Villa Garbo

After their Le Cavendish relaunch, Guy and Christine Welter transformed this lovely 1884 villa in central Cannes into 11 beautifully appointed apartment suites with four-star luxuries. The eclectic styling mixes postmodern and Belle Époque, all elegant lines and rich colors. Breakfast is served in your quarters, where you’ll also find a Nespresso machine and plasma TV. There is a garden, spa, and hammam, but what guests rave about most is the evening happy hour with free drinks—in the lounge before a crackling fireplace in cooler weather or on the terrace in summer.
