Argentinian steak, the picana is the only thing to order here. Very unassuming restaurant, don't be put off by the decor. A favourite with locals and it won't break the bank.

Interiors by Philippe Staerk, it feels like being out at sea. Great for afternoon and evening drinks on the terrace and romantic dinners. Ask for a table by the water.

Amazing steak, not one for veggies. Great atmosphere and interiors. Dinner is pricey, the lunch menu is excellent value and includes a glass of wine.

Live music for lunch on a sunday, Anjuna makes you feel like you're in the Caribbean! A bit of a celeb hangout, it's not unusual to see Bono on the drums here (he has a house on the same beach) and come 6pm, everyone is dancing on the tables! Sunday lunch is the best day for fun and evenings for a more romantic time.

Home to the ruling house of Grimaldi since 1297, the palace lies on top of the rock (le rocher) in Monaco. At 11.55am everyday, the changing of the guard happens and is well worth a look for the fanfare and pagentry. The old town of Monaco lies up here too and its narrow streets are very charming to stroll around. Lots of steps up to the rock though, wear comfy shoes!

An institution in Monaco, it is pretty much full every night of the week and you can expect to see anyone from a prominent politician to a rap star in here. Dinner is only okay, it's more about being seen, but the bar area and dancefloor are great fun. If you splurge on a table, the chairs are for dancing on!

The American bar in the Hotel de Paris is a must for a pre or post dinner drink. After 7pm there is always a live band and the expensive drinks are worth it for the free nibbles that accompany them. The hot barbajuans (a Monaco speciality) are truly amazing. Allow at least an hour for a pre-dinner drink to soak up the atmosphere.

Parks & Nature
Not easy to get to - it's about a 30 minute walk from the car park at the beach below, but the walk is really amazing, not to mention the beach when you get to it.
