Set just above the picturesque Port de l’Olivette and just a short walk from the iconic Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc, Villa La Guettière has quietly reemerged as one of the French Riviera’s most exclusive new retreats. Reopening in April 2025 after a complete restoration, this iconic 1970s villa has been reimagined for a new generation of Riviera living—combining architectural elegance with a refined and hospitality-led experience.
Thoughtfully reimagined by architect Luc Svetchine, the interiors reflect Riviera heritage with a fresh, contemporary lens—open, sunlit spaces, refined materials, and an effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Across its nine en-suite bedrooms—spread between the main residence and a separate guest pavilion—La Guettière invites both privacy and togetherness. A heated infinity pool overlooks the sea, while amenities like a private cinema, wine cellar, and full wellness suite make it just as appealing during quiet lay-days.
But it’s the villa’s unique position that sets it apart. With the harbour just below, guests can enjoy direct sea access as well as a privileged access to the Hôtel du Cap’s Dior spa, Michelin-starred dining, and tennis courts, adding another layer of five-star service to the offering. This proximity opens up the potential for entirely new types of itineraries, where time at sea blends fluidly with time ashore, and daily rhythms can adapt with the weather or the mood.
Perfectly placed between Cannes and Monaco and just 20 minutes from Nice airport, La Guettière offers a peaceful pause during a cruise along the coast, as a mid-itinerary hideaway, or a private location to reconnect ashore.
La Guettière also lends itself beautifully to intimate events. Whether it’s a sunset cocktail for close friends, a family celebration, or a discreet board-level retreat, the villa’s garden terraces and panoramic views offer an idyllic backdrop. With full-service staff—chef, butlers, housekeepers and discreet security—all coordinated by the hospitality team at the Hôtel du Cap, every detail is managed with quiet precision.
