Between Nice and Monaco, with sensational views of Cap Ferrat, this is luxury
living on the Côte d'Azur in an architect-designed villa with state-of-the-art
features and a level of service you would expect from a five-star hotel.
Set in the hills behind Villefranche-sur-Mer and looking out towards
mesmerising Mediterranean landscapes, Villa La Rade exudes high-end
elegance, yet always strives to respect its environmental heritage and
surroundings. In the six en suite bedrooms, most with balconies or terraces,
you will find organic linen whilst art can be admired throughout the home,
thoughtfully curated by the Art Director to showcase new artists or specific
themes. With its unique aspects, beautiful furnishings and incredible vistas,
this exclusive abode is all about an understated sense of splendour alongside
true escapism.
Spend your time relaxing in the spa with its sauna and heated indoor
swimming pool crafted in natural stone, watch movies in the home-cinema and
work out in the fitness room with Technogym equipment. Pour a glass of wine
from the extensive French collection and step out to the upper balcony to look
out at the glistening sea. Yet more views can be enjoyed from the heated
outdoor swimming pool, especially when gathering by the poolside kitchen and
plancha to dine al-fresco with family and friends.
A cook is on hand to prepare complimentary breakfasts alongside delicious
meals with an emphasis on organic produce – the menus are overseen by a
Michelin-starred chef (a table in his restaurant near St Paul de Vence can also
be reserved). Furthermore, butler and housekeeping services are included as
are airport transfers, 24/7 concierge and VIP access to a beach restaurant
near Monaco – a front-row position is reserved! Please note all food and drink must be paid for excluding breakfast and water which is provided complimentary. Moments away from Villefranche-sur-Mer, one of the French Riviera’s most
idyllic bays, explore the charming fishing village with its historic old town,
pretty cafes and waterfront restaurants. Swim or kayak in the gorgeous bay at
the town’s beach or take advantage of the numerous walking trails as far as
Nice or Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and beyond. Indeed, the peninsula of Cap Ferrat is a paradise for hikers with its stunning
landscapes and sea views, home to the iconic Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild.
Then enjoy the beaches of Beaulieu-sur-Mer, dine Michelin-style in Èze, soak up the glamour of Cannes or drive to picture-perfect villages and market towns
dotted across olive groves, woodland and hills such as Vence, Grasse and
Valbonne.
From the possibility of a daily chauffeur service to helicopter and private boat
tours, no doubt your dedicated concierge will be able to help you make the
most of your stay in this beguiling part of the French Riviera.
