First class independent holiday on the Riviera

Having returned from a sunny holiday on the French Riviera I wanted to share my experiences about this fabulous apartment in Cagnes-sur-Mer! The town, as the name suggests, is right on the warm Mediterranean coast, with fragrant vegetation and a real French charm. The gated residence, in which this bright, luxurious 2 bedroom flat is to be found, is only a stone` s throw away from the well-kept pebbly beach, literally about a minute walk. The grounds are meticulously looked after, there` s an inviting swimming pool with a deck in the Summer season, plus you can park your car in the underground garage…impressive start! The lift will take you and the luggage right to the doorstep, no need to fiddle with the heavy stuff on the stairs. The apartment is bright, full of natural light, comes with a simply elegant décor, a very clean, tastefully furnished base for the holiday. The spacious living room has an open plan, fully equipped kitchen, and is directly connected to a large (!) terrace facing south west, with wooden seating and a big table – this is a perfect spot for sunbathing or having delicious meals with excellent French wines! There are two bedrooms, the bigger one has a beautiful four poster double bed, the other` s slightly smaller (still absolutely suitable for even two adults) with two comfy single beds. Both have an exit to the second terrace. The bathroom is separated from the toilet, which is definitely a clever solution in my view, very well sized indeed. One of the best qualities of the flat is that it` s perfect for all sorts of holidaymakers: I was lucky enough to spend quality times with friends there, it was a fantastic place to stay for 4 adults. It is however also provides the best solution for a family with kids, or for a couple looking for a stylish break. The area is awesome: you can go jogging on the seaside promenade, the town is abundant with lovely restaurants, bars and in case you can get your fresh croissants every morning from around the corner! Nice, Monte Carlo, Antibes, Cannes, St Tropez or the picturesque villages of Provence – all are within very easy reach by car!!!
All in all, this is a first class holiday experience, in a safe environment. Karen, the owner gave us full directions, the whole booking process and the communication was quick, efficient and very helpful. We will definitely return, merci beaucoup!
