Villa Fiorentina, Renaissance Revival villa in Californie district, Cannes, France.

Villa Fiorentina is a three-storey Renaissance Revival villa at 5 avenue de Poralto in Cannes, with a cream-coloured facade, a ground-floor arcade, and a stone-balustraded balcony running the width of the upper floor. Its terraced gardens, laid out in Tuscan style by Count Philippe Vitali, hold fountains, statues, a Venetian well, a temple of love, and an artificial river.

Built in 1880 for the English parliamentarian Sir Julian Goldsmith, the villa was rented from November 1892 by Count Philippe Vitali, who bought it on 18 March 1894. He had the original English-style park redesigned as Tuscan-inspired terraces with fountains, statues, a Venetian well and an artificial river, and added a winter garden and a Florentine-style chapel on the left side of the villa.

A chapel in Florentine style sits within the grounds and was later claimed by painter Emmanuel Bellini as his art studio, now serving as a small museum. The space shows how the artist worked and displays pieces created there.

The property has been divided into apartments since 1953 and operates as a residential complex today. Visitors should keep in mind that access is limited as the estate remains partly occupied by residents.

During World War I the estate served as a field hospital providing medical care to wounded soldiers within its walls. The Renaissance Revival structure thus played a crucial role in wartime relief efforts.
