France · Cap d’Antibes and Saint-Tropez
French Riviera
The Riviera, at the water’s edge.
From the gardens of Cap d’Antibes to the beach and hills around Saint-Tropez, these hotels give the Riviera three different rhythms.
The French Riviera is better treated as a series of bases than a single coast. Cap d’Antibes has sea-facing gardens and a long hotel tradition. Saint-Tropez has a village, beaches and a social season that can make even short road journeys slow in summer.
Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc is the great headland address. Cheval Blanc St-Tropez is directly beside the water near the village. Château de La Messardière sits above Pampelonne in broad grounds. Pick one base for a short stay, or divide a longer trip between the cap and Saint-Tropez.

Getting there
Arriving in French Riviera.
Each hotel page lists its address, check-in times and the hotel's own transfer times.
Good to know
- Cap d’Antibes and Saint-Tropez are separate bases; do not assume a quick summer transfer.
- Hotel and beach-club opening dates vary.
- Confirm whether the room faces the sea, gardens or village.
Practical
Before you go.
- Getting there
- Nice Côte d’Azur Airport is the main gateway for Cap d’Antibes. Saint-Tropez is further west; allow for summer road traffic.
- When to go
- May, June and September balance warm weather with easier travel. July and August are busy; several hotels close for part of winter.

- Our tip
- For a short stay, stay close to the beach or village you plan to use most. Summer drives across the region can take far longer than the map suggests.
