We've returned after a 2 week holiday in early June and were very impressed by this beautiful property that's set in its own garden with a pool and also has a secure gated entrance. It looks exactly as it does in the photos - you won't be disappointed. We were 6 adults with two young children, aged 3 and 4 and the large airy living area, the neat, well equipped bedrooms, ample bathrooms and laundry room served us well. We spent our evenings sitting around the huge table in the outside kitchen but beware, so did the mosquitoes!
The owners were very helpful and friendly and were at hand to help if needed. They showed us around the property, explaining how everything worked and gave us maps and some local recommendations. It was a privilege to be able to stay in their family home and I long to be back there now again!
The property is under 10 minutes walk (we had a double buggy and the narrow pavements on the main road were a bit tricky) from Antibes train station where there are around 2 trains every hour to Nice and towards Monaco and Italy as well as to the west, towards Cannes. The picturesque marina is a further 5 minute walk and the old town of Antibes, from the house I'd say is a 15 - 20 minute walk.
It's a great location that has everything to offer - the tranquility of lying around the pool, a shop and boulangerie that's within a stone's throw away and some nearby bars. There's also an under pass that takes you to the nearest beach and if ever you get bored, you can stroll into town for some shopping and a meal.
The downsides, and they're minor were the fact that we were all bitten by mosquitoes and ants seemed to like the kitchen! The fact that there was no air conditioning or ceiling fans could make it difficult to sleep at night but I'm really being picky now.
It was glorious. We'll definitely be back for more. Thank you Monsieur et Madame Massena!
