Château de Théoule is the latest opening from France-based Millésime Collection, whose deep-rooted mission is to elevate exceptional sites by transforming them while preserving their history. Staying true to the hospitality brand’s DNA, this iconic destination nestled on the breathtaking coastline of the Côte d’Azur, is just a swift 20-minute boat or car trip from Cannes and a 45-minute ride from Nice International Airport. 

Open just in time for the warmer months, this exquisite 5-star hotel sanctuary boasts its own private beach, La Plage Blanche, open since 2022. Additionally, the property features a private boat slip, making it the perfect getaway for nautical enthusiasts who wish to explore the Riviera’s crystal-clear waters at their leisure.

The property is split into three distinct spaces that come together to create the Château de Théoule experience, celebrating the red rocks and vegetation of the surrounding Massif de l’Estérel, as well as the fauna and flora of the Mediterranean’s shallow waters. The main Château and fishermen’s villa pay homage to the sun and the lush and sensory vegetation of the Riviera, whereas the more modern Art Deco villa, combined with the restaurant and pool area, subtly breaks down the hues of Théoule’s prized seabed. 

The 34 rooms and 10 suites, spanning 31 to 110 sqm and spread out across the original castle and villas, all boast sweeping views of the Bay of Cannes. Millésime brings to Théoule its signature wellness concept, Éc(h)o Spa, in collaboration with the exclusive myBlend brand by Clarins, as well as luxury clean beauty brand KOS PARIS. The spa is located in the heart of the Château facing the sea. Under the leadership of Chef Francesco Fezza, le Restaurant du Château de Théoule celebrates the beloved flavors of the Mediterranean, from France to Italy.
