Villeneuve-Loubet (French pronunciation: [vilnœv lubɛ]; Occitan: Vilanuòva e Lo Lobet; Italian: Villanova Lobetto) is a commune in the Alpes-Maritimes department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in Southeastern France. It lies between Cagnes-sur-Mer and Antibes, at the mouth of the river Loup, ten kilometres west of central Nice.
