Cap d’Antibes is one of the most coveted addresses on the Côte d’Azur, a pine-covered peninsula that has attracted writers, artists, and industrialists since the Belle Époque. The western side of the Cap, bordering the Baie des Milliardaires and the quiet anchorage of the Petit Port de l’Olivette, carries particular prestige. The Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc defines the immediate neighbourhood, and the surrounding streets retain a discreet, residential character defined by high walls, mature gardens, and early twentieth-century villas.
The market and restaurants of Juan-les-Pins are a five-minute drive, and the old town of Antibes, with its covered Marché Provençal and the Picasso Museum, is roughly ten minutes by car. The beaches of La Garoupe and the Plage de la Salis are both accessible within a short drive. Cannes is approximately twenty minutes west.
Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport is around 25 kilometres from Cap d’Antibes, typically 30 to 40 minutes by car depending on traffic, and serves direct routes to most major European cities and beyond. Antibes train station, connecting to the regional TER network and the main Nice to Marseille line, is approximately three kilometres from the Cap. Monaco is reachable in under an hour by road.

The agency will propose the highest number of properties for sale on the Cap d’Antibes, French Riviera. Most of these houses have a sea view, some with a swimming pool and a large land, and others with seafront houses. The agency is specialized for those who have decided to buy a property in this area, consequently each villa for sale on the Cap d’Antibes has a good chance to be promoted by our company.
Located between Juan-les-Pins and Antibes, Cap d’Antibes is the area with many luxurious properties, protected from view by a lush green setting. If this reduces the space accessible to the public on this special course, it also helped to preserve this place of urbanization, retaining all the charm of the pine forest. Many properties and luxury hotels occupy the space of this peninsula, making it somewhat inaccessible. At the southern end of the Cap, the Eden Roc Hotel, built in 1870 on a plot of 8 hectares, is one of the most luxurious in the world and was the first hotel on the French Riviera to open in summer.
