Palais Maeterlinck, Private palace on Cap de Nice, France
The Palais Maeterlinck sits on a four-hectare estate with 600 meters of Mediterranean Sea frontage and features neo-classical Florentine architecture.
Belgian Nobel laureate Maurice Maeterlinck purchased this unfinished property in 1930 for two million francs and transformed it into his residence, Villa Orlamonde.
The palace hosted notable gatherings with guests including Charlie Chaplin and Antoine de Saint-Exupéry during its golden age in the 1930s.
The former hotel property now houses eighteen luxury apartments, combining original architectural elements with modern residential amenities.
Two Louis XV-style basins bordered by Ionic columns and massive onyx bathtubs remain preserved within the estate's 6,000 square meters.
