Towering above the Cap Martin peninsula and Monaco on the Côte d'Azur, the Maybourne Riviera is a half-manmade, half-organic hotel complex.
It sits atop a natural pedestal, with its structure blended into the rocks with cascading terraces and gardens.
The Maybourne Riviera's modernist villa is a state-of-the-art masterpiece designed by French architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte. It overlooks the sparkling waters of the Mediterranean Sea, terracotta tiled rooftops, and beautiful vegetation that lives among the rocks, like the Cypress trees.
From the center of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, a twisty road leads to the clifftop location. After a 10-minute ride, you will reach one of the most exclusive destinations that has received numerous awards.
This is Maybourne Group's fifth hotel after opening their super-luxurious properties in two other prestigious locations: London and Los Angeles.
The distinctive complex is split into three parts.
The main building that rises above the rest of the structure is called Crystal, and it's where you enter the grand white-washed lobby with its hanging contemporary art installation and library. Plus, this building is home to restaurants and some of the rooms.
The second part of the hotel, integrated into the rocks below the ground level, is the Azur.
This is where you'll find the luxurious Suites and Signature Suites. Finally, the Corniche wing of the building is the closest to the hanging garden, with an incredible cantilevered outdoor pool, a spa, and rooms that come with a private pool.
