Travelers Ring in the New Year With Flavor and Flair at Luxury Hotel's Antibes Restaurant

JUAN LES PINS, FRANCE--(Marketwired - Nov 20, 2014) - New Year's Eve may be known as a time to cut loose and celebrate, but its real value is in symbolizing the way people want to live for the next year. And the AC Hotel Ambassadeur Antibes - Juan les Pins is making sure its guests are savoring the good life. To that end, its celebrated Fushi restaurant is offering a sumptuous, four-course menu on the holiday, which promises to serve as an auspicious start to everyone's 2015.

The French Riviera restaurant has earned a reputation for creative Mediterranean cuisine, and its New Year's Eve menu lives up to the acclaim. Guests will begin the meal much like a vacation in Antibes: with sea and sunshine. Ginger-infused scallops served in a coconut-lemongrass sauce nod to the hotel's enviable geography while whetting guests' appetites for the main course.

Proving why Fushi is one of the most popular restaurants in Juan les Pins, the entrée options for New Year's Eve encompass both innovation and flavor. Guests may choose from squid supreme in which the legs are cooked tandoori-style (served with vegetables and a grand-veneur sauce), or turbot prepared with a citrus crust and served with glazed vegetables and a chickpea-flour panisse, which is a staple dish in the South of France.

Following the main course, guests will enjoy Brie de Meaux, served hot and cold. Dessert ends things on a sweet note with a barley-sugar pyramid, frozen chestnut "treasure" and melting chocolate.

While guests feast on this culinary adventure, live entertainment will create a festive air, and one complimentary glass of Champagne per person will put everyone in a celebratory mood. And for those who want to keep the joie de vivre going, the luxury Antibes hotel is offering an incentive to stay on after dinner. Its latest package offers 500 bonus Marriott Rewards points to Marriott Rewards members who stay three nights or longer between December 26, 2014 and January 31, 2015.

With room rates ranging between EUR 149 and EUR 169 per night during this window, there's never been a better time for visitors to discover why the property is among the finest hotels in Juan les Pins. Its private beach, sophisticated contemporary décor and well-appointed guest rooms represent all the style and understated elegance of the location while affording guests a luxurious escape.
