Simply Perfect

Review Submitted: July 6, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Villa Meon or Villa Dwelling comes no where near the description that should be used for this idyllic, sanctuary of sophisticated luxury nestled into the hills above Cannes. Cannes sur Mer is only ten minutes by car and only a twenty minute drive to the bustling squares, beautiful fountains and excellent restaurants of Vence.

Although we only stayed a week the peace and tranquillity of this villa and it’s setting made it hard to leave and even harder to forget. A most memorable holiday and one I intend to re-live again!

Villa Meon - home away from home

Review Submitted: August 21, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
We stayed a week at Villa Meon, We were a family of 4, two boys aged 9 and 13. The pool kept them amused while the adults could sit back each late afternoon with a wine and relax. Very central to Nice and the coast. Villa was clean and tidy with a well appointed kitchen.

Beautiful views and gorgeous villa

Review Submitted: June 4, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
This villa is as good as it looks! 3 very good sized bedrooms and a lovely living area. The kitchen even has a dishwasher - so it really is a holiday! The best bit is definitely being able to enjoy a BBQ looking at the pool and the beautiful valley and hills.
Lots of space for a group or family. Sadly it was too hot for the jacuzzi baths but perfect for a romantic getaway.
The location is great; we managed to visit St Tropez, Monaco Grand Prix and Col de la Bonnette (the highest road in Europe for mountain lovers!).

Paradise holiday

Review Submitted: May 3, 2011 Date of Stay: April 2011
Had a fantastic holiday in Villa Meon,house is furnished beautifully and cosy.Lot's of books and dvd's to entertain if u get bored sitting outside (we didn't :) Many gorgeus places to visit nearby.Oven was not working,but we could make pizza and lasagna in the pizza oven outside.Area managers service was really helpful and good!

Would not recommend this house /area to families with very small children (under 3), because there was no fence in the pool and the yard was in several levels - for bigger kids a paradise to run around and swim! Would love to come back some day!

Villa Meon

Review Submitted: September 28, 2010 Date of Stay: September 2010
The Property was "almost" exactly as described in the listing, the only exception being the so called "short walk" to the village, this was not what we would have described as a short walk at all.

There is a definate lack of restaurants, of any quality, in the immediate area and only one or two within walking distance, and one of those is more a cafe type establishment

This being said the property was exactly what we wanted and expected. tastefully decorated and furnished, and extremely peaceful, whilst not creating the feeling of isolation, having neighbors close at hand.

Everything in full working order, and proved to be an ideal home from home, we felt relaxed, safe and well rested after our stay. The care taken to detail within the property is indeed commenable to the owners, and having paid in full many weeks prior to our stay, we were always answered on any questions we had very promptly, and felt
( justifiably ) very confident in the way we were treated.

Its an ideal location being within easy reach of so many of the sights,villages and indeed cities this area has to offer.

tHe best recommedation is that we will be booking again for next year, I need say no more, value for money for such "class"

Please take care when driving in this area, as the locals tend to be "aggresive" in road terms, and I personally felt pressured on what are narrow twisty turning roads, this limits the drivers ability to take in the stunning views having to give 101% CONCENTRATION TO ROAD SAFETY
