Cannes Croisette 2 Bedroom Apartment Sea View

Cannes occupies a singular position on the French Riviera, a city whose international reputation is built on more than its famous film festival. The Boulevard de la Croisette, running along the Bay of Cannes with the Lérins Islands visible offshore, defines the city’s identity as clearly as any address in the south of France. The old quarter of Le Suquet rises behind the port, and the city balances genuine year-round residential life with the glamour that draws visitors from across the world.

Daily life in Cannes centres on the Marché Forville for fresh produce, the boutiques of Rue d’Antibes for shopping, and restaurants including La Palme d’Or at the Martinez and Mantel in Le Suquet. The Lérins Islands are accessible by ferry from the Vieux-Port in under 15 minutes. The Palais des Festivals anchors the western end of the Croisette.

Cannes-Mandelieu Airport handles private and charter traffic and sits approximately 6 kilometres west of the city centre. Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport, the primary hub for the region with direct connections to most European capitals and intercontinental routes, is roughly 30 kilometres east, around 30 to 40 minutes by car or taxi. Cannes train station connects directly to Nice in approximately 40 minutes and to Marseille in around 2 hours on the TGV.
