La Promenade
de la Croisette
Stretching 2.65 km along the seafront, the Croisette is the most famous boulevard on the Côte d'Azur. Lined with palm trees, luxury boutiques (Chanel, Dior, Hermès) and legendary palaces (Martinez, Carlton, Majestic), it runs from the Festival Palace to Palm Beach.
It is ideal for strolling on foot, cycling, or simply sitting and watching the cosmopolitan parade. The view of the Lérins Islands in the distance is spectacular.
Our apartment

Le Suquet,
medieval quarter
Listed as a historic monument, Le Suquet is the birthplace of Cannes. Perched on a small hill, it offers a panoramic view over the bay, the Lérins Islands and the Old Port. Its cobbled colourful lanes are full of cafés and restaurants.
At the top, the Museum of World Explorations presents exceptional collections. The 16th-century church Notre-Dame d'Espérance and the medieval square tower are also worth the visit.
The Festival
Palace
At 1 Boulevard de la Croisette, the Festival Palace is the world symbol of cinema. Every May, the biggest international stars walk its famous red carpet. The Walk of Stars in front of the palace has over 450 handprints of actors and directors.
Just 2 minutes' walk from your apartment!
Old Port
& Allées de la Liberté
The Old Port Saint-Pierre, between the Suquet quarter and the Croisette, is the authentic soul of Cannes. Fishing boats alongside luxury yachts create a colourful picture with the houses' facades as backdrop.
The Allées de la Liberté next door are a typically Provençal square shaded by century-old plane trees — pétanque, flower market, antique fairs at weekends.
The Forville covered market (Tue–Sun mornings) is one of the finest in the region.
Belle Epoque facades on the Croisette
Beyond the most famous landmarks, Cannes also wins people over through its grand facades and prestigious hotels. This premium promenade reinforces the feeling of a stylish, international and instantly desirable stay.
