Alpes-Maritimes · French Riviera
Between Cannes and Nice, around the largest yachting harbour in Europe — off-market villas in the pinewoods of Juan-les-Pins, above Port Vauban and within the ramparts of the old town.
Antibes is the working heart of the Riviera’s yachting world and one of its oldest towns — Greek and Roman in origin, ringed by Vauban’s ramparts, and home to the Quai des Milliardaires, where the largest private yachts on the coast lie at their berths. Around it, Juan-les-Pins keeps the pinewoods and the jazz.
Opera Prestige holds a confidential, largely off-market selection across the commune — the pinewood villas of Juan-les-Pins, the residences above Port Vauban, and the addresses within the old town. The neighbouring peninsula has its own dedicated collection of villas on Cap d’Antibes; the wider French Riviera portfolio extends along the coast.
Port Vauban is the defining asset. A bespoke yacht charter can be drawn from the harbour — the largest marina in Europe — and provisioned for the Îles de Lérins, Saint-Tropez or the Italian Riviera, with even significant vessels accommodated at the quay.

Why Opera Prestige
What distinguishes a residence in our Antibes collection is not the address alone, but the manner in which it is delivered — privately, completely, and without friction.
The Cannes Guide
The commune reads as three places — the old town, the harbour, and the pinewoods of Juan-les-Pins. What follows is a practical anatomy of the addresses that matter.
The Harbour
Port Vauban is the largest marina in Europe, and the Quai des Milliardaires its most exclusive berth — the home of the coast’s largest yachts. The residences overlooking it are tightly held and largely off-market.
The Pinewoods
Juan-les-Pins keeps the umbrella pines, the beaches and the Jazz à Juan festival each July in the Pinède Gould. The villas among the pines are among the most sought-after summer addresses in the commune. The adjacent peninsula holds our dedicated Cap d’Antibes collection.
The Old Town
The old town keeps the Marché Provençal, the Cours Masséna, and the Château Grimaldi with its Picasso collection. Our concierge in Antibes opens what cannot be reserved, and a yacht charter lies at Port Vauban, moments away.
Beyond
The commune sits between Cannes to the west and Nice to the east, with the peninsula of Cap d’Antibes at its tip — the full arc of the French Riviera within easy reach.
Seasonal Calendar
May – June
Late spring brings the harbour and the old town to life ahead of the crowds — the markets full, the water warming, the pinewood villas at their most serene. The finest residences remain available to those who plan ahead.
July – August
The Jazz à Juan festival, the season at the beaches and the superyachts at Port Vauban define an Antibes summer. The most significant villas are placed months in advance; engage early or accept limitation.
September – October
September leaves the pinewoods quiet and the sea at its warmest, the harbour still busy with yachts heading south. For many, the commune is at its finest in the early autumn light.
Getting to Cannes
International private jets arrive at Nice Côte d’Azur, around twenty minutes east, with full customs and FBO facilities and a chauffeured transfer waiting on the apron.
A few minutes by helicopter from Nice to the Cannes-Mandelieu or Antibes pad, with a vehicle waiting — for clients whose time on the ground is measured carefully.
Fleet vehicles are held throughout your stay for movement between the residence, Port Vauban, the beaches and excursions along the coast.
The high-speed service from Paris reaches Antibes in around six hours, with a short chauffeured transfer completing the journey.
Have Questions
Rates vary widely with enclave, season and property — the pinewood villas of Juan-les-Pins and the residences overlooking Port Vauban command the highest figures in peak summer. The majority of our Antibes portfolio is off-market and quoted privately on enquiry.
Cap d’Antibes is the exclusive wooded peninsula at the southern tip of the commune, with its own dedicated collection of waterfront estates. The town of Antibes and the resort of Juan-les-Pins surround it — the old town, Port Vauban and the pinewoods. We curate both, on separate collections.
Yes. Residences are delivered with resident staff — typically a private chef, daily housekeeping and an estate manager — with security, additional staff, chauffeurs and yacht crew arranged as part of the same engagement.
Berth access at Port Vauban, including the Quai des Milliardaires for significant vessels, is among the services we coordinate alongside the residence and a yacht charter, subject to availability and arranged well in advance.
Yes. A single advisor coordinates the residence, yacht positioning at Port Vauban, private aviation or helicopter transfers, chauffeured vehicles and every concierge request as one continuous engagement.
