Torre Grimaldi is a restored historic tower set in the botanical park of Castello Voronoff, on the Ligurian coast near Menton. Originally a Saracen lookout and later a Genoese defensive tower, it is now a characterful house. Set on multiple levels connected by a steep staircase made of original stone, the tower features a living area with a kitchenette, indoor and outdoor dining spaces, and is ideal for up to four guests. A rooftop and garden terraces set the scene for drinks, meals and relaxation with a backdrop of sweeping sea views. As the tower forms part of a larger estate overlooking Menton and the Mediterranean, guests have access to the estate’s large shared swimming pool, tennis court and gardens. Positioned above the town of Grimaldi Inferiore, the panoramic location also offers convenient access to both the Italian Riviera and the French coast.
