Hotel Belles Rives

Cap d Antibes - Juan Les Pins, France

This hotel is seasonal and welcomes guests from March to October.

On the waterfront in the French Riviera town of Cap d’Antibes

Graciously poised above the sparkling shores of the Mediterranean, Belles Rives is a legendary Art Deco mansion with sweeping sea views from rooms with impressive balconies. Expect a unique experience where the mantra is ‘subtle extravagance’ with culture, sports, relaxation and great food all part of the daily mix.

The former home of Scott Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda, the Belles Rives’ bold Art Deco styling and blue striped awnings has a nostalgic ring reflecting the riotous glamour of that heady era. Today, time spent on the private beach and balmy evenings in the piano bar and dining by the water’s edge recreates the chic elegance of those bygone days.

Head to the Hotel Belles Rives’ private beach and pier for some sun bathing and a swim or try one of the many water sports available. Relax into your luxury break with an indulgent massage in one of the private Cabanas on the beach or take a Valmont beauty treatment at the Belles Rives Beauty. Then, dine at La Passagere, 1 Michelin Star on the waterfront terrace with its unsurpassed sea views – the epitome of Mediterranean chic.

Enjoy your stay!

Wonderful holiday (again) with the family. Kids learnt to waterski!

Passagiere restaurant tasting menu was simply divine. Staff service from the concierge to reception was impeccable and friendly. Beach lunch was fun around a big family table next to the water.

Very characterful and charming hotel. Friendly, ready and helpful staff. Incredible view of the bay, amazing sunsets.
