— 01 · An invitation
A private residence that has, for nearly six decades, learned the art of holding extraordinary evenings.
Carved into the Esterel hillside, opening onto the Mediterranean.
Designed by the celebrated architect Jacques Couëlle, Villa Oxygène remains one of the most distinctive residences above Cannes — a place of curved white walls, terraced gardens, and sea-light that moves through the day like a slow choreography.
For decades, artists, actors, athletes, royal families, founders, and global brands have gathered here. We welcome private stays, events, and productions with the same discretion and care, led by owner and host Richard Nilsson.

A personal
welcome.
The house recedes.
The purpose remains.
Richard Nilsson is the owner and host of Villa Oxygène. He begins with the reason people are coming together, then shapes the residence, hospitality, and supporting team around that purpose.
That continuity—from first conversation to final departure—is what allows the experience to feel personal, controlled, and unforced.
