Monte-Carlo Beach Hotel Review | Hotels Above Par

"A boutique five-star Relais & Châteaux property on the sun-drenched Roquebrune-Cap-Martin coastline just outside Monaco, it occupies a 1930s Art Deco building revived by India Mahdavi and offers 40 rooms and suites that prioritize calm, coastal minimalism with floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies framing sweeping Mediterranean views. Guests enjoy an exclusive private beach and an Olympic-sized pool framed by palms and chic loungers, plus seasonal Jacquemus touches—banana-yellow umbrellas and two pop-up boutiques—bringing a contemporary Provençal flair through October 2025. Culinary offerings range from Michelin-starred Elsa led by chef Marcel Ravin to casual poolside brasserie classics at Le Deck and barefoot, toes-in-the-sand dining at Jondal à La Vigie. Wellness is quietly sophisticated, with PAOMA spa treatments in sea-view cabins, a traditional hammam and morning open-air yoga, alongside a gym and thoughtful service touches. Practical perks include arrival upgrades when available, daily full breakfast, a $100 food & beverage credit, early check-in/late check-out subject to availability, complimentary Wi‑Fi, and easy access to Monaco attractions (about 45 minutes from Nice Côte d’Azur Airport); rates start from around $619 per night."
