Real estate in Cannes

Not every resort can boast of worldwide fame. Cannes is a city with a year-round population of just over 70,000 and covers almost 20 square kilometers, it is a coastal city with a wonderful climate and has become very popular all over the world.

Cannes attractions include the Chateau du Suquet, built in 1035 by the monks to fortify the city, which offers panoramic views of the Bay of Cannes. Iles de Lerins and Ile Sainte Marguerite, a large island where the Man in the Iron The mask was held captive for 11 years and can be visited in the Maritime Museum.

The world famous Palais des Festivals hosts numerous congresses and festivals throughout the year, the most famous of which is the International Film Festival, which attracts all film stars from all over the world to Cannes for twelve days in May, creating a unique atmosphere.

• MIPIM is an exhibition where developers from all over the world present their latest projects to potential investors.
• MIPCOM, an international film festival and market program for television, video, cable and satellite technologies, takes place in October.
• MIDEM, an exhibition on the World of Music market, is held in January.

Overall, there are about 11 exhibitions and festivals in Cannes a year. This economic activity has sparked a large investment in real estate in the center of Cannes. Indeed, there is such a problem that there are not enough hotel rooms to meet the demand at major exhibitions and peak summer periods. There are many apartments for rent in the center of Cannes, in the area known as 'La Banane', located between the Croisette and the ring road, where prices per square meter for purchase range from 4,000 to over 20,000 euros per square meter. Another prestigious destination is the Palm Beach area with its casinos and nightclubs.

The sandy beaches of the Croisette and in the West 'les plages du Midi' are ideal for summer vacations, places where you can enjoy Mediterranean cuisine, relax in the sun. Enjoy a ride on all water transport, or simply freshen up every morning with a walk along the streets of Cannes or the promenade. Many shops can be found including famous boutiques on the Croisette such as Gucci, Chanel, Dior, etc. On the Croisette embankment there are also some of the world's finest hotels, in particular "Carlton", "Majestic", and the "Martinez" hotel.

Cannes is located on two hills overlooking the bay, Californie in the east and Croix des Gardes in the west. These areas are the main residential areas and here you can find the best villas and apartments with the most spectacular views of Cannes, the islands and the hills to the west.
