The Destination

A seaside town, Mandelieu-La Napoule offers a chic yet relaxed lifestyle on the Côte d’Azur. Nestled in an exceptional setting between the Mediterranean, the Estérel mountains and the Tanneron forest, it is crossed by numerous canals and bordered by the bucolic banks of the River Siagne.

Event organisers will find in Mandelieu a variety of remarkable, historically rich venues: spectacular seaside castles, historic and artistically inspired 18-hole golf courses, dining venues with preserved settings between beaches and riverbanks, and the breathtaking natural scenery shaped by the red rocks of the Estérel, offering an unforgettable panorama.

This destination perfectly combines work sessions and leisure activities — the ideal illustration of BLEISURE!
