Beachfront Bliss studio apartment, truly beachfront, panoramic views

Beachfront Bliss is a spacious studio apartment at the beach of Villefranche sur Mer. There are very few apartments truly at the beach. Whether sitting at the dining table, the sofa, or laying in bed, you feel as though the sea is at your feet. Although a studio, the apartment is designed so that the bed, a real bed from a bed store, easily disappears when not in use and the room becomes a lovely apartment. Two great lounging areas exist: a sofa for 2 with a coffee table and view of the sea, or the dining table for 2 (or 4) with footstools that enable you to slip back into the chair for relaxing in front of the huge picture window. There is a great little kitchen, very well designed with a stove top, oven for microwave, grilling and conventional oven cooking, a large half-sized refrigerator, granite countertops and plenty of storage. The bathroom has a great stall shower and lovely window with a view to the garden. There is plenty of clothes storage and a desk with wireless DSL.

About Villefranche sur Mer

Great beach, fabulous swimming, great walks, exquisite scenery, wonderful restaurants, and lots to explore in our little triangle of beauty (Villefranche, Beaulieu, Cap Ferrat). Take a walk around the old town, around the water's edge walk of the citadel to the Port de la Darse, where boats have and continue to be built for over 500 years. Walk up to the Moyenne Corniche and follow the path up to Mont Boron to Fort Alban and come down the hillside back into Villefranche. Or take one of the prettiest walks in the world, from your doorstep in Villefranche, around the water's edge of Cap Ferrat -- a great day trip with a picnic and swim along the way. Or enjoy the SANDY beach of Villefranche and the wonderful swimming, or linger over a great lunch in one of the seaside restaurants or beach restaurants with a bottle of chilled rose wine. Or walk to Villa Keryolos or Villa Rothschild and take in these exquisite beauties. There is so much to do in our little triangle.

Things to do in the area

But should you get bored with our little triangle, you can hop the train and head to Cannes or Antibes or take the bus to Nice. Cannes is great for shopping, as is Nice. Antibes is great to explore, have lunch, tour the marina and look at all the amazing yachts. Or take the train or bus to Monaco or Menton -- both fabulous in different ways. In Monaco, we love the Oceanographic Institute, exploring the old town, visiting the castle, exploring the Exotic garden and it's incredible grotto (a must for kids -- but adults will also have fun), the casino area and its gardens, the gorgeous Japanese garden and just 'hanging out' in Monaco -- it's such a scene! And then there is lovely Menton -- a fabulous old town, a lovely seaside. And then of course there is old Nice, the Promenade des Anglais and the several days you could spend exploring there. And we haven't even touched on St. Paul de Vence, Grasse, Vence, Eze or some of the other fabulous places within 30 min or less of here.

And there is more.....

If you like to golf, there are some great golf courses in Monaco (unbelievable view over the Med) or Mougins, Cannes, and around. There is scuba diving, sailing, cycling (Lance Armstrong has called this place home -- still hangs out here), and great great walking. St. Tropez, the Var, Gorges du Verdon, Vallee du Roya, Italy, Corsica, Provence -- it is all close by yet you will always love coming back to Villefranche from wherever you visit because it is calm, embracing, nourishing -- a village with a great lifestyle. This is a very kid friendly place but also a great place to be if you are a romantic couple just wanting to hang out or a retired couple wanting to experience living here for a while. Even as an expatriate you can integrate here quickly as there are a lot of expats here. And the French also enjoy mingling with the expat community.
