Hotel Description
You know what struck me first about this place? The address – 146 Boulevard Eugène Gazagnaire – sounds incredibly fancy, but honestly, that’s just how they name streets in Cannes. What actually matters is that you’re literally on Pointe Croisette, which means you’re at the quieter, more residential end of the famous Croisette boulevard. I mean, you get all the glamour without the constant chaos of tourists trying to recreate their Cannes Film Festival fantasies right outside your window.
The apartment itself lives up to that “luxueux” promise, though it does it in a way that feels more like staying at a well-traveled friend’s place than some sterile luxury hotel. The front de mer part isn’t just marketing speak – you actually wake up to Mediterranean views, and depending on which room you’re in, you can watch the early morning joggers and dog walkers along the beach before the day-trippers arrive. The 9.4 rating makes sense once you settle in; it’s those little details that add up. Like how the kitchen actually has proper coffee equipment (not just some sad instant coffee setup), and the shower pressure is honestly better than most places I’ve stayed in France. The Wi-Fi doesn’t mysteriously disappear every few hours either, which – let’s be real – matters when you’re trying to stay connected.
What I really appreciated was the building itself. It’s got that classic Riviera architecture without feeling dated, and the other residents seem to be a mix of locals and longer-term visitors rather than party crowds. You’re close enough to walk to all the Croisette action – maybe fifteen minutes to the Palais des Festivals if you’re feeling ambitious – but far enough that you’re not dealing with the street noise and restaurant chaos until 2 AM. The beach access is straightforward too; you don’t have to navigate through hotel lobbies or pay for some exclusive club setup. Just walk across the boulevard and you’re on sand. Parking can be a bit of a puzzle (this is Cannes, after all), but the neighborhood has more options than the central Croisette area where you’re basically stuck with valet rates that’ll make you weep. If you’re visiting during festival season or peak summer, book way ahead – places like this that actually deliver on the luxury promise without the corporate hotel vibe get snapped up fast. But honestly, even in the shoulder seasons, it’s worth it for that combination of authentic local feel and genuine comfort.
To book a hotel in Cannes during the famous Cannes Film Festival season, visitors should make reservations well in advance as the city attracts celebrities and film industry professionals from around the world.

Marina from Austria – 29 May 2025 (9/10)
We were welcomed cordially by the hosts, given all necessary help and assistance. We warmly recommend this location to all newcomers!
The location is perfect, right on the sandy beach, close to restaurants, grocery shops, bakeries, and bus stops if required. The access to the own garage was very helpful.Levente from Hungary – 19 August 2024 (10/10)
Nice panorama, good location

We stayed at the apartment while New Year’s holidays. The location, the view and the whole staying was an amazing experience. Thank you, Mathilde and Patrick for welcoming us.
