Cannes, France

The Cannes Film Festival might be over, but the South of France’s sunny weather remains intact throughout September. When here, stroll along La Croisette — a beachside promenade sporting the chicest of shops — and admire views of the riviera via the hilltop, historic fort of Musée de la Castre in the town’s Le Souquet neighborhood. Located right on La Croisette, opt to spend your vacation at Hôtel Barrière Le Majestic Cannes. One of the area’s most famous places to stay, every corridor exudes old-age European glamour, and beach views from rooms & suites are the norm.
