Monte Carlo
Old-world salon privé still beats the new megaresorts
Monaco is small, discreet, and exceptionally efficient at separating wealth from the wealthy. Casino de Monte-Carlo's Salon Privé is invitation-based but accessible — the bar is high spend, not pedigree. Pair with a Cap-Ferrat hotel and a yacht hop down to Saint-Tropez for the full weekend.
The thing locals know that nobody writes down
Fly into Nice (NCE), then 7-minute helicopter to Monaco Heliport. Monacair is essentially a shuttle service. Easier and faster than the road on race week / yacht show / Grand Prix weekend.
