"Beaulieu-sur-mer" Beaulieu-sur-Mer by Elainehead

Situated 10 km from Nice and its international airport, Beaulieu is near the sea and covers an area of 95 ha. Nestled amongst abundant vegetation, Beaulieu means 'beautiful place' in French, and it is aptly named. With its beaches bordered by palm trees, the superb light and warm temperatures for most of the year, Beaulieu is one of the most delightful spots on the Côte d'Azur. Frequented in the past by royalty and members of the aristocracy, Beaulieu today continues to be a high-class village in true Mediterranean style. The luxurious properties, beautiful parks and gardens, as well as the extravagant limousines that you will come across in Beaulieu all remind you that this is the heart of the Côte d'Azur.
