Passing the attractive bars and restaurants of St Jean and the port filled with sleek yachts and families on the sandy beach, the chauffeur turns up the private road to Villa O. Ahead are tiers of terraces, screens of glass, and a tricolour of white walls, cobalt sky and pine green trees.
There are over 4,500 m² of gardens at the property. Lavender-lined pathways provide panoramic views over the peninsula and a cornucopia of flowers bursts through rockery walls. Olive, cypress and eucalyptus trees give shape and shade, whilst jasmine, rosemary and jacaranda perfume the entire estate.
From a vantage point of 100 metres, the rooftop terrace has an infinity pool with staggering views of the entire east-west meridian situated on the roof terrace.
A Balinese style pool house provides shade in which to read, dine or snooze away a hot summer afternoon. Day or night, the villa has several places to relax.
The villa has a dedicated surround-sound cinema with a comprehensive library of films and a kitchen for drinks, snacks and popcorn. The gallery lounge is both a study and bar area and there's Wi-Fi throughout the whole villa, allowing easy online access from any room in the property.
The outdoor gym has a multi-exercise lifecycle and free weights along with a black granite hammam and shower for post-workout relaxation. After a workout, guests can walk across to the pool and relax on a sun lounger.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner can be served in in-suite, on the terrace, in the dining room, on the lawn or by the pools. Dining tables seat up to 16 guests and at dinner, a candlelit wall (and even a log fire) flickers as the sun sets. Under a star-strewn sky, lights and music transform this space into a stunning club.
