Overview
When sitting back in your lush gardens, relaxing as your family or friends swim in the private pool or dine al-fresco on the terrace, it’s hard to believe you are in central Cannes, just a 15-minute stroll from the glamour of La Croisette and the city’s splendid beaches.
Villa Cosmopolite offers an air of sophisticated authenticity in a fantastic location for visiting Cannes and the French Riviera. It has been styled beautifully – just step into the open-plan living space and appreciate the home’s character in its welcoming lounge alongside contemporary comfort in the well-equipped kitchen-diner. Upstairs, via the grand staircase, you will find three gorgeous bedrooms, one en suite with a generous bath and walk-in shower whilst the lower floor offers two further bedrooms and a second lounge and kitchen, perhaps ideal for teens seeking a little independence or accompanying grandparents.
Outside it feels like a calm oasis with glorious gardens and a wonderful swimming pool as well as al-fresco lounge and dining spaces, perfect for long barbecues cooking up local delights bought from one of Cannes’ atmospheric covered markets. Of course, restaurants, cafes and bars are all within walking distance whether seeking out authentic bistros or booking ahead at Michelin starred establishments.
Soak up the glamour of Cannes along La Croisette or by its glitzy marina, discover its historic past in the charming quarter of La Suquet, take a boat trip out to the beautiful Île Sainte-Marguerite or just spend time relaxing on the sandy beaches, swimming in the Bay of Cannes or trying out a wealth of watersports.
Hire a car to explore a little further afield with idyllic villages and towns of the hinterland such as Mougins, Valbonne and Grasse or continue along the coast to the old-town of Antibes and lovely beaches of this part of the French Riviera. You could even catch the train as far as Monaco, passing the great city of Nice as well as picturesque beaches such as Beaulieu and Èze-sur-Mer.
There are wonderful walks through woodland, hikes between villages and horse-riding through breathtaking scenery as well as golf in stunning surroundings at one of the many prestigious courses. Whether exploring Cannes or other parts of the captivating Côte d'Azur, there’s no doubt that this is an alluring and enchanting part of southern France.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa CosmopoliteVilla Cosmopolite is located amongst grand houses and apartments on an avenue in central Cannes. Set on a plot of 2500m2, it feels like a city oasis with such wonderful gardens.
The shops and restaurants of Cannes are just a short walk away whilst within a 15 to 20-minute stroll you can be admiring the glamour of La Croisette and gazing over the Mediterranean from one of the fine city beaches. Wander along the famous boulevard, passing high-end hotels, restaurants and beach clubs, with stunning views of the Bay of Cannes.
There is a supermarket within a five-minute walk for grocery essentials but one of the great delights of Cannes is its vibrant covered markets. Marché Forville, open six mornings a week, sells the morning’s catch as well as locally produced fruit and vegetables and other delicacies such as cured meats, olives and so much more. Marché Gambetta is another fantastic market, even closer, or head to Marché de La Bocca, a little further out of town, to shop amongst locals.
Le Suquet is an especially enchanting part of Cannes to discover, an historic neighbourhood with winding and steep lanes leading to the castle at the top, Musée de la Castre. Explore the picturesque houses, many once fishermen cottages, and admire panoramic views from various elevated spots across this idyllic part of Cannes.
Heading back to the sandy beaches of Cannes, watersport enthusiasts can try out kite-surfing, para-sailing, yachting, sea-kayaking, catamarans and more. There are also numerous boat excursions such as trips as far as Saint-Tropez or Monaco as well as whale-watching or sunset cruises along the French Riviera. A visit to the tranquil and beautiful Lérins Islands is perfect for a day away from the city.
Hire a car and discover even more of the stunning Côte d'Azur or take a train to some of the coastal towns heading east as far as Monaco via Nice. Just 12km away is the charming old-town of Antibes, the vibrant restaurants and bars of Juan-Les-Pins and the gorgeous beaches of this coastline.
In the other direction, Théoule-sur-Mer offers yet more dramatic scenery or head inland to some of the most delightful villages such as Mougins (7km) and Biot (16km). Art-lovers should visit St Paul de Vence (27km) and Vence (30km) for pretty art galleries, artisan shops and the well-known art museum, Fondation Maeght as well as Matisse’s serene Chapelle Du Rosaire.
The market town of Valbonne (13km) is a must on a Friday morning with its glorious market, perhaps combined with a visit to one of the perfume museums of Grasse (20km). This area is a walker’s paradise with trails through woodland and hills, passing iconic scenery of olive groves and cypress trees with glimpses of the glistening Mediterranean so near.

Region
Despite being renowned for its annual international film festival in May at the iconic Palais des Festivals, Cannes is not just a glamourous destination for the rich and famous. The attractive Côte d’Azur town is loved all year round for its palm-fringed beaches, upmarket shopping opportunities and wonderful restaurants as well as a certain French Riviera charm.
Stroll along Cannes’ iconic La Croisette boulevard following the footsteps of stars from years gone by as you admire prestigious hotels, luxurious boutiques and private beach clubs. Stop off for a cocktail as the sun sets and admire the twinkling lights across the bay. Even at night, La Croisette remains the vibrant heart of this bustling town.
Shop to your heart’s delight along the streets of the Carré d’Or district – come across hundreds of well-known stores along Rue d’Antibes. At the end of a busy day there’s a vast choice of restaurants to suit every taste and budget from authentic bistros spilling out on to the street to Michelin starred establishments.
Soak up the historic side of Cannes as you explore Le Suquet quarter’s medieval lanes passing little shops, atmospheric restaurants, flower-filled balconies and old fishermen’s houses. Climb to the top of the hill by Église Notre-Dame d'Espérance for stunning views of the harbour, followed by a visit to Château de la Castre and its popular museum. This part of Cannes is also home to the colourful Marché Forville showcasing the very best gourmet delights of Cannes and beyond.
Escape the crowds as you venture to Croix Des Gardes natural park with forest walking routes, botanical plants and glorious views across to the Lérins Islands. Look out for some fantastic boat trips from Cannes’ marina from whale and dolphin-watching excursions to family adventures on board a chartered yacht, sight-seeing ferries and romantic sun-set cruises.
Beyond the city centre, visit the ceramic studios and National Picasso Museum in Vallauris, follow Picasso’s footsteps in the enchanting hilltop village of Mougins (loved for its galleries and gastronomy) and appreciate the artistic vibe of Biot with beautiful views of the French Riviera. Chic Juan-les-Pins, so loved by Parisians in the summer, is home to beachside restaurants and more watersports whilst keen walkers will adore the incredible coastal trail around Cap d’Antibes.
In the other direction is the charming seaside village of Théoule-sur-Mer, backed by the dramatic Esterel massif, another paradise for hikers. By staying in one of our collection of handpicked rentals in Cannes you can experience all of this and more during your time on the glistening Côte d’Azur.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesA city holiday in central Cannes offers something for every age.
First of all, the beaches are fantastic – there is a mixture of private beach clubs and public spaces with plenty of choice both in the city centre and just outside. Youngsters will love the little playground at the end of La Croisette with trampolines whilst older kids can try out some of the watersports on offer from sea-kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding to wind-surfing, jet-ski and more.
The city also has beach volleyball, tennis courts and public pétanque courts.
Another great way to spend family time is on one of the many boat excursions departing from Cannes, whether whale-watching, cruising along the French Riviera or heading to the calm beaches and historic sights of the beautiful Lérins Islands.
Hire a car and head inland for family hikes, cycling and mountain biking opportunities as well as horse-riding. There’s go-karting and paint-balling near Grasse, a tree-top adventure course and two family-friendly theme parks near Villeneuve-Loubet plus summer fairgrounds and waterparks near Antibes and Cagnes-sur-Mer.
