Make holiday rental accommodation or an apartment in Nice, France your home away from home

Everyone has heard of Nice, due to its reputation from the 1960’s, 70’s and 80’s as the ultimate holiday destination for the jet set. Although much of the hype surrounding Nice has gone, it is still a favourite, stylish holiday destination along France’s most beautiful coast, the Cote d’Azur Riviera.

Things to do in Nice, France

The mini-train which leaves from the seafront is a perfect way to get your bearings when you first arrive at your holiday rental accommodation in Nice. It takes you through some of the most colourful and lavish districts of the city and to regions which you almost certainly would not have discovered on your first visit to Nice otherwise.

Nice is a highly cultural city, with a great range of museums and galleries to investigate. From accommodation in Nice, you can see many of the most esteemed museums in the south of France in just a couple of days. The modern art museum, Musee des Beaux-Arts and Villa Arson are essential attractions for art lovers staying in a Nice villa rental. The picturesque old town makes essential viewing from a Nice apartment too. The Vieille Ville’s architecture is a great mix of Italian, Genoese and French architecture, and the narrow facades hide some of the best kept, and best priced restaurants in the region.

Nice captures all that is great about France in a single, glamorous city; enchanting markets selling fine local produce, exquisite architecture, glorious restaurants, designer boutiques and a quiet yet top class pebble beach.

Sunbathers will love the white pebble beaches lapped gently by the azure waters of the Mediterranean which give the coastline its name. The blissfully warm waters are a real treat to swim in, and the pebbles on the beach mean that you do not traipse sand through your Nice holiday rental upon your return!

Villefranche-sur-Mer, which lies further along the coast towards Monaco, is a lovely old town, nestled between the mountains and the glorious beaches of the Cote d’Azur. The Cannes Film Festival brings a huge number of visitors to this area of the south of France, but the city has far more to offer than simply a star studded festival in May. The beaches, restaurants and shopping in Cannes is worthy of renting holiday accommodation at any time of the year.
