Beaulieu-sur-Mer, a small town of 3,700 residents nestled between Villefranche-sur-Mer and Èze, enjoys an exceptional microclimate: the 'Little Africa' records the mildest winter temperatures in France (sometimes 7°C more than in Nice). This particularity made the fortune of the Belle Époque resort, then frequented by all the crowned heads of Europe. Taxis are essential to connect Monaco (15 minutes), NCE airport (18 minutes) and the isolated villas of nearby Cap-Ferrat.
Beaulieu houses Villa Kérylos (1908), a faithful and unique replica of a Greek antique villa from the 2nd century BC, built by archaeologist Théodore Reinach. The Little Africa, a tropical microclimate sheltered by Mont Boron, allowed the Belle Époque outdoor cultivation of banana and lemon trees in winter. The Réserve de Beaulieu is one of the oldest Relais & Châteaux palaces on the Riviera.
