Juan-Les-Pins: Holiday apartments and holiday homes

Juan-les-Pins was founded as a seaside resort in 1882. When planning a stay in Juan-les-Pins, you may wish to rent a holiday apartment.

Coast

The public sandy beaches of Juan-les-Pins stretch from the centre to the town limits in the direction of Golfe-Juan. They have lifeguard stations, dining options, showers and toilets.

The Promenade du Soleil begins at the end of Boulevard Edouard Baudoin and offers cafés, restaurants, private beaches and views of the sea. Antibes Juan-les-Pins has been classified as the Natura 2000 site “Baie et cap d’Antibes – îles de Lérins” since 2013.

Culture

La Pinède is a pine grove by the sea in the heart of Juan-les-Pins. In the northern part there is a children’s playground, a carousel, a sculpture by Sosno and benches beneath umbrella pines. Every July, La Pinède Gould becomes an open-air events venue and has been the setting for the Jazz à Juan festival since 1960.

Belles Rives in Juan-les-Pins stands on the site of the former Villa Saint-Louis and was extended and modernised in the Art Deco style in 1931. Villa la Vigie is an ochre-coloured, seemingly medieval small château and was owned by Frank and Florence Jay Gould. Invited artists and writers lived at Villa la Vigie, including Jean Cocteau, Estée Lauder, Charlie Chaplin and Pablo Picasso.

The Tourist and Convention Office offers the guided tour “Juan-les-Pins, de la Belle Epoque aux Années Folles”. It covers the history of the seaside resort, Belle Époque villas and gardens, Roaring Twenties palaces and dance halls, as well as La Pinède Gould.
