Rent an apartment in Monte-Carlo to live in the Principality's most glamorous quarter. Monte-Carlo is the name given to one of four communes in the Principality of Monaco where many of our premier Monaco real estate listings can be found. Monte-Carlo apartments for rent are amongst the most sought-after of all Monaco rentals, due to the prestigious nature of the area. Monte-Carlo includes the famous Monte-Carlo Casino and Hotel de Paris among other landmarks. It also contains the largest concentration of luxury boutiques in an area which is known as La Carré d’Or, or Golden Square.
There is often confusion over the name ‘Monte-Carlo’ with many wrongly assuming that the terms refers to the Principality of Monaco as a whole, and not just one of the four communes, namely Monte-Carlo, Fontvieille, La Condamine and Monaco-Ville. At La Costa Properties Monaco we have a large selection of apartments in Monte Carlo for sale and rent, including studio rentals and multiple-room properties for families. Our team of consultants are on hand to offer you advice and information on this extremely sought-after rental district of Monaco.
Highlights of Monte-Carlo
As previously mentioned, Monte-Carlo is the area in which many of the Principality’s most famous landmarks are situated. Residents living in Monte-Carlo rentals are within an easy walking distant of the world-renowned Casino Square where they can enjoy a coffee at the Cafe de Paris, or an evening aperitif at the Hotel de Paris. The Casino de Monte-Carlo, established in 1863, takes pride of place on the square and is a magnet for visitors to Monaco. Many of the Principality of Monaco’s most luxurious boutiques such as Dior, Louis Vuitton and Cartier are also located in Monte-Carlo, in the glamorous neighbourhood labelled the Carré d’Or. Our selection of Monte Carlo apartments for rent are close by a number of supermarkets for everyday shopping, such as Carrefour City, in rue Genets, and Marché U, on boulevard Princesse Charlotte.
