A truly exquisite hotel in the most magical of settings. From the breath-taking sea views of the rooms to quite possibly the best breakfast we have ever encountered - we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay. Above all however is the quality of staff at the Grand Hotel - their standards are without doubt the highest we have seen and nothing was too much trouble. Alice in particular made our whole trip completely stress free by planning every moment to the finest detail - we could not have been more impressed with her service. Our only regret was that we did not stay longer! There is only one word to sum up the Grand Hotel.... Paradise. Tim & Joanne Murray-Brown

Absolutely spectacular…truly one of the finest hotels in the world. We stayed in the newer building, which we really enjoyed (despite being a very brief walk from the main hotel). The room was spacious and comfortable. The staff was skilled in all aspects of hospitality. A remarkable property.

Review is for the lunch at Veranda Restaurant. Which is terrace / open air restaurant overlooking the stunning beautiful gardens and the ocean. It’s a picturesque location and the service is excellent. Beautiful restaurant with a lovely menu / service was five star including the sommelier recommendations for wines. We went with friends and they had kids / so it was super nice and kids friendly too. We tried the seafood / pasta for kids / beef for our friends and as shown in the pictures the desserts were out of this world. Tried the chocolate dessert / the Rum Baba and also the Mille fruille .. all were superb. The wine list as expected was exhausting and had something for everyone. Overall a fantastic experience and a wonderful place for lunch. Verdict 5/5 But super expensive that’s all. Meal for 2 is easily 200-250 euros with 1 glass of wine each.

We didn’t stay at the property, but we did make a reservation for drinks at Le Bar, and dinner at Le Veranda. Both were exceptional. Weekends have an excellent live band at the location. Wine menu was extensive, but the wines by the glass were wonderful, too. The service was perfect. Highly attentive, not overbearing, and importantly to us, not stuffy. Everyone was cheery, kind, and helpful. We felt very welcomed. We really had a great experience, and would happily recommend.

You can’t get a better location! This is a true palace Hotel but we were a bit disappointed by the service that was a bit “too much”. I guess this is Four Season Style. The food at the Restaurant Cap was outstanding, very creative and extremely tasteful.

This Four Seasons property is quite different from any of their other hotels which we have visited. The rooms in the old part of the hotel were very poorly designed with oversized furniture, difficult to maneuver around, and we even moved from a room that was so small that we couldn’t open our suitcases. We were then given a “suite”, again such an odd layout, artwork hung poorly, galley type closets in a space so narrow that you had to stand sideways! The decor is generic, shiny nickel plated accessories, a television way off center and impossible to watch, and a lobby that has no character. My complaints are with the decor and design. We had friends staying in the “modern” rooms, so much more comfortable, with great storage/closets, but again, a bathroom so narrow it was comical. The staff was fantastic, though, Sascha at reception and Gregory and Damien down by the pool deserve special mention. We tip generously so no staff is going to be deprived because if the non-sensical design and pedestrian decor, but there is very little character to the rooms of this historic property. Really comfortable beds and pillows, though, and very well run hotel. Gorgeous floral arrangements and excellent housekeeping, but the rooms were very uncomfortable, even after I re-arranged the furniture in the suite.

The crown jewel of the Four Seasons brand. A must for refined travelers that are ok with very hefty price tag. The location is what elevates this hotel to the highest status there is and the impeccable service is unmatched. Travelled here for 4 days with my husband and 9yr old and we didn’t want to leave the property bc it was too magical and wanted to savor every second. They anticipate your every need, whim and fulfill your dreams on what a perfect hotel stay should be. The only thing it lacks is a better kids club-bathe one they have is more geared to little kids under 7 and very small. No activities in evening so parents could indulge. Many thanks to Pierre Antoine at Dauphin for making our pool days spectacular- and assuring that we were so taken care of. Also to the famed pastry chef Pierre Jean for taking time off his schedule for teaching my little girl how to make pastries -an extraordinary day for us. INCREDIBLE is an understatement and we look very much forward to coming back here. MUST SEE HOTEL.

Lunch with five friends and family , service virtually non existent. Scampi salad consisting of 4 prawns on lettuce a five year old could have made . Over priced mediocre wine .Stuck in elevator for over 20 minutes with no apologies. Try the Eden Rock - no comparison Further to this experience I have now had a phone call from Mathias Garinet, who’s professionalism was exemplary and made me feel that I was truly dealing with a hotel which cares about its clientele. We will now definitely be returning and look forward to an enjoyable experience- many thanks Mathias

Beautiful and breathingly stunning views...I would go back at anytime 😊 money totally worth spent. This is life!!!! If you want to go to the bar then definitely go after 6pm and be early as security guys are hard core and don't like to let people in otherwise they keep it very exclusive and quiet.

How do I begin to thank and recommend the Four Seasons Cap-Ferrat...they were incredible! It was my 40th birthday, and my husband and I knew we wanted to celebrate it with Four Seasons. We arrived from Paris to Nice, to the most heartfelt welcome from Marion! Mukti, the manager, came to introduce us as well. We were surprised when Marion took us to the most wonderful upgraded room. They had a birthday card, sketchbook and a birthday dessert with champagne as well. I was overwhelmed with gratitude and starting tearing up...I've never been treated to such hospitality! Everyone was so kind the rest of the trip. The concierge team remembered my birthday and planned incredible dinners. The day of my birthday, the housekeeping team had balloons and another dessert our the living area...wow! All Four Seasons we've been to are amazing, but this takes the cake and probably forever will :) An unparalleled experience!

Nestled in Cap Ferrat, Club Dauphin exudes elegance and offers a perfect blend of glamour and chic style typical of the Cote d'Azur. The luxurious setting provides a brasserie ambiance serving light Mediterranean cuisine. Guests can enjoy poolside relaxation with stunning views of the infinity pool and sea while savoring Provencal salads, grilled fish, and local rose wine.
Incredible view, impeccable service, exquisite food. Perfect location to celebrate and have a good time.

The view and the pool is outstanding. But something has happened to the service during the 7 years we have been visiting. It was just me and my husband we got two sunbeds for 380 euros. (Before we got a cabana for the same price). We reserved 4 days prior to our visit but they still couldn’t give us sunbeds next to the pool even if there was many chairs available and I made that as a request at the same time as the booking. All those small things they did before doesn’t exist as coming with complimentary water, changing towels after a couple of hours, no Hermés soap in the changing room anymore just cheap bad smelling pump soap, no hairdryer etc. We also had lunch at the restaurant and it was the worst experience ever. We are two people and they could not manage to bring the food out at the same time. So my husband had the burger and after 15 min my food came Seabass Tartar which was tasty when it finally arrived and I was eating alone. They said sorry but they didn’t do anything to compensate not even a cup of coffee. Instead they added two burgers to the bill instead of one. As ordered. Just said they are sorry and blamed each other. As they did when we waited for our food. We where really disappointed from the overall experience, having this place as one of our favourite locations we will think twice if we will come back in the near future. So sad for such a beautiful place that we have so many memories from. Leaving this review and hoping it will get better. Meanwhile there are much nicer places to visit when you are in the south of France.

Visited Club Dauphin many times pre Covid so this was our first visit for 3 years, the views and setting are absolutely stunning , the staff are wonderful very attentive and knowledgeable and here’s the “but” the food has gone downhill considerably, before every mouthful was a joy but now it’s ordinarily edible but ordinary, I wondered if the chefs have been replaced by cooks or maybe it was just a bad day .

We had the good fortune of spending the day at this resort’s pool club on a trip to the French Riviera May 2022. While the staff was ambitious, trying hard to please and the pool and the ocean access was excellent, the quality of the food was poor and overall, the prices were ridiculous. I do appreciate that this is a luxury property and that staff and labour costs are high post pandemic, but smoothies for 18 euro, cocktails for 40 euro, lunch dishes for 50 euro and prices for items at the spa gift shop in the stratosphere and were not only a shock but an affront as the quality was just not there to justify these charges. I recognize that I have privilege in attending such a place in the first place, but value must always accompany a purchase and there was little quality in any of these items, only arrogance on behalf of whomever felt this was allowable and justifiable. Please do better as after speaking to some of the regulars we met and reading the online reviews, it is clear that this resort had a great reputation and service model…. One that I fear has become one of entitlement and resting on its laurels and most sadly one that betrays the ethos of such a storied place. A

La Veranda, found within The Grand-Hotel du Cap-Ferrat, is a delightful bistro situated in the heart of the peninsula. This charming eatery offers an array of traditional French dishes crafted with locally-sourced ingredients that are both fresh and exquisite. With its refined ambiance and sophisticated setting, La Veranda provides an upscale dining experience where patrons can choose between indoor or outdoor seating options.
The food is incredible as well as the service and atmosphere. If you want the premium you come here. (As a Feedback the orders should be kept a bit more structured to avoid mixing up of the drinks).

Très bon déjeuner dans cet endroit aussi qualitatif pour la cuisine que l’environnement. Les plats étaient vraiment très bons et copieux !

Et c’est bien évidemment toujours un plaisir de venir et être accueilli dans un palace. Merci pour l’expérience !

(Translated by Google) The setting is idyllic, on the terrace (it's still summer in the middle of October). The service is very friendly even if a small forgetting bottle of water disrupts the perfection. On the plate it is very good and well served. The balance is found, especially for the absolutely succulent chocolate dessert. The atmosphere... is... special. Between the pigeon who eats the baskets of bread placed on the serving trays 3 m from the tables and the neighbor who plays with his dentures... making them fall to the ground... We must not have the same conception of education and discretion. In short, a very good address all the same. Especially with the woman in his life. (Original) Le cadre est idyllique, sur la terrasse (c'est encore l'été en plein mois d'octobre). Le service est très sympa même si un petit oubli de bouteille d'eau vient troubler la perfection. Dans l'assiette c'est très bon et bien servi. L'équilibre est trouvé, surtout pour le dessert chocolaté absolument succulent. L'ambiance... est... particulière. Entre le pigeon qui bouffe les corbeilles de pain posées sur les plateaux de service à 3 m des tables et le voisin qui joue avec son dentier... en le faisant tomber par terre... On ne doit pas avoir la même conception de l'éducation et de la discrétion. Bref, une très bonne adresse tout de même. Surtout avec la femme de sa vie.

It's been frequented by famous people such as Winston Churchill and Sean Connery. The restaurant offers Mediterranean cuisine and grilled fish specialties.

This is one of our favorite spots on earth, we just had our 20 year anniversary party here! This is the best beach around with amazing views and great people watching. The water is always clean compared to the other beaches (Beaulieu or Villefranche for example). If you’re doing the public beach, it is rocky, so bring something soft or cushioned to lay on. If you go to the restaurant, the lounge chairs are €40 each. There is a little cafe a 3 min walk away if you don’t want to eat at the Paloma restaurant. The parking situations is bad, try to Uber there, or park by the harbor and Paloma will send their vintage VW bus or tuk tuk which is fun! You can eat on your lounge chairs or at the restaurant. The food is obviously expensive (you’re in Saint Jean Cap Ferrat!!), and could be better at times, but it’s pretty good overall. When we had our anniversary dinner there though the food was amazing! Much better than any of the lunches we had there. Everyone at the party kept saying how delicious the food was and this is a tough crowd to please. It really is a magical spot both during the day and evening and it’s a must see when your visiting the area.

Unfortunately the pictures we are seeing in google have nothing simmilar with the reality of this beach. I do really not see how it might be promoted as one of the best beaches around.

The beach is beautiful by itself and very cozy. The restaurant is full, so make sure yo reserve in advance. Would definitely suggest to have the fishes they get for the day.. fresh and delicious. For the whole package, food, great service and location, I think the price was not abusive. There are spaces available for parking during dinner time but is not accessible by car during the day so you should park nearby to access it (about 10 min walking).

Paloma is very near and dear to our family. We have celebrated reunions, honeymoons, growing families, birthdays, and beautiful evenings over three decades both on its beach and in its restaurant. Last night’s dinner next to the shimmering water was wonderful in every way. The atmosphere is dreamy, the staff wonderfully attentive and warm, the menu excellent. Memories like this will be savored forever.

Hmm. First of all when they saw me and my sister they came up quite sceptic but once we asked for the full service and all amenities they changed their behavior towards us. I understand.

Really rocky beach like all euro beaches, so bring water shoes… otherwise, enjoy the view and have some wine or beer. Bathroom and changing rooms available near restaurant area.

The Pelletier family has owned and operated Restaurant Capitaine Cook for as long as I can remember. Their focus is on traditional cuisine, particularly seafood dishes that are absolutely divine! The restaurant offers a unique and authentic decor, with both an indoor courtyard-style terrace and an outdoor terrace along the entrance. The food and service are impeccable, and the prices are very reasonable.
An absolutely incredible find in Cap Ferat which is a pleasant change from some of the more ostentatious venues that are common on the Côte d’Azur. The service was friendly and felt like you had been invited to somebody’s place for you to be cooked for.

Lovely owner with amazing service in a cute house off the main port. This has been the best meal I’ve had so far in the south of France (Cannes, Nice, Menton, Villefranche-sur-Mer) with the best service I’ve experience in the past few weeks in France, even cleaning the crumbs off the table and changing utensils in between courses. The prix fixe course for lunch was a great selection. I had the octopus salad appetizer and the bisquebouille a la st jeannoise main (which had a lot of seafood in it)). The raspberry strawberry soup with vanilla ice cream was a refreshing finish to the meal. I will definitely go back soon!

This family-owned restaurant is absolutely spectacular!! Not only is the food delicious, but the owners are so charming and warm that we didn't want to ever leave!! You definitely need to make a reservation, they cannot accommodate walk-ins for dinner (at least, not when it's busy, which seems to be all the time!) Based on reviews, we got oysters, the grilled octopus (delicious), the fresh fish for 2 (sea bass) which was phenomenal, the steak, and for dessert, the famous strawberry soup with ice cream, and chocolate cake. Seafood is their specialty, so any grilled fish will be wonderful. I have never had fish like this. It was indescribably flavorful. We really felt that everything was just... cooked with love, and it shows. Would come here again in a heartbeat!!

We have been in the South of France from Cannes to Menton over the past month and, hands down, this is the best meal we have had. If you are looking for traditional French cooking, this is the place for you. The husband and wife owners—- he the chef and her running the front of the restaurant—-prepare wonderful food with care and served with grace and passion. With several specials of the day as well as two prizes fixe options at 3O and 34 euro, the price to quality can not be beat. However, it is the overall ambiance of the restaurant—- the quality of food, the presentation, the service, the price, the attitude of the owners—- which is just unsurpassable. We enjoyed every bite and every moment.

From start to finish, this is one of the most delicious meals I’ve ever had. This is a family-owned restaurant of over 30 years which serves fresh, homemade food. It is a super convenient 5 minute walk from the beautiful Paloma Beach in Saint Jean Cap Ferrat. The atmosphere is so cozy and feels like a wonderful escape from the touristic crowds. The owner, Nelly, is the sweetest person and makes you feel like you’re having your meal at your friend’s house. There is so much attention paid to detail, from the restaurant’s decorations to the presentation of each dish. Come here to enjoy authentic, fairly-priced cuisine!!!

The owners are a couple of Frenchs who opened the restaurant in 1986. They manage the whole restaurant. Nelly is the waitress and serves all the tables and make good food recommendations. Her husband is the main cook. The prices were very affordable. Portions really good. They speak German , English, Italian and French. The vibe is 80’s.

We stayed in St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat for 4 nights, and for our first 3 nights, we had overpriced bad food. We came across Capitaine Cook on a walk and we decided to go there for our last night. We wished we had found it early. The owners of the restaurant Nelly and Dionel were wonderful in every way. We had the best food we had on our stay in the south of France, down to every last detail, it was more than perfect. The food was exceptional. I will be coming back this year with out a doubt. We had the salmon ravioli, mussels (wow!) and a fish (wow!) she recommended to us (the potatoes and vegetables to accompany were unlike any normal potatoes and vegetables) which come with 3 sauces to go on the fish. Thank you so much for our dinner Nelly and Dionel.

Do yourself a favor and dine here NOW! Stumbled across this place walking the area and it instantly felt like home. I was blown away by the flavors and the perfect combination of ingredients. The oysters were decadent and the fish was cooked to perfection. The food is high class, yet had so much love, heart, and soul in it, which makes sense as the owners have been there for 30+ years. We had incredible service with sincere attention to detail. I would give ten stars if I could!
