Marinières Plage
An authentic beach club between turquoise sea and Mediterranean lifestyle
Nestled in the heart of the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer, often described as the most beautiful in the world, Marinières Plage perfectly embodies the spirit of the French Riviera. Between the deep blue sea, the green hills, and the colorful houses along the coast, this beach club is an invitation to light, calm, and simplicity. Just minutes from Nice, it offers a family-friendly atmosphere, a seafront restaurant, and a peaceful setting where time slows down naturally.
Everything here reflects the elegance of the Riviera lifestyle. Golden sand, crystal-clear water, and the perfect curve of the bay create a scene that feels timeless. In the morning, the first light touches the neatly arranged sunbeds. At noon, the sea breeze cools the warm air. In the evening, golden light glows on the white sails of yachts anchored in the bay. Each moment feels effortless — bright, warm, and full of life.
Marinières Plage captures the essence of Mediterranean living: authentic, relaxed, and close to nature. The beauty of the setting, the quality of the service, and the simplicity of the atmosphere make it one of the most charming beach clubs on the French Riviera.

The Marinières Plage Experience
From the first step onto the sand, Marinières Plage radiates calm and authenticity. There is no noise or excess — just the sound of the waves, the scent of the sea, and the glow of the sun. White parasols and soft sunbeds line the beach in perfect harmony. The sea stretches endlessly in shades of turquoise, and the light changes throughout the day. The atmosphere is relaxed yet refined, simple but full of character.
The staff welcome each guest with a natural warmth. Every smile and every gesture reflect the gentle hospitality that defines the Mediterranean. Visitors feel immediately at home, cared for and understood. Whether for a quiet morning coffee or a full day by the sea, Marinières Plage offers a space to breathe and enjoy life at a slower pace.
The beach transforms as the day goes by. In the morning, it’s peaceful and bright. Around midday, it becomes alive with families, laughter, and music. At sunset, the mood softens, the air cools, and the sky turns shades of pink and gold. It is a place to connect with nature, to feel both grounded and free — the true Riviera rhythm.
The sunbeds are arranged in pairs with tables and parasols, ensuring privacy and comfort. Set directly on the sand, they invite you to relax between sea and sky. You can stretch out, close your eyes, and let the sound of the waves and the light breeze wash over you. This is the real meaning of farniente — the art of doing nothing, beautifully.
Service is smooth and attentive. You can order drinks, dishes, or desserts directly from your sunbed. Every detail — from the chilled rosé to the neatly folded towel — is designed for ease and pleasure. Whether you come for an hour or the whole day, everything feels natural and harmonious.
The décor at Marinières Plage reflects the spirit of Villefranche-sur-Mer — bohemian chic, light, and full of charm. The materials are simple and elegant: light wood, woven rattan, linen, and touches of blue that mirror the colors of the bay. The restaurant tables sit just a few meters from the water, and in the evening, the warm glow of wicker lamps gives the whole beach a soft, golden tone.
Here, nothing feels staged. The space invites you to slow down, to enjoy the small details — a reflection on the water, a gust of sea breeze, a laugh carried by the wind. Marinières Plage is a place where time expands and the simplest pleasures become the most memorable.

Lunch by the Sea, Riviera Style
Dining at Marinières Plage celebrates the Riviera art of living. The morning begins with the sound of waves and the smell of fresh coffee. By midday, the restaurant comes alive: conversations mix with the sound of cutlery and the soft music from the terrace. Plates of grilled fish, colorful salads, and local specialties bring the essence of the Mediterranean straight to your table.
The chef highlights the region’s best ingredients — olive oil, lemon, fresh vegetables, and seafood. Each dish is light, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Guests can choose between the shaded terrace for a quiet lunch or full beach service from their sunbed, with the sea just steps away. The service is smiling, attentive, and discreet, making each meal flow effortlessly.
For something refreshing, the ceviche and tartare pair perfectly with a glass of chilled rosé. For a richer option, the grilled fish or plancha meats are a must. And for a taste of local tradition, the Pan Bagnat — the iconic sandwich of Nice — remains the signature dish. Simple, sunny, and delicious, it’s a true reflection of the Côte d’Azur spirit.
As the sun begins to set, the golden light bathes the beach and the music softens. The atmosphere becomes almost poetic. The horizon glows, the air cools, and guests linger over their final drink, watching the light fade.
MySunbed Spirit in Villefranche-sur-Mer
As the evening descends on the bay, the sea turns silver and the lights of Villefranche reflect softly on the water. This is when Marinières Plage reveals its truest soul. Neither too glamorous nor too quiet, it captures that perfect balance of warmth, calm, and elegance that defines the MySunbed philosophy.
Here, the experience is not just coastal — it’s emotional. Every sound, scent, and gesture creates a sense of harmony and belonging. Luxury is never loud; it lives in sincerity, simplicity, and the beauty of the moment.
Marinières Plage is the French Riviera at its purest: luminous, peaceful, and full of inspiration. A place to rediscover the joy of being by the sea, where every visit feels like a timeless escape between sky, sand, and light.
