Hôtel Belles Rives, Juan-les-Pins
Before it became the Hôtel Belles Rives, this Juan-les-Pins villa was home to the writer F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda. For a Belles Rives transfer, your private driver takes you from Nice airport right down to the water's edge.
The hotel and its neighbourhood
Villa Saint-Louis
In the mid-1920s, the couple rented Villa Saint-Louis and entertained Picasso, Hemingway and Mistinguett there. Fitzgerald worked on his novel Tender Is the Night under its roof. In 1929, Boma and Simone Estène bought the house and opened it to travellers. The hotel still belongs to their family.
Water-skiing comes to Juan
In 1932, Léo Roman tried gliding over the water on mountain skis, towed by a motorboat. The first attempt failed, so he made his skis longer and wider. In 1949, he founded a water-ski school in Juan-les-Pins, which became the Belles Rives club.
Our chauffeur services at Hôtel Belles Rives
Suitcases and a pushchair
Arriving as a family with several suitcases and a pushchair? The V-Class takes it all, and the chauffeur unloads your luggage outside the hotel entrance. From Nice Airport, the drive to Juan-les-Pins takes 35 minutes. Your fare, from €85, is set at booking, whatever the traffic on the coast road.
A Jazz à Juan evening
In July, the Jazz à Juan festival, founded in 1960, sets up its stage in the Pinède Gould. Friends staying in Cannes, Nice or Antibes? We fetch them for the concert, then take them home after the last encore, so nobody has to drive.
Vallauris, Biot and the Esterel
Vallauris, where Picasso revived the pottery trade, and Biot, the glassblowers' village, are a few kilometres away. For a full day, our excursion service takes you along the Esterel coast road and its red rocks, then back to Juan in the evening, after lunch in Agay or Théoule.
Riviera Private Driver is an independent chauffeur service, not affiliated with the hotel.

Your questions
Frequently asked questions
How much is a transfer between Nice Airport and Hôtel Belles Rives?
The price is fixed, VAT included and per vehicle: €95 in an E-Class (1 to 3 passengers), €120 in a V-Class (up to 7 passengers) and €150 in an S-Class (1 to 2 passengers). From 1 November to the end of February, the winter rate brings it down (€85 in an E-Class). The price is shown before you book and does not change afterwards.
How long does it take from Nice Airport to Hôtel Belles Rives?
About 35 minutes to reach Hôtel Belles Rives (23 km), as a guide only: depending on the season and the time of day, the journey may take longer. Your chauffeur tracks your flight: if it is late, they wait for you and the waiting time is free.
Can a private driver bring a family and their pushchair to the Belles Rives?
The V-Class takes the pushchair and all the suitcases, and the whole family steps out at the hotel.
After a Jazz à Juan concert, can you take our friends back to their hotel?
Yes. The chauffeur meets them at the exit of the pine grove at the agreed time and drops them at their hotel.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. The price is shown before you book, including VAT and per vehicle, and it does not change afterwards.
Do you provide child seats?
Yes: child car seats and booster seats. Just mention it when you book.
Can I cancel my booking?
Yes. Up to 6 hours before pick-up, you can cancel free of charge or change your booking yourself, from your booking page (and during the hour after a booking made later than that). After that, contact us directly and we will do our very best.
How do I pay?
Directly on the website, by card, when you book: your booking is confirmed straight away. You can also pay in the car, by card (American Express accepted) or in cash.
What is the difference between a private chauffeur (VTC) and a taxi?
A VTC (private-hire chauffeur) is booked in advance and its price is fixed when you book. A taxi can be taken without booking, at a rank or in the street, and its fare usually depends on the meter. Riviera Private Driver is a VTC service.
