"At the opposite end of the principality, in what’s technically considered France, the terra cotta-colored Monte-Carlo Beach exudes retro, 1930s charm with Art Deco, California villa-inspired rooms hugging the coastline, and an Olympic-sized saltwater pool that served as a backdrop for Helmut Newton’s Vogue and Vanity Fair shoots."
"Monte Carlo Beach Hotel A landmark since the 1920s, this glamorous resort at Monaco ’s easternmost border with France still evokes the glory days of Monte Carlo, when high-society scenesters were frequent guests. The rooms, airy and bright after a makeover by designer India Mahdavi, have an elevated Deco-meets-nautical vibe with porthole windows, Mediterranean stripes—in turquoise, white, brick red, and beige—tailored furnishings, and artsy line drawings on the walls that recall Matisse and Cocteau. The superb, all-organic restaurant Elsa (named after Elsa Maxwell, the American columnist and hostess who was instrumental in attracting the beau monde to the hotel) is another throwback, while the Olympic-size heated seawater pool—open to guests and Beach Club members who swan around on weekends with their children in tow—remains a draw now as it was then."

"This small luxury hotel was fully renovated in 2009, and the warm terracotta colour blends in beautifully with its Riviera setting.

"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.
