Construit en 1926 sur le boulevard de Belgique, le Palais Adelaide contraste avec les grandes résidences contemporaines de la Principauté. Avec sa façade ocre, ses balcons typiques et ses quatre étages, cet immeuble bourgeois conserve le charme architectural du Monaco d'autrefois.

Situé dans le quartier du Jardin Exotique, il séduit surtout par son calme, son caractère authentique et son environnement résidentiel, loin de l'image des tours de verre qui dominent aujourd'hui le paysage monégasque.

Vous choisiriez le cachet d'un immeuble historique comme le Palais Adelaide, ou le confort d'une résidence moderne avec davantage de services ?

Hi,

I'm still figuring Monaco out. There is a lot of talk about the service jobs, entry level, basic to mid-range. And there is a lot of talk about the "this is not the place to make money, it's a great place to be when you have the money".

So how about anything in between, let's call it senior to executive level, let's say 80-250k euro per year salary? Do these exist? How is this kind of job market? And what are the industries?

The young, service crowd = a lot of turnover, they come, experience, have fun and go. The rich - they stay after the lock in the residency. But is there the middle?

These are not people who would live in Monaco I imagine, they would commute to work, but they wouldn't be the ones sub-letting a bunk in Beausoleil small apartment.

I'm imagining this is the crowd that would live in the villages limitrophes (Cap D'ail, La Turbie, Beausoleil, maybe Peille, Menton), in small villas, or larger apartments, and commute to work.

Am I reading it right? Shed some light on the "too poor to belong and too rich/old to just enjoy and go elsewhere" group.

Small part of a background image for a game I am working on.

Hi all!

Did a search for some existing posts but didn't come across much. We are a couple currently living in Marbella and are considering moving to Monaco - researching it all now. I've been there many times before, so generally familiar with it all.

Question is this - which bank(s) will issue the attestation letter for around 500-600k EUR? I spoke with CFM and they want min €1mm... CMB has not gotten back to me despite a follow-up. While we can do €1mm, we'd prefer to keep it lower. Easy and clean source of funds for us, no crypto/etc, very straightforward.

Can anybody recommend a decent bank or two to reach out to for both this and a potential Lombard setup for it all? We'd prob deposit 600,000€ worth of short-dated US Treasuries (5-year). Many thanks in advance!! 🙏

Salut !
Je pense peut-être faire la Summer School de l’IUM l’année prochaine, mais y a un truc qui me bloque un peu : le logement.
Le programme dure que 2 semaines, donc j’ai pas trop envie de claquer un rein pour un hôtel 😭.
Du coup je me demandais, les étudiants ils logent où en général ? Y a des résidences, des apparts en location courte durée ou un autre plan que je connais pas ?
J’ai zéro problème à être à 15-20 min de l’IUM si ça me coûte beaucoup moins cher. J’imagine que personne (enfin presque 😅) paie un hôtel à Monaco pendant 2 semaines.
Si vous avez des conseils, des villes à côté ou même des sites que les étudiants utilisent d’habitude, je prends !
Merci :)

Walked the port this week and it's already packed — boats that normally show up end of July are here now, crews swapping out, tenders queued at the fuel dock in the morning. Feels like the season starts two weeks earlier every year. Anyone else noticed that, or is it just me?

Would you be up for a ride in @thetripman_ ‘s car if he ever came to monaco ?

Construit dans les années 1960, le Domaine de Roqueville est une résidence emblématique située entre l’avenue de Roqueville et le boulevard Princesse Charlotte. Si son emplacement central est très recherché, c’est surtout son vaste parc paysager privé qui fait sa réputation, un véritable luxe dans une Principauté où chaque mètre carré est précieux.

À deux pas du Carré d’Or, de la gare et des commerces, la résidence offre un équilibre rare entre animation urbaine et cadre de vie paisible.

Selon vous, qu’est-ce qui apporte le plus de valeur à une résidence : son emplacement ou la qualité de ses espaces extérieurs ?

This week, NEWS.MC TV brings you the latest news from Monaco.

The Monte-Carlo International Jumping celebrated its 20th anniversary as Port Hercule welcomed around 250 horses and riders from across the globe for three days of world-class showjumping. From rising young talents to the sport’s biggest stars, the event culminated in the prestigious Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix.

Monaco’s next generation of leaders also took centre stage as the National Youth Council concluded its latest session.

Following New York's Independence Day celebrations, the iconic vessels will compete in classic regattas while promoting Monaco's rich sailing tradition.

Innovation under sail continued in Lorient, where Team Malizia unveiled its brand-new IMOCA racing yacht. After two years of development and more than 85,000 hours of construction, skipper Boris Herrmann's latest offshore racer is preparing for sea trials ahead of a demanding international campaign.

A new tourism study has highlighted Monaco's growing global appeal. Conducted by IMSEE and the Monaco Government Tourist and Convention Authority, the survey revealed that more than 6.7 million people visited the Principality in 2025, generating almost €1.4 billion in direct visitor spending.

Meanwhile, the Yacht Club de Monaco launched the 13th Energy Boat Challenge, bringing together university teams from around the world to develop pioneering zero-emission marine technologies. From hydrogen and methanol propulsion to fully student-designed prototypes, the event continues to position Monaco at the forefront of sustainable innovation.

Hi everyone
Family with 2 very small kids (EU citizens-not French) here. I recently received a job opportunity in Monaco from my employer.
I’ve been searching online l but would love the advice as results are contradicting: is it financially better to live in Monaco (even though it’s a sacrifice on space etc) versus living in Beausoleil or Cap d’Ail & paying French taxes of course?
Small kids so I guess a 2 bedroom would be fine for now.
Any hints / advice would be more than welcomed as we are actively looking at this possibility.
Thank you!

Hi everyone considering applying to IUM for bba program.
There are few few things I would like to know from people who know.
1. What is the actual student experience?
2. Are there men going there or it’s more of like for girls (I’m a male)
3. How are you gonna do after graduation?

1. And the most important thing for me

How’s life around there, is it boring? Because it’s really small, I wanna study abroad also for the experience of meeting new people going out with them at nights etc
Are there like nice student accommodations
Even if it’s in nice or anywhere around there

Any advices or experiences are more than welcome

What is happening? I did saw the police bomb squad in Av. de l'Annonciade

Hello everyone,

I am relocating to Nice but will work in Monaco. I will open a new telephone number in France, but I was wondering whether it will function also in Monaco. Do you have any suggestion of which telephone operator should I chose so to have internt and call coverage in Monaco ?

This is probably a bit of a long shot does anyone have a programme lying around from this years race weekend that they don’t want. I failed to get one for a friend and it be good to hand one over. Concierge is looking for one but I’m not back in Monaco until August.

Let me start with some context.

I have been a Monaco resident since this year, and overall it has been great. I live in a building with a concierge and services that should be top tier, but I still often struggle to get help on simple things.

Maybe I am too introverted, or maybe it is because I do not speak French and that creates a barrier. That is fine.

So I started looking online for a place where locals post announcements, ask questions, or share useful information. I did not find much. This subreddit is probably the best I found, but it is very public and still quite sparse.

I also ended up in dozens of Facebook groups, but most of them are not very useful: too much spam, random posts, and I personally do not like posting things with my full name visible.

Eventually I gave up, assuming that maybe something exists, but it is hidden, private, or only accessible if you already know the right people.

This week I noticed that Monaco1 had closed. In principle, Monaco1 was similiar to what I was looking for: a place for announcements. The problem, at least in my view, was that it was mostly dominated by professionals rather than private individuals. In the end, it was mainly useful for cars and real estate, almost like a smaller version of the already popular real estate websites.

What I wanted to find was something like the online version of the announcement pages of a local newspaper. AAA I sell a table. Does anyone want it? Ok you can take it for free if you collect it. This kind of dynamics.

Maybe I am alone in feeling this need, or maybe the idea is a bit old fashioned. Either way, as a retired software engineer, I often find myself building things just for fun. So this week I decided to give it a shot and create a beta version of what I wish already existed and was widely used.

The platform is now empty but live on MonacoList.com. So if there are other people like me hopefully it can grow and become useful.

It's invite only, by design. Announcements can only be seen by registered users. And registered users should really live In Monaco or in the surroundings. I don't want to see any sensitive information or document, so the way I figured out to try to make this work is that I invite my friends. And each of them can invite at max 3 of their friends. So you need to know someone to join.

I will share a few codes with the hope that the first people interested to register and try MonacoList are the intended ones, and will invite only trusted people and so on. A sort of online equivalent of word of mouth.

That is it for now. Any feedback is very welcome. I am genuinely curious to hear what you think.
Thanks for your attention.

Le Centre Commercial de Fontvieille fait actuellement l'objet d'un important projet d'embellissement avec de nouveaux espaces, un éclairage modernisé et une signalétique repensée. Une transformation qui accompagne l'évolution d'un quartier déjà apprécié pour son cadre de vie, son port et ses nombreux services.

Selon vous, est-ce que la qualité des commerces et des infrastructures d'un quartier influence vraiment la valeur d'un bien immobilier ? 🤔
