The Riviera is not a season. It is a place, which is extraordinary on a Thursday in October just as it is on a Saturday in April. Luxuria builds bespoke luxury tennis weekends year-round, for clients who understand that the best time to be there is whenever they can go.
There is a question we are asked more than almost any other: do I have to come during the Masters? The answer is no. Emphatically, enthusiastically, no. The Masters runs for ten days in April and we design extraordinary weeks around it but the Côte d'Azur is there for the other three hundred and fifty-five. The courts are available.
The coastline is extraordinary. The restaurants are open. And the tennis, which is played on a private court above the sea on a Friday morning in September, with no one else in sight, is available to anyone who decides that this weekend is the one.
What a great Riviera tennis weekend requires is not a major tournament. It requires a good court, a good coach, a well-chosen hotel, and the knowledge to bring all three together so that the weekend flows from first morning to last evening without friction or effort. That knowledge is what Luxuria provides.
We have been designing these weekends for years, in every month of the year, for clients who have looked at a free weekend in the diary and decided to turn it into something worth remembering.
You do not need a tournament to have the finest tennis weekend of your life. You need the right court, the right coach, and someone who knows how to arrange everything else. That is exactly what Luxuria does — on any weekend you choose.
THE EXPERIENCE
What the Weekend Feels Like.
The car meets you at Nice Côte d'Azur upon your arrival. By the time you reach the hotel, which takes about twenty minutes along the coast, the week you came from is already behind you. We are there to welcome you with you weekend briefing: court times, coach details, restaurant confirmations. Everything is already done.
Next day begins on a private clay court before the heat of the day arrives. Your coach has been briefed on what you want to work on. The coffee is courtside. The light at this hour is extraordinary. For ninety minutes the only thing that exists is the game — and when the session ends you are already playing better than when it began.
The hours between sessions belong entirely to you. A boat, a long lunch on a terrace above the sea, a private wine tasting in the hills above Grasse, a spa afternoon, a walk or a drive along the Corniche. Luxuria arranges whatever the weekend calls for. On your last day, a morning session, followed by a final lunch, and a transfer back to Nice with the particular quality of tiredness that only comes from two days spent doing exactly the right thing in exactly the right place.
ON COACHING Every Luxuria weekend includes private sessions with a coach from our network of Riviera professionals. We match the coach to the client and brief them before you arrive, so the first session begins with purpose.
THE POSSIBILITIES
Five Weekends. Any Time of Year.
01 The Improvement Weekend
For the player with a specific goal
Two focused sessions with a professional coach, built around exactly what you want to fix. A structured Saturday morning, a day at your own pace in between, and a Sunday session that puts the work into practice. You leave playing better than you arrived — which is the point.
02 The Escape Weekend
For the player who simply needs to be on a court somewhere extraordinary
No agenda. No goals beyond the game itself. A private court above the sea, a coach who meets you where you are, and afternoons that go wherever they want to go. The weekend Luxuria designs most often, and the one that produces the most consistently joyful responses.
03 The Couples Weekend
For one player and one partner who both deserve an extraordinary trip
The tennis player has two private sessions with an excellent coach. Their partner has a weekend of curated Riviera pleasure — a sailing morning, a spa afternoon, a wine tasting in the hills. Both people have an extraordinary day. Both come home already planning the return.
04 The Winter Weekend
For the player who refuses to let the season end
November on the Côte d'Azur is one of the great secrets in European travel. The summer crowds are gone. The light is low and extraordinary. The restaurants have their best tables available. The courts are empty and entirely yours. A Luxuria winter weekend is quieter, more intimate, and by the consistent verdict of those who take it — entirely worth it.
05 The Long Weekend
Thursday to Sunday — when four days is exactly right
Two hours from London by air, the Côte d'Azur rewards staying just a little longer than planned. Four mornings gives you three court sessions and one entirely at your own pace. Three evenings means three different tables, each chosen for a different reason. The Saturday afternoon — usually compressed by logistics — becomes the long, unhurried afternoon the Riviera has always promised.
These are just examples of what we can provide you, come talk to us for us to prepare a bespoke trip for you.
YEAR ROUND
Every Season. A Different Riviera.
Spring brings the Masters and the most celebrated weeks on the coast with its warm lights, courts in perfect condition, the coast at its most alive. Summer rewards those who know where to be: private courts away from the crowds, early morning sessions before the heat, coves the day-trippers never find. Autumn is the Riviera's best-kept secret, the sea at its warmest, the crowds gone, the light shifting from white to gold, the restaurants relaxed and generous. Winter is quiet, luminous, and almost entirely yours: the coast in January has a stillness that is genuinely remarkable, and a Luxuria weekend there is the luxury of a magnificent place with nothing competing for your attention.
Every season works. Every weekend is available. The only question is which one you choose.
LUXURIA DESIGNS THIS Luxuria designs bespoke tennis weekends year-round on the Côte d'Azur. Availability is generally excellent outside the Masters fortnight — and we have designed extraordinary weekends with as little as two weeks' notice. The Riviera is ready. So are we.
