A Legacy Shaped Across the World’s Most Coveted Destinations

OUR SERVICES

Christophe’s professional journey spans the most luxurious regions on the planet, with deep expertise in the French Riviera and Saint Barthélemy. These destinations—renowned for their exclusivity and elegance—have shaped his refined approach to estate service, design coordination, and ultra-private client relations.

One of Christophe’s most iconic achievements is the acquisition and complete renaissance of the legendary Château de la Croix des Gardes in Cannes—a historic neoclassical estate perched above the French Riviera. Representing the buyer, Christophe negotiated the sale and led an extraordinary four-year transformation, coordinating over 1,000 craftsmen and 40+ global firms. The estate, once the backdrop of Hitchcock’s To Catch a Thief, was meticulously restored under his leadership and is now one of the Riviera’s crown jewels.

Following his work in Cannes, Christophe expanded operations to Saint Barthélemy, where he brought the same level of rigor and sophistication to managing luxury villas, yachts, and private aviation logistics. As CEO of Exclusive Management Services (E.M.S.), he delivered world-class lifestyle, concierge, and event services to an elite international clientele—including political leaders, artists, and global tastemakers.
