Luxury villa rental in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

Set between the bays of Villefranche and Beaulieu, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat has long been one of the Riviera's most discreet addresses. Once a fishing village, the peninsula became a place of grand estates and gardens in the early 20th century, while keeping a remarkably green and residential character.

The coastline is best explored on foot. Around eight kilometres of coastal paths connect rocky coves, beaches and pine-framed viewpoints, while the village itself gathers around a small harbour lined with restaurants and terraces.

The Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild and its gardens remain one of the peninsula's defining landmarks, alongside the Chapelle Saint-Hospice and the villas that have drawn artists and writers here for generations. Nice and Monaco are both only a few kilometres away, making Cap Ferrat feel secluded without being remote.
