Frank ~ the owner, 1 of the very nicest human beings that I have ever met during my 70+ spins around the sun, greeted us immediately upon our arrival. Dead exhausted from waking up @ 5:00 A.M. to catch our plane and walking 4 hours around Cannes in humid heat, the instant that we met Frank ~ his super loving vibrational energy totally recharged our batteries. Blessing us with a table literally next to the beach, he personally served our expertly crafted delicious Mai Tais. A little hungry after draining 2 of Frank's magical elixirs, we ordered the "Petits Farcis in Provencal Style" ~ tender and succulent minced veal and other extraordinary goodies stuffed in little veggie canoes served over shaved parmesan & arugula. The dish was so scrumptious that we ordered an encore. We plan to dine at world-class Vegaluna again tomorrow and several other nights during our stay in Cannes. Frank and his affable ultra friendly team ~ especially our server Charlotte, deserve our ******* SALUTE!!!! "THE ENCORE" Returning to Vegaluna last Friday for our Grand Finale lunch, the cheeseburger was over-the-top juicy & flavorful and the accompanying pommes frites super crispy. Enjoying 6 full days at Vegaluna's Beach Resort, the front row view of the Mediterranean Sea and the Théoule Sur Mer Mountains was magnificent. Frederique and Louis ~ the ultra friendly Beach Captains, did a super job in assuring that we always had everything we needed. Anticipating the pleasure of returning to Cannes next year for 2 weeks, we highly recommend Vegaluna and their affable team of Jean-Pierre, Alison, Charlotte, Sebastian, etc. And of course Christicly charismatic Frank and his "not falling far from the tree" son Matías. Our ******* salute and gratitude to Vegaluna!!!

Main dishes were from the grill - fish of the day and veal chops. Super yums! Fish was delicately tasty! Instagram @iambruisedlee

Loved loved this place ! Take their private boat in to their private beach that will take you in less than 15 minutes. We had a 2:30pm reservation at the restaurant but arrived in the morning and rented a lounge chair (80 euro) at their private beach and spent the hours relaxing and yacht watching. At 2:30 we headed to the restaurant that was pretty much all booked and had a delicious meal right in front of the beach. The staff is very attentive and very attractive. By the end of the lunch the music was blasting and people up their tables dancing. Fun fun place ! Before leaving we made a reservation for the next day. Do not miss this wonderful place.
