The château
1865
Built during the golden age of Cap d'Antibes
Built as a grand residence on the western side of the Cap, the château embodies the elegance that came to define the Riviera during the Belle Époque. Its reception rooms, terraces and gardens open towards exceptional views of Cannes and the Mediterranean.
Following the Russian Revolution, the estate became associated with Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolaievich Romanov. Within these walls, members of one of Europe's most influential royal dynasties found refuge during a period of extraordinary change.
Château Algarve remains a genuine private home. Period details and rich interiors meet relaxed gardens and sea-facing terraces, welcoming guests for remarkable holidays, intimate gatherings and creative productions.
