An excellent spot in old Antibes
My wife and I very much enjoyed our stay in the Pimm's flat during the last two weeks of September. The balcony overlooking a pedestrian street was a great perspective for people-watching and relaxing. The flat was well furnished and comfortable, and the owner provided excellent guidance to its facilities and local attractions. Two patisseries within a few steps and an *excellent* charcuterie just down the street were a real plus, as was the full supermarket two short blocks away. For those with a car (as I had, to travel to a work assignment), the underground parking garage 200m. away, with weekly ticket available, solved all parking problems.
The location, close to the restaurants, sidewalk cafes, and little shops of the old city, was excellent, as within 5 minutes we could walk to the seafront promenade, the Picasso museum, the beach, and readily take longer strolls (or jogs) out on the Cap d'Antibes. The fully equipped kitchen allowed us to make better meals, using fresh produce, pasta and meats from the local shops, than we could have found in many restaurants! Being able to wash clothes in the flat was also very helpful at a warm time of year.
We would certainly recommend the property to any of our friends. The only negative feature was the very bright street lamp outside the bedroom window: room-darkening shades would be a nice addition. But overall we'd give the flat 5 stars.
