About Mayssa Beach

Mayssa Beach commands panoramic Mediterranean views from its clifftop position in Villefranche-sur-Mer, with the French Riviera coastline stretching across the horizon.

The restaurant's open-air terrace overlooks the sparkling Baie de Villefranche, where sailboats dot azure waters and the landscape drops dramatically to the shoreline 100 meters below.

Natural light floods the venue from sunrise through sunset, transforming the dining space throughout the day.

Beautiful venue, wonderful service and delicious food. I wish we would have eaten here earlier in our trip, so we could go back. Don’t miss this amazing rooftop restaurant.
