Antibes holiday apartment: Antibes Juan les Pins

In terms of location, the apartment is 5-10 minutes from the old town of Antibes if you're walking along the seafron or through the streets. It's a similar distance if walking through the streets. Proximity to the train station is excellent, it being 1 minute away! There are some restaurants and bars around the apartment, but we tended to eat in the old town as we preferred the atmosphere there. There is a reasonable supermarket (Casino) 5 minutes away, but if you want a bigger supermarket (another Casino), you do need to drive there - it's about 10-15 minutes in the car.

The apartment was perfect for 2 people; any more and it would start to become a little tight for space. There are 2 bunk beds that fold down but I would think they were more appropriate for children rather than adults. The apartment was in immmaculate condition: the little galley kitchen had everything you could need, including a microwave. The living room had a TV & sound system, as well as a laptop with internet access - perfect. The bathroom even had a washing machine if you needed it. Our favourite part was the balcony which overlooked the port - we had breakfasts and dinners there.

The owner was very helpful: he made sure to meet us and show us around despite our late arrival. If there were any problems (we couldn't find a bottle opener), he attended to it promptly. He would check in regularly to make sure all was ok with the apartment, and that we were happy.

There was some confusion and lack of clarity on the administrative side of things at the end of the stay, but both parties were able to resolve the issue in a friendly manner.

Overall, I would recommend this property without a doubt - it's a real find, and made more so by the attentiveness and concern of the owner.

A very good appartment with a cracking veiw over the marina. The location is excellent with a five minute walk to the centre of the old town and beach. Train and bus links are also at your doorstep for trips further afield.
The accomodation is clean, modern and comfortable with a good air conditioning system and a balcony to have a glass of wine and enjoy the veiw.
The service was very good from start to finish, with help available whenever you need it.
The free telephone service as well as the laptop and internet service was a godsend to keep our teenage daughter in touch with her friends.
Overall we thought the appartment is very good quality.

Our stay was fantistic in June 2009. The location is just near the train station, which makes for easy travel along the coast. Sten even met us and helped carry the luggage. The apartment is actually even better than the photos on-line indicate. It has a great view, is near many restaurants, quiet, and plenty of space. We really enjoyed out visit and recommend this apartment to any travelers.
