Excellent location and spaceous apartment
Review Submitted: December 15, 2011
Date of Stay: November 2011
This was our first time to Nice and Cannes – and our visit and each of the apartments were absolutely wonderful – we split our visit between this owner’s Nice and Cannes apartments. In Nice, we started each morning with breakfast on the balcony and ended each day with aperitif in the same location: with gorgeous views of the beach, Mediterranean sea and Promenade des Anglais. We easily took day trips to Eze, Cannes and Monte Carlo. And mastered the bus system to visit Vieux Ville, Cours Saleya, Phoenix Parc, Le Musee Messena, Matisse, Chagall and des Beaux Arts. We shopped at the local vegetable and fish markets and cooked in, and when we wanted to eat out there were several excellent options within walking distance, or via bus.
In Cannes, the apartment was equally wonderful and accessible to transportation, the beach/ Promenade de la Croisette, restaurants and phenomenal shopping. Great for when the purchases started to accumulate – and required a quick drop off back at the apartment! Again, we easily planned day trips to Ventimiglia (Italy) and Monte Carlo and our return trip to Paris. We also loved shopping at the local flea/brocante market.
Both caretakers were friendly, informative and helpful.
Thank you for the option of staying in both of your lovely homes. Best wishes.

Owner's Response: Hi Susan,
I am so glad that you had a great time When we as owners visit the Cote d'azur we always split our time between Nice and Cannes. That is the beauty of owning. For some reason I hadn't thought that others might like that same opportunity. While Cannes rents higher usually I offer it for the same price as Nice when guests chose this option. I added this "offer" to our information that I send out with requests and you were one of the first ones to get it and you immediately decided to take advantage of it. I was so happy you decided to do it as I think it is the best of the French Riviera. I hope others think of this option and thank you for the kind review.
