Set Sail Directly from the Hotel : Discover Ilot du Golf's Private Marina

Some hotels are close to the sea. Ilot du Golf has its own private marina.
It's a unique feature that makes all the difference. There's no need to drive to a harbour, catch a shuttle or search for a boat rental company elsewhere. The boats are waiting just a few metres from reception, moored on the peaceful waters of the Siagne River. Simply step aboard and let the river guide you towards the Mediterranean.
This is what true direct access to the sea looks like—and on the French Riviera, it's an exceptionally rare privilege.
The Siagne River : Your Gateway to the Mediterranean
Before reaching the open sea, there's the Siagne River. Flowing alongside the hotel, it's far more than a beautiful backdrop—it's a destination in its own right. Glide along the water aboard a silent electric boat, explore by kayak or discover the river on a paddle bike. It's entirely possible to spend half a day on the Siagne without ever reaching the sea, surrounded by peaceful, unspoilt scenery that few visitors to the French Riviera ever experience.
For those wishing to venture further, the Mediterranean is only a few minutes away. Thanks to the hotel's exceptional waterfront location, you can quickly reach the Bay of Cannes, the spectacular Estérel coastline, or the beautiful Lérins Islands.

Our On-Site Partner :Riviera Boat Club
All water-based experiences departing from the hotel's private marina are operated in partnership with Riviera Boat Club, located directly on-site at 681 Avenue de la Mer. Their experienced team offers a modern, meticulously maintained fleet and a wide selection of experiences tailored to every type of visitor—from complete beginners to experienced boaters.
Whether you're travelling as a couple, with family or friends, whether you hold a boating licence or not, and whether you're planning a one-hour excursion or a full day on the water, there's an experience designed just for you.
Boat Hirewith or without a Skipper
The fleet includes :
• Easy-to-operate boats that require no boating licence
• RIBs and open motorboats for guests holding a coastal boating licence
• Fully skippered experiences for those who simply want to relax and enjoy the journey
Choose between electric or petrol-powered boats, half-day or full-day rentals, depending on the experience you're looking for.
It's the perfect way to enjoy a family trip to the Lérins Islands, cruise along the dramatic coastline of the Estérel Massif, or simply spend a peaceful afternoon anchored in one of the Riviera's hidden coves.

The Lérins Islands– Just 20 Minutes from Our Private Marina
Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat are among the French Riviera's most beautiful and unspoilt destinations. Crystal-clear turquoise waters, fragrant pine forests, historic ruins and an underwater eco-museum that can be explored while snorkelling... all without the crowds often found along the mainland coast.
Departing directly from Ilot du Golf's private marina, the islands are just 20 minutes away by boat. For those who prefer to sit back and enjoy the scenery, a two-hour guided excursion with skipper is also available, allowing you to discover the islands without having to navigate yourself.
Before setting off, don't forget to order a gourmet picnic or light lunch prepared by Le K Restaurant—the perfect finishing touch to a memorable day at sea.
Reach Cannes by Water Taxiin Just 25 Minutes
One of the hotel's most distinctive experiences is undoubtedly the water taxi service. Depart directly from our private marina and arrive at Cannes Old Port in around 25 minutes, enjoying spectacular views of the Bay of Cannes along the way.
For leisure travellers, it's a memorable and elegant alternative to sitting in traffic along the Corniche.
For business travellers, it's also a practical way to reach the Palais des Festivals during major international events such as :
• Cannes Film Festival
• MIPIM
• MAPIC
• TFWA
• ILTM
Arriving in Cannes by sea is an experience that's every bit as impressive as the destination itself.

🌊 Explore the Estérel Coast by Jet Ski
Looking for a little more excitement? Jet ski excursions departing directly from the marina offer a thrilling way to discover the spectacular Estérel coastline, where dramatic red volcanic cliffs plunge into the deep blue waters of the Mediterranean. It's one of the most breathtaking coastal landscapes on the French Riviera—and one best experienced from the water.
🪂E-Foil: Fly Above the Water
One of the newest experiences available at Riviera Boat Club is the electric e-foil. This innovative electric hydrofoil board literally lifts you above the surface of the water, creating the exhilarating sensation of flying silently across the sea. Morning introductory sessions depart directly from the hotel's marina and are suitable for both beginners and experienced riders. Combining the freedom of surfing with the smooth glide of electric propulsion, it's an unforgettable way to experience the Mediterranean.
🚴 Paddle Bike: Cycling on the Water
Half paddleboard, half bicycle, the paddle bike offers a fun and original way to explore the peaceful waters of the Siagne River. Suitable for all ages and fitness levels, it's the perfect activity for discovering the river at your own pace while enjoying the calm surroundings and beautiful natural scenery.
🤿 Snorkelling & Exclusive Boat Experiences
Throughout the season, Riviera Boat Club offers a variety of themed excursions departing directly from the hotel's marina.
