Villa Genesis

Menton has lemons. It also has a five-star villa. Try to contain your surprise.

Villa Genesis occupies a renovated period villa in Menton, around 100 metres from the sea according to the hotel, with a pool, garden and bar.

The address feels far more residential than Monaco's grand hotels and lets you explore Menton, nearby Italy and the eastern Riviera without necessarily paying the premium that comes with a Casino Square address.

THE MAMETAS VERDICT

An elegant, calmer base for Menton. The kind of town where walking to the market is still considered a normal activity. Enjoy it.

Why we keep it

Menton works extremely well as a rail base for Monaco, Roquebrune and Ventimiglia while still being a destination in its own right.

The pool gives the villa a real holiday feel without turning it into an oversized resort.

Who it suits

  • You want to explore Menton and the eastern Riviera.
  • You prefer a villa to an urban palace.
  • Pool, garden and calm matter more than nightlife.

Look elsewhere if...

  • You are coming solely to go out in Monaco every night.
  • You want Menton's old town right outside your door.
  • You require a private hotel beach.
