Cannes

A magical moment in Monaco

Exploring Monte Carlo on any budget

I’m inside the Saint Nicholas Cathedral of Monte Carlo, in Monaco. It is a cavernous church with tall, white stone walls, arches, and pillars. Gold-plated murals line the domed ceiling. Stained glass windows portray biblical tales. Rows of maple brown pews are adorned with red velvet cushions. And the priest’s words are echoing off the walls, making it very hard for me to understand his French.

Hotel Le Canberra Cannes

For a small fee, guests can soak up the sun on this property’s private beach. During the stay, guests can relax in the lobby bar and verandah and park in the hotel’s own parking lot.

La Bastide de St-Tropez , Saint Tropez France

La Bastide de St-Tropez is a bastide or country house in Saint-Tropez all the elegance of a Mediterranean home just a few minutes from the beaches at Ramatuelle and the port of St-Tropez. Far from the summer crowds- this magnificent mansion with its four Provencal farmhouses invites you to fulfillment- in the heart of a paradise park filled with exotic species. On the edge of the superb swimming pool- beneath the three hundred year old olive trees or in the winter garden- Fabien Delaffon welcomes you and assures you of moments of well-being in a warm and elegant ambience.
