Beach Front Studio – Western Cannes Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Beach Front Studio – Western Cannes, I’ll be honest — the name pretty much tells you everything you need to know. This three-star spot sits right where you want to be in Cannes, close enough to the beach that you can actually hear the waves from your window. The building itself isn’t flashy, but there’s something refreshing about a place that doesn’t try too hard. Plus, finding parking in Cannes is usually a nightmare, so having free private spots on-site already puts this place ahead of most hotels in the area.

Location & Getting Around

Avenue du Docteur Raymond Picaud might sound fancy, but it’s actually just a quiet street that puts you within walking distance of everything that matters. You’re about a 10-minute stroll to the Palais des Festivals — you know, where all the film festival madness happens — and the main beaches are even closer. What I really appreciated was how this area feels more like where locals actually live, not just tourist central. There’s a small market nearby where you can grab fresh bread and coffee without paying resort prices, which honestly makes a huge difference when you’re staying for more than a couple nights.

The Studio Setup

The room is exactly what it says — a studio setup that’s perfect for couples who don’t need tons of space but want everything functional. There’s a small kitchenette that’s actually useful (not just for show), and the bed faces toward the windows so you wake up with natural light streaming in. I mean, it’s not going to win any design awards, but everything works well and feels clean. The bathroom is compact but has good water pressure, which matters more than you’d think after a long day walking around the city.

Why Couples Keep Coming Back

There’s definitely something about this place that clicks with couples — and after staying here, I get it. It’s intimate without being cramped, and there’s this nice balance where you can cook a simple breakfast together or walk five minutes to find a proper café. The free parking means you can easily explore the surrounding areas (the drive to Nice is gorgeous), but you’re also perfectly positioned to just wander Cannes on foot. Honestly, for a romantic getaway that doesn’t break the bank, this setup just works.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets this place apart is that combination of location and practicality that’s surprisingly hard to find in Cannes. You’re getting beach proximity without beach resort prices, and that parking situation alone saves you probably 20-30 euros a day. The recent guests who rated the location so highly (8.3 out of 10) aren’t wrong — you really are in the sweet spot where you can walk to the action but retreat to somewhere that feels more residential. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but for couples who want to experience Cannes without all the tourist trap hassles, this studio delivers exactly what you need.

Travelers should reserve a hotel in Cannes at least two months ahead of their visit to ensure availability and secure better rates, especially during the peak May festival season when the city hosts its world-famous cinema celebrations.

Reviews of Beach Front Studio – Western Cannes

  • Thierry from France – 24 May 2025 (8/10)

    Christelle a tout fait pour répondre à nos demandes et nous arranger. Merci à elle.
    la vue depuis l'appartement est très belle malgré le train qui ne nous a pas géné.
    l'emplacement de l'appartement permet d'être très vite en ville avec les bus ou à pied par le bord de mer.

    What could be improved: cher en raison du festival.
    Nous aurions aimé avoir davantage d'explications sur les fonctionnements de la télé par exemple à l'accueil.

  • Annalisa from Italy – 4 May 2025 (7/10)

    Very kind and helpful host and also the contact Uliana who waited patiently for us to give us the keys. The structure is right inside the Luxhotel property, entering on the right. Accommodation in a single room with kitchen, bed, sofa and table (bar type) on the veranda. Overall good apartment, good apartment equipment, also considering the prices of Cannes. Sea and main road easily reachable on foot in less than 10 minutes on foot, port about 20 minutes on foot.

    What could be improved: The unpleasant note is that there is a railway between the apartment and the seafront, at night the trains do not run but in the early morning it can be annoying. There is a strong smell of smoke in the apartment, I reported it to the host, I hope they will solve it.
