Sainte-Marguerite, with its timeless allure, has long been a sanctuary for the world's elite. Occupying an island with a storied past. The island's previous owners include none other than Louis XIV and the illustrious 15th-century Dukes of Guise. Legend has it that the infamous Man in the Iron Mask, believed to be Louis XIV's brother, was once held captive within the fortress on this very island. Even Napoleon himself is said to have grazed his horses in the gardens while cannonballs were prepared elsewhere, ready to be unleashed upon passing ships.
Sainte-Marguerite, the largest of the four islands in the Lérins archipelago, has long been a source of inspiration for renowned artists such as Pablo Picasso, Francis Picabia, and photographer Lee Miller. Their visits to the island sought respite from the mainland, drawing from its undeniable beauty and serenity.
