This five-bedroom Garden Villa of exceptional scale is centred around the historic rotunda of Le Provençal. Once the grand ballroom of the former hotel, Villa Zelda is defined by extraordinary volume, natural light and a provenance unlike any other residence on Cap d’Antibes.
Today, this remarkable home has been reimagined in collaboration with Invisible Collection, the internationally renowned gallery celebrated for championing contemporary collectable design. The result is a residence where architectural heritage, craftsmanship, and artistry come together in a way that feels timeless and deeply personal.
Arranged across approximately 6,500 sq.ft, Villa Zelda is centred around a spectacular double-height rotunda. This striking reception space once welcomed royalty, artists, and cultural icons including Coco Chanel and Elizabeth Taylor, as well as F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda, after whom Villa Zelda is named.
Rising through the heart of the rotunda, a grand staircase and private lift connect the two levels of the residence. Inspired by the Riviera’s enduring culture of creativity and collecting, Invisible Collection has curated a selection of bespoke furnishings, sculptural pieces and contemporary works, from the Steinway grand piano that anchors the reception room to the marble and mahogany cocktail bar designed for elegant entertaining. Together, they bring warmth, character and individuality to the distinguished architecture, creating interiors that feel both cultivated and deeply personal.
Five bedroom suites offer a sense of calm and privacy, including a principal suite with twin dressing rooms, dual marble bathrooms, and a private beauty suite. A cinema room and discreetly positioned back-of-house facilities are designed to support effortless entertaining and private life at scale.
Beyond the interior, more than 6,800 sq.ft. of private terraces and landscaped gardens extend the living experience outdoors with a 30ft private pool perfectly positioned for days enjoyed beneath the Riviera sun.
Natural stone, rich woods and hand-finished materials are balanced with contemporary collectable design throughout the residence, creating spaces that feel layered, sophisticated and confident. The result is a home that reflects the spirit of Villa Zelda itself: a residence shaped by history, elevated by craftsmanship and designed to be lived in for generations.
The most architecturally significant residence within Le Provençal’s private collection of 35 homes on Cap d’Antibes, Villa Zelda is an opportunity of rare distinction.
