AREA GUIDE & LIFESTYLE
Antibes: The French Riviera's Best-Kept Treasure
"A city where 2,500 years of history meet the shimmering blue of the Mediterranean and modern luxury finds its most natural home."
Antibes is one of the oldest cities on the French Riviera, founded by the ancient Greeks over 2,500 years ago and refined by centuries of Mediterranean civilisation. Today, it stands as one of the most sought-after addresses on the Côte d'Azur. A city that seamlessly blends an extraordinary historic heritage with a vibrant, cosmopolitan present. From the medieval ramparts of the Vieille Ville to the glamorous superyacht marina of Port Vauban, from the pristine pine-covered peninsula of Cap d'Antibes to the lively beachfront of Juan-les-Pins, Antibes offers a breadth of lifestyle and real estate that few cities anywhere in the world can rival
For buyers seeking new build property on the French Riviera, Antibes represents an exceptional opportunity. It occupies the coveted central position in the golden triangle between Cannes and Nice with all the advantages of a major international city, yet with a sense of authentic Provençal character that larger urban centres inevitably lose.

The Antibes Lifestyle
Life in Antibes moves to the most pleasurable of rhythms. Mornings begin at the Marché Provençal, where the stalls overflow with local cheeses, olives, lavender, and the vivid colours of the season's best produce. Afternoons are spent on the beaches of the Cap, in the turquoise waters of the Calanques, or sailing from Port Vauban into the Mediterranean. Evenings bring candlelit dinners in the Vieille Ville's ancient squares, where the stone walls glow gold in the warm Riviera light.
The annual Jazz à Juan festival, held on the beaches of Juan-les-Pins each July, is one of the oldest and most celebrated jazz festivals in the world. For sailing enthusiasts, the Les Voiles d'Antibes classic yacht regatta each June is equally unmissable. Antibes also offers outstanding practical infrastructure, international schools in nearby Valbonne and Sophia Antipolis, excellent private healthcare, and a direct TGV rail connection to Paris.
Why New Build Properties in Antibes Are So Sought-After
New build developments in Antibes are carefully controlled by strict planning regulations that protect the city's historic character and the natural beauty of the Cap d'Antibes peninsula.

INVESTMENT CASE
The Investment Case for Antibes Property
"Between Cannes and Nice, Antibes occupies the golden centre of the Riviera and its property
market reflects exactly that"
The Antibes property market benefits from one of the most advantageous positions on the entire Côte d'Azur. Situated precisely between Cannes and Nice, within 20 minutes of the international airport, and at the heart of the Sophia Antipolis technology corridor, Antibes enjoys structural demand drivers that few Riviera locations can match. For investors, the combination of a strong rental market, constrained supply, and internationally recognised desirability creates a compelling long-term investment case.
Market Fundamentals: Why Antibes Endures
○ Central location between Cannes and Nice, maximum accessibility, minimum compromise
○ Geographic constraint on Cap d'Antibes and the Vieille Ville ensures permanent supply scarcity
○ Sophia Antipolis proximity drives consistent year-round professional rental demand
○ Port Vauban: Europe's largest superyacht marina. Anchors high-net-worth seasonal visitors
○ Strong international buyer base from across Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas
○ Direct TGV to Paris (5.5 hours) and 20 minutes to Nice Côte d'Azur International Airport
Investment Performance at a Glance
○ Average price per m² (Antibes): €6,500 – €15,000+ (Cap d'Antibes premium)
○ New build premium vs resale: Typically 15–25% higher long-term value retention
○ Gross rental yield (luxury): 3–5% p.a. long let · 6–9%+ seasonal
○ Peak rental demand periods: Cannes Film Festival, Jazz à Juan, July–August
○ Weekly villa rental (peak): €8,000 – €20,000+ depending on spec and location
○ Capital growth trend (10 yrs): Consistent appreciation. Strong Riviera outperformance
○ Sophia Antipolis employment: 36,000 workers with year-round residential rental demand
○ Notaire fees (new build): Approx. 2–3% (vs 7–8% for resale)
Antibes: An Exceptional Rental Income Potential
Antibes generates strong rental yields across both the long-let and short-let markets. The large professional population at Sophia Antipolis creates consistent demand for high-quality long-term rentals throughout the year. During the summer season, Antibes' beaches, marina, and proximity to Cannes drive intense demand for luxury holiday rentals, with weekly rates for a well-positioned villa with pool reaching €8,000 to €20,000 or more during peak periods.
Investors operating under the LMNP (Loueur Meublé Non Professionnel) furnished rental regime benefit from the ability to offset property depreciation against rental income, a highly tax-efficient structure that materially enhances net yields.
Antibes vs the Wider Riviera Market
Between the glamour of Cannes and the cosmopolitan energy of Nice, Antibes holds a uniquely privileged position offering authentic Provençal character, world-class connectivity, and a property market with deep, structural demand. Comparable new build villas in Cannes or Cap Ferrat often carry a 20–40% premium for equivalent specification, making Antibes an outstanding value proposition within the luxury segment without any compromise on prestige or lifestyle. For buyers seeking genuine Riviera living with outstanding investment credentials, Antibes is simply unmatched.
