BookThe Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Alpes-Maritimes region
From Cannes to Nice going through Antibes and Menton all the way to the Italian Border the Cote d'Azur is one not only of beauty but prestige. The coastline is spotted with turn of the century mansions and modern luxury homes.
During the Summer months when the Cote D'Azur is particularly lively one can find sunbathers on the beaches of sand or pebbles and strollers leisurely walking along the Croisette in Cannes or the Promenade des Anglais in Nice.
Why does the French Riviera remain so popular with connoisseurs of the good things in life?!
Some come for the grandeur of the rugged coast. Others favour the art treasures , the ancient ruins and the sleepy villages tucked away in the hills. Many more come simply for the glamour of the seaside resorts. The charms of the Riviera are so varied that most visitors are at a loss to know where to start. First-time visitors soon fall under the region's spell while those who already know it remain enchanted, returning year after year!
The Antibes / East Antibes area
Antibes-Juan les Pins is one of the most well known resorts on the Cote D'Azur located between Nice (20km)and Cannes (12km). Antibes manages to be a historic town and eventful town and also an innovating town easily mixing these multiple facets.
The beauty remains in the old town (Vieux Ville) with the Ramparts along the sea and the long arched protective wall behind which there are plenty of little charming streets for exploring, filled with restaurants, street cafes galleries, museums and lots of quaint little shops and gift shops. Antibes comes alive in the Summer Months with all the restaurants opening out on to their terrasse allowing dining al fresco where you can enjoy the street entertainers and watch the world go by. Browse around the various stalls on display with all their hand made wares and you can be sure to pick up some wonderful gifts and souvenirs to bring home.
Antibes has the largest private marina in Europe and is home to the most luxurious super yachts of the world.
Roman Abromavich's Ecstasea is often moored here!

We spend 12 days in the apartment with our 2-years old son in March 2012. Everything was as advertised and we had a real great time. We could recommend this location to everyone. |
![]() 20 Sep 2011 |
Wonderfully clean light and spacious and well equipped, more than enough room for 2 for a week, could easily sleep 4 without feeling on top of each other. Gets the morning and evening sun on terrace and small garden that runs around the outside of property. Had the pool all to ourselves all week which was fantastic and probably isnt a rarity as is only shared by 12 apartments. Lovely little Boulangerie just down the road towards La Fontonne (if coming from Nice aorport take the 200 bus from the airport as it only costs €1 per person and stops in La Fontonne, a 5 min walk) and the usual array of little shops, bars, pharmacies etc. Heading the other way into town takes a little longer but is a nice stroll and offers you a nice view of the harbour and all the super yachts. Vieil Antibes itself has lots to offer, a nice small sandy beach and lots of little restaurants on pretty little side streets. Apartment is well situated to take a day trip into Italy (went to Sanremo, took 1hr and a half, stopped off in Monaco on return, excellent relaxed day trip) Loved the weather although the bed could have been a little longer (i'm 5"11). The agent was also incredibly pleasant and went out of his way to be flexible towards us. |
