Welcome to Lovin Riviera
Your trusted authority on what to do, where to go, and what to eat on the French Riviera.
Our Mission
Lovin Riviera exists to answer a fundamental question: What is truly happening on the French Riviera right now?
For decades, the Côte d'Azur has attracted the world's most discerning travelers—people who understand that luxury isn't about generic tourism or mass-market recommendations. They seek insider knowledge, authentic experiences, and curated insights from someone who genuinely knows the region.
We created Lovin Riviera to be exactly that source. Not a travel blog. Not a content farm. A trusted authority that connects sophisticated travelers with the genuine, prestigious, and exclusive experiences that make the French Riviera iconic.
Why Lovin Riviera?
Authority Through Access
We monitor official event calendars from the Grimaldi Forum, Monte-Carlo SBM, Le Méridien, AMWC, and the Rolex Masters. We track venue announcements, ticketing updates, and emerging events in real-time. When you read "Rose Ball March 21," you're reading from the official SBM calendar—not speculation.
Curated, Not Comprehensive
We don't list every restaurant or beach club. We curate the best. This editorial rigor is why travelers trust our recommendations—we've done the filtering. Every recommendation reflects genuine quality, not paid placement or affiliate bloat.
Hyper-Local Intelligence
We understand that Monaco is not Nice is not Cannes. Each destination has distinct character, event calendars, dining scenes, and insider rhythms. Our city-specific guides acknowledge these nuances. A recommendation for Saint-Tropez differs fundamentally from advice for Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat.
Insider Tone, Transparent Method
We write like someone who knows the Riviera intimately—because we do. We also explicitly cite our sources (SBM, Grimaldi Forum, official ticketing pages) so you know exactly where information comes from. This transparency builds trust that generic travel blogs don't earn.
Personalization That Matters
You tell us when you're arriving, how long you're staying, and what matters to you. Then we filter the chaos. Rose Ball on March 21? Only relevant if your dates overlap. Rolex Masters April 4-12? We match against your calendar automatically. This personalization separates genuine concierge service from generic guides.
The Lovin Riviera Approach
Events with Authority
We track Rose Ball's official email (not available), AMWC's registration tiers (€310+), and Rolex Masters' published schedule with the same precision a concierge would. When Rose Ball says "booking not available," we explain what that means for access. When AMWC lists "Monaco Safe" venue status, we clarify the health/sanitary framework.
Dining That Elevates
Michelin stars matter. So does the chef's vision, the wine list, the waterfront setting, and the evening's rhythm. We describe dinners as experiences, not checkboxes. You'll know whether a venue suits a casual lunch, a romantic dinner, or black-tie business engagement.
Beach Clubs as Social Hubs
Tropéa in Saint-Tropez isn't just sand and cocktails. It's where style, networking, and leisure converge. We help you understand why certain beaches matter, what time to arrive, and what the ethos is.
Villas as Home Base
We connect you with luxury villa rentals aligned to your interests. Coming for the Rose Ball? We suggest villas in Monaco. Seeking Cannes Film Festival? We recommend properties in the hills above Cannes with quick access to the Croisette.
Culture as Currency
The Printemps des Arts festival, Opéra de Monte-Carlo performances, gallery openings—these define the Riviera's cultural calendar. We explain not just what's happening, but why it matters to the region's identity.

Our Story
My name is Sylwia Kaminska, and for the past six years I have been living and building my life on the French Riviera.
When I first arrived, I always wanted to understand the real rhythm of this region — where to go, which events truly mattered, how to be invited, how to meet the right people, and how to feel included in the society that makes the French Riviera so unique. Over time, I discovered that the Riviera is not only about beautiful views, beach clubs, yachts, and glamorous evenings. It is also about connections, timing, elegance, culture, and knowing where to be.
Alongside Lovin Riviera, I also run French Riviera Luxury Villas, where I work with clients looking for exceptional stays, private residences, and unforgettable holidays across the South of France. Very often, my clients would ask me the same questions:
Where should we go? What should we book? Which restaurant is worth it? Where can we find a hairdresser, a yoga class, a personal trainer, a private chef, or a business event worth attending?
As a very busy businesswoman, I realised that I could not always give every client the detailed personal guide they deserved. I wanted to create something beautiful, useful, and curated — a place where visitors, residents, entrepreneurs, and luxury travellers could discover the best of the French Riviera in one elegant destination.
This is how Lovin Riviera came to life.
Lovin Riviera was created to help you experience the Riviera with more confidence, more style, and more insider knowledge. Whether you are searching for the perfect restaurant, a beach club, a wellness appointment, a private concierge service, a luxury villa experience, or a business event where meaningful connections are made, Lovin Riviera is here to guide you.
I am also deeply invested in the business and investment community through Monaco Business Angels, where I am proudly involved. I believe that the French Riviera and Monaco are not only destinations for holidays, but also powerful places for networking, entrepreneurship, investment, and meeting some of the most influential people in the world.
Lovin Riviera is my personal invitation to discover the region as I see it — elegant, connected, inspiring, and full of opportunity.
Whether you live here, visit for the summer, come for business, or simply dream of experiencing the Riviera lifestyle, I created Lovin Riviera to help you know where to go, what to do, and how to be part of the moments that matter.
