The villa was commissioned by French archaeologist Théodore Reinach, who was inspired by Greek culture throughout his career. Upon retiring to Beaulieu-sur-Mer, he had this magnificent villa constructed to honor Classical Greece. It features a design reflective of ancient residences, including a porter's lodge, a central patio with a portico, a 'triklinion' dining room, and a library.

Inside, visitors will find a gallery of antiques with life-size replicas of renowned Greek sculptures like the Apollo Belvedere and Venus de Milo. Significant rooms include the Andron, designated for men, and the Oikos, for family gatherings, alongside Reinach's bedroom, influenced by Erotes.
