The most storied address on the Cote d'Azur, a grand nineteenth century villa in pine filled grounds with a legendary seafront pavilion, for a couple who want Riviera glamour at its source.
Hotel du Cap Eden Roc occupies the tip of Cap d'Antibes, set between Cannes and Monaco in around twenty acres of landscaped parkland that runs down to the sea. The Eden Roc pavilion above the water, its saltwater pool carved into the rock and the long Grande Allee have hosted the most photographed celebrations in the world. As an Oetker Collection grande dame it delivers a level of service and polish very few venues anywhere can match.
The honest truth is access and timing. A full buyout is offered only in a narrow window, typically April to mid May and some September dates, before the Cannes Film Festival and the height of summer. Dates go a year or two ahead and the budget sits at the very top of the market. Marry here when nothing but the legend will do, and book early.
Hotel du Cap Eden Roc does not publish a fixed venue fee. Weddings are quoted as a minimum spend that varies with the date, the spaces used and whether you privatise the estate, and it sits firmly at the top of the European market. As an indicative May 2026 guide, a wedding here typically begins in the mid six figures once accommodation, catering, production and a buyout are combined, and rises well beyond for the largest celebrations. Treat every figure as a planning estimate and confirm directly with the hotel.
A wedding of this scale on the cape needs a planner the hotel trusts and who knows its rhythms, suppliers and the festival calendar. We will introduce a vetted Riviera team who has delivered here before.

The Iles de Lerins ballroom seats up to around 200 guests, while the gardens and the Grande Allee carry significantly larger receptions when the estate is privatised. Confirm the right space for your numbers directly with the hotel.
A full buyout is possible but offered only in a narrow window, typically spring and some September dates, before the Cannes Film Festival and high summer. If privatisation matters to you, the date is the first thing to lock.
There is no fixed venue fee. Weddings are quoted as a minimum spend that depends on the date, the spaces used and whether you privatise the estate, and it sits at the very top of the market.

Late spring and September are the loveliest on the cape, warm and clear without the peak crowds. The buyout window also falls in those shoulder months, so the best weather and the best access happen to align. Book one to two years ahead.
