Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel, has announced the opening of Villa Beauchamp and Villa Clair-Soleil – two new historic villas nestled in the Hotel’s lush grounds, with interiors by Parisian designer Sybille de Margerie…
Slated to open in summer 2023, the Villas are perfect for families and friends wanting to enjoy a luxurious stay in total privacy, while benefiting from legendary Four Seasons service. Offering butler service and their own private access, the Villas feature paired-back palettes and soft touches, with rich decorative accents and unexpected details coupled with a touch of chic seafaring charm. Pathways connect the Hotel’s three Villas, with secured gates ensuring privacy is always maintained, making the Villas the perfect solution for larger groups wishing to rent out all three Villas. Villa guests enjoy direct access to the hotel and can make use of all the facilities throughout their stay.
“With Villa Rose-Pierre and the launch of Villa Beauchamp and Villa Clair-Soleil, guests seeking privacy and seclusion can enjoy the Villas’ unique setting and fabulous design, while benefiting from exceptional Four Seasons service,” explained General Manager François-Régis Simon.
The hotel has appointed acclaimed Parisian designer Sybille de Margerie to create bespoke interiors. “I chose a style that would respect the architecture and classical side of the villas, combining both traditional and contemporary features to create a design that is in line with today’s desired aesthetic,” commented de Margerie.
Steps away from the hotel’s fabulous Villa Rose Pierre, Villa Clair Soleil is an intimate two-bedroom villa offering a peaceful, quiet location enjoying wonderful sea views. Built in the mid 20th century, the two-bedroom Villa features paired-back palettes and soft touches that are a typical feature of villas in the Saint-Jean du Cap-Ferrat area. Interiors have fresh and simple clean lines and white-washed walls; soft accents of green recall the surrounding natural landscape, while earthy tones of orange and terracotta add a touch of Provençal charm. The Villa has a wonderfully spacious sea-facing terrace with swimming pool, as well as a private gym offering access to the garden.
The five bedroom Villa Beauchamp exudes a distinctly southern feel, with elegant finishes and neutral palettes marrying with greens and blues to echo the colours of the sea and the surrounding vegetation. References to the south of France abound, most notably in the primary bedroom, which has a magnificent bathroom mosaic floor with design patterns inspired by the work of Jean Cocteau, who famously transformed the walls of nearby Villa Santo Sospir into a dreamy space.
The Villa’s lush gardens are home to a gorgeous 16-metre-long swimming pool shaded by pine, fig, laurel and cypress trees. Among the other facilities are a state-of-the-art entertainment centre with home cinema, sauna, hammam and fitness centre offering direct access to the garden. Adjacent to the Villa is the Pavilion, an independent, fully equipped two bedroom guesthouse that is the perfect solution for friends to stay, or for teenagers wanting a little more privacy. Both bedrooms in the Pavilion come with ensuite bathroom and private terrace.
