The red Monte-Carlo Beach building by the water, with its parasols

Monte-Carlo Beach, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin

Just 500 metres from the Monaco border, the Monte-Carlo Beach actually stands in France, in the town of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin. Your transfer from Nice airport therefore ends just past the border, on the French side.

The hotel and its neighbourhood

The 1930s by the water

The architect Roger Seassal built the hotel in 1929, in the style of the 1930s. In 2009, the designer India Mahdavi reworked it from top to bottom. It belongs to Monaco's Société des Bains de Mer, hence its name, and joined Relais & Châteaux the same year.

Tennis at the border

Close to the border, the Monte-Carlo Country Club has hosted the Monte-Carlo tennis tournament every year since 1928. The best players on the ATP tour compete there on clay, in April. Like the hotel, the club carries the Monte-Carlo name but lies in France.

Our chauffeur services at Monte-Carlo Beach

Crossing the border

No need to look for the hotel inside Monaco: it begins where the Principality ends, on the Roquebrune-Cap-Martin side. From Nice Airport, the car skirts Monaco and then rejoins the shore: allow 1 h 10 min. Prices start at €115 and stay put once booked. The chauffeur leaves you at the hotel, facing the sea.

Tournament week

In April, during the Country Club tournament, traffic tightens around the border. For a flight from Nice, the chauffeur leaves the hotel a little earlier and picks the least crowded road. For a match, we drop you as close to the courts as we can.

The keep and the coastal path

Above the sea, the old village of Roquebrune keeps a Carolingian-type castle, the only one in France. Below, the coastal path runs past Eileen Gray's villa E-1027. We drop you where the walk begins and pick you up at the other end.

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 Monte-Carlo Beach?

The price is fixed, VAT included and per vehicle: €130 in an E-Class (1 to 3 passengers), €160 in a V-Class (up to 7 passengers) and €190 in an S-Class (1 to 2 passengers). From 1 November to the end of February, the winter rate brings it down (€115 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 Monte-Carlo Beach?

About 1 h 10 min to reach Monte-Carlo Beach (36 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.

Is the Monte-Carlo Beach in Monaco?

No: the hotel is in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, France, 500 metres from the border. The chauffeur knows the address and takes you straight there.

During the April tennis tournament, what is the best way to reach the airport from the Monte-Carlo Beach?

The chauffeur sets off a little earlier and takes the least crowded road to Nice; your price stays the one fixed at booking.

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.
