The 5 most beautiful hotel pools of the Côte d’Azur

Here at the Mediterranean coast between Cassis near Marseille and Menton near the Italian border there is a lot to explore. There’s no shame wanting to relax after shopping trips at famous promenades like the Promenade des Anglais in Nice or after charming yacht trips. Therefore, I would like to present some of the most beautiful hotel pools of the Côte d’Azur. Relaxation guaranteed! 1. Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat On the tip of the peninsula of Cap-Ferrat, a real gem awaits. The Grand-Hôtel doesn’t only come up with the first-class design of Pierre-Yves Rocher but also charms its guests with a breathtaking view of the Ligurian Sea. The amazing hotel pool of the Club Dauphin is suited best to enjoy this view. The Olympian salt-water basin is heated and lets the sea look just like an extension of the pool. A special highlight is the Four Seasons pool suite, a pretty private apartment with its own pool – for the very personal bath experience at the Côte d’Azur! 2. La Réserve de Beaulieu & Spa La Réserve stands for the gentle way of life so typical for the Mediterranean area. The so-called rose palace waits for you directly at the coast. There, guests are welcomed in luxurious and discreet ambiance. The lovely hotel pool of the Réserve de Beaulieu & Spa is located in close proximity. It offers an unmatched view of the Mediterranean Sea that is enjoyed preferably on the elegant sun loungers around the swimming pool. Particularly in the evenings, a dreamlike romantic atmosphere emerges. Besides the hotel facilities, the nearby metropolises Nice and Monaco will not allow any kind of boredom. 3. Hotel Sezz, Saint-Tropez Saint-Tropez is renowned for its busy and energetic atmosphere. Therefore, it is very important to find a relaxing hotel for yourself. The charming 5-star-designer hotel Sezz is ideally suited. All rooms are located around the swimming pool that is surrounded by palm trees. The basin has an area of 200 square meters and is heated. If this doesn’t sound like enough relaxation for you, retreat to the spa area or enjoy the luxury of a villa suite with a private garden and a personal pool. A stay with guaranteed relaxation. 4. La Chèvre d’Or, Èze It gets romantic in Èze, a medieval city between Nice and Monaco. In the heart of the small town stands the Château de la Chèvre d’Or, a top-class luxury hotel. Besides a breathtaking view on the Mediterranean Sea and a Restaurant with 2 Michelin stars, the hotel features an amazing pool. The small basin invites you to relax in the silence and harmony of nature. The huge hotel pools at urban beaches with highly contested space in the water can in no way compare to this. Here in Èze, you can enjoy the tranquility. 5. Château De La Messardière, Saint-Tropez The biggest château-hotel of Saint-Tropez invites you to relax. Besides exquisite culinary art in the Restaurant L’Acacia with over 400 different types of wine and champagne, light French specialties are served directly at the pool as well. Apart from the elegantly designed pool area, the 10 hectares-wide private park of the hotels is worth mentioning, too. The French association of bird protection officially confirmed the park to be a bird sanctuary. It is an ideal place for extensive relaxing walks to find a balance to the action in Saint-Tropez.
