La Plage du Martinez

4.6 / 5 · 422 Google reviews
73 Bd de la Croisette, Cannes

The beach of the Hôtel Martinez, on the eastern Croisette, open every day from 10am to 5pm — a day beach that closes when the beach clubs are just warming up. Listed here from the public record, with what we'd check, and ask, before going.

What the public record shows

La Plage du Martinez is listed on Google as a French restaurant at 73 boulevard de la Croisette. It carries a 4.6 rating across 422 reviews — a high score, but on a modest volume. That's fewer reviews than the big Croisette beaches gather, so the signal is lighter: strong as far as it goes, just built on a smaller sample. The listing names it as the beach of the Hôtel Martinez, and its official page sits on the Hyatt group's restaurants domain.

The most telling detail is the hours: every day from 10am to 5pm. That closing time is the practical trait that sets it apart from the Croisette beach clubs that roll straight into the evening — this is a day beach, and the day ends at five. On budget, the public listing shows only the top band, €€€€, with no figure attached. No price is published, so we won't guess at one.

Where it sits in Cannes

Number 73 puts it on the eastern stretch of the Croisette, facing the sea — the high numbers run toward the far end of the bay, past the central promenade. Public reviews come back often to the beach itself, the waiting staff, how smiling they are, the cocktails, the hotel and the loungers, which reads consistent with a listing whose day runs from mid-morning to late afternoon.

What we'd check before going

We haven't spent a day here ourselves, so treat this as a sourced notebook entry, not a review. A Croisette beach is a seasonal business and this record is a snapshot: days and hours move with the season, so we'd confirm the 10am-to-5pm window applies on the date we want before setting off. We'd call ahead — the number is public — to ask what a lounger and a table actually cost, since only the €€€€ band appears and never a figure. And we'd ask how a booking works here, given the beach is attached to the hotel.

We'll add our own verified notes after a visit. For now, the rating, the address and the closing time are the honest signals.
