation in the 1920s when American guests began spending the summer months on the French Riviera.

The name refers to the headland where the property sits and which has established itself over the years as a retreat for artists. The estate itself became the setting for numerous film shoots and still displays the style that attracted many writers in the middle of the last century.

The property opens each spring and remains accessible until autumn. Visitors wishing to explore the gardens or coastal grounds should bring comfortable shoes.

A seawater pool was carved into the coastal rock formation, positioned directly on the Mediterranean. The view from there extends far across the open sea.
