Hamid
★★★★★a month agoAn extraordinary villa that feels like stepping into another era of the French Riviera. The architecture, interiors, and surrounding gardens reflect pure elegance and aristocratic beauty. Built by Baroness Béatrice Ephrussi de Rothschild, the villa carries a fascinating history of art, wealth, and refined European culture. Every room is filled with character, rare collections, and stunning details that showcase the luxurious lifestyle of the Rothschild family. Combined with the spectacular coastal views, this place is more than just a museum — it feels like a timeless masterpiece. One of the most beautiful and memorable historic villas in the South of France.

★★★★★a month agoFabulous house and garden built by Beatrice Ephrussi de Rothschild (French socialite) with awesome views over the sea and land. Very reasonably priced admission including self guided audio tour and parking (40 spaces). Lots of pieces of,art including ceramics. Don't miss the film (in French with English subtitles) giving a history of the French Riviera and Beatrice. While the information on the works of art was too detailed for us, the garden was the jewel in the crown. Several different themes all offering stunning views.
