La Californie in Cannes

Away from the tourist bustle of the city center, La Californie is a well-served area located just a few minutes from the Croisette and the seaside, surrounded by Mediterranean plants, a true haven of peace.

- Villa Fiorentina and its Italian gardens, built in 1880;
- The Villa Picasso, or Villa California, acquired by Pablo Picasso who painted many pieces there;
- The Villa Rothschild, built in 1881 in place of Lord Brougham's villa, now hosts the media library and numerous cultural events;
- The Villa Domergue, which opens its doors for a visit of its Italian gardens during the summer season and hosts a number of artistic and cultural exhibitions;
- Or La Favorite & Le Rouve …
