La Réserve de Beaulieu began in 1880 as a seafood restaurant on the water at Beaulieu-sur-Mer and added rooms in 1905; the Florentine-style villa still sits directly on the sea between Nice and Monaco. It is a small Belle Époque house rather than a resort, with a heated seawater pool at the water's edge. MICHELIN describes the mood as classic and lively. It suits couples who want a traditional Riviera hotel by the water, with Nice and Monaco both within easy reach.
