Grand-Hotel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, open JuneSeptember.

Grand-Hotel du Cap-Ferrat stands apart as the only ultra-luxury palace hotel on the Cap-Ferrat peninsula, commanding 14 acres of private seafront with direct Mediterranean access unavailable at competing venues.

The Four Seasons property offers unparalleled architectural grandeur dating to 1908, combined with contemporary hospitality infrastructure that accommodates 150+ guests across multiple indoor and outdoor ceremony and reception spaces.

Guests enjoy exclusive use of the hotel's private beach, Olympic-sized pool, and Michelin-starred dining—elements rarely consolidated at a single destination venue in the French Riviera.

My husband and I got married at Hotel du Cap and cannot express how amazing our experience was. The team on site was beyond helpful and kind, they made us and our guests feel like royalty at home in our own castle. The food was incredible - people still talk about it! I cannot say enough great things about our experience.
