A private estate on Île Sainte-Marguerite off Cannes, taken exclusively, a wooded island retreat minutes by boat from the Croisette yet entirely apart from it.
Île Sainte-Marguerite is the wooded island you see from the Croisette, all umbrella pines, eucalyptus and old fortifications. Le Grand Jardin is a private estate on it, taken exclusively, a few minutes by boat from Cannes yet a world removed.
The estate offers bedrooms, a pool, gardens and a chef, with the island’s trails and swimming coves beyond the gate and the whole glittering Riviera a short crossing away.
Every experience begins with a single click. Tell us when and with who and we'll design a world around you.
The estate holds several bedrooms in refined Riviera style, opening to a pool and gardens under the umbrella pines, with the bay glinting through the trees.
Taken exclusively, the whole property, house, grounds and staff, belongs to your party.
A chef cooks to your party alone: Provençal and Mediterranean, seafood from the coast, rosé from the hills, in the garden, by the pool or on a terrace over the sea.
There is no menu but yours; dinners are laid wherever the evening suits, and Cannes’ tables are a boat away.
Île Sainte-Marguerite is a nature reserve of pine trails, eucalyptus groves, swimming coves and the old fort that once held the Man in the Iron Mask, all beyond your gate.
A short boat opens Cannes, Antibes, the Cap and Monaco; your designer sets the coast days and the evenings out.
Ultima’s wellness comes to the estate, treatments, a gym and the pool, with a therapist arranged as you like.
The island itself, car-free and wooded, is the deeper cure; swim, walk and let Cannes stay across the water.
The estate runs with its own Ultima team, chef, butler, boat, for your party alone, discreet and exact.
Behind them sits your Satopia travel designer, who holds the estate, times the boats and stays one call away throughout.
The Riviera’s glamour is a boat ride away, festivals, harbours, the Croisette, but the island keeps you apart from it, wooded, quiet and private.
The combination is the point: everything the coast offers, none of the crowd, on your own island.
Everything here is to help you picture it. Your travel designer handles the arranging: the flights, the cars, the guides, the tents held for you alone.
A whole estate off Cannes for a milestone, with the Riviera a boat away.
Pines, a pool and a chef, with the Croisette close but never crowding you.
The film festival or a summer season, with your own island to retreat to each night.
Antibes, the Cap and Monaco by boat, and the island by night.

The Satopia Advantage™
We hold the relationship with Le Grand Jardin, so we can take the whole estate for your party on your dates, festival weeks included. From there a single travel designer composes every day around you. You simply arrive.
The entire estate, and its team, held for your party and the season. The access a direct booking rarely reaches.
Every day composed by one travel designer: the coast and the coves, the boats and the evenings out, present when wanted, unseen when not.
Drawn from recent guests.
The crossing from the old port in Cannes takes about ten minutes across the water. Staff meet arrivals at the quiet dock with cooling towels before the short transfer. Estate vehicles then wind along shaded woodland paths directly to the main house.
Wake early before the day trippers arrive to swim off the rocky coastal coves. Staff can prepare a beach bag with towels and water so you can wander down the shaded paths undisturbed. Afterwards, enjoy breakfast on the terrace using ingredients from the kitchen garden.
The Riviera is on the doorstep. A few we would pair the estate with, each arranged as one seamless experience.
Follow the coast east to Monaco, the corniches and the harbour, by boat or car.
