My husband & I stayed here for 9 days, The location in the Old Town of Antibes was magnificent. There are so many great restaurants and shops all within walking distance. The public beach is 2 blocks away. With the Provenchal market a block away, we were able to get the freshest fruits, vegetables, and cheese every morning. The apartment is on the 3rd floor with balconies overlooking a plaza with a fountain.The apartment was exactly as it looks in the photos. On the 1st floor is a creperie/ brasserie with their delightful smell. Very tasty crepes,bruschettas and smoothies. We cooked most of our meals in the very well equipped modern kitchen. From the fruit salads, fresh eggs, just baked croissants in the morning, to the french baquette sandwiches for lunch and fishcakes, fish soup, pastas for dinner... then there was the Bordeaux wine. Often there were musicians playing outside,no need to go out for entertainment. But if you did want to go out at night, there were bars along the marina opened late. The marina was great to stroll around at night with quite a few mega yachts to look at. The master bedroom was spacious with an extremely comfortable tempurpedic mattress. Master bathroom has an awesome roman bathtub. The apartment was immaculate. We did have a rental car as my husband was there for business. We were able to park in a garage under the Post office 3 blocks away for 96 Euros for 2 weeks. The owner and his porperty manager were excellent with their communication. This was our frst experience with renting thru VRBO and it was an excellent choice. We highly recommend this property. It was fabulous!

7 of us stayed in this lovely apartment and had a wonderful time. The apartment overlooks three cafes and is in the center of old town. We could walk everywhere - beach, restaurants, museums, shopping, and just wandering down quaint streets with beautiful flowers. The local open market is minutes away and we took full advantage of this - fresh bread, cheese and fruit every day. The apartment is spacious and has all the amenities you will need. We loved sitting out on the balcony. I would recommend this property to anyone visiting this area of France.

Hello Christian, Just wanted to drop you a line. We are having a fabulous time and have made ourselves at home in your lovely place. We are in love with Antibes all over again and enjoying literally every minute. We even enjoyed our first night when the VERY LOUD punk band was playing right outside at the flower shop. It was louder than I could've possibly imagined. Luckily they wrapped out around 11pm just in time for the Brazilian drummers to start! What a welcoming. Your place is wonderfully equipped and I've enjoyed cooking here. I love to cook when I'm on holiday without the constraints of the kids and our schedules. I think dinner was at 10pm last night. Anyway, just wanted to tell you how happy we are.

Christian, Thank you for letting us use your wonderful apartment. We love Antibes and were able to use the train to visit Nice and Cannes as well. Also thank you for advising us not to rent a car. You were absolutely right, a car is not needed. We left a beach umbrella for the other guests to use. Best wishes, Toni and Patrick, Bonnie and Ken. Orange and Long Beach, California.

Christian, We loved staying in your wonderful apartment! We used it as a base to visit a number of places- Monaco, Eze and St Jean Cap Ferrat. We’ve also eaten our way through Antibes…..and drunk maybe one too many bottles of wine! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Georgina, John, Charlotte and Winston (the Dog) New York N.Y.

We loved this apartment- the light, the location and just the feel! We took a swim at the small beach last night with the moon above. Thank you for sharing this wonderful magical home with us! Susan, David, Mckenzie and Chloe!

Dear Chris, We stayed in your apartment this summer for a short (too short!) five nights. I want to thank you for sharing this incredible retreat with us. We loved everything about Antibes and it will definitely be on our list of places to which we will return! And I have to add that Kim was wonderful! She is warm and charming...and made us feel so at home. She is a gem! Thank you again - and I hope we can return some day soon! Susan

Our family (two girls 12 and 20) enjoyed a week last summer in this wonderful apartment. The location is absolutely perfect! We walked to the beach the first evening and swam in the warm sea! We ate in restaurants just below our balcony, brought the best peaches home from the incredible open market and the warm breezes put us to sleep at night. I would stay here again in a minute.....it was all it was described to be - and more.

Dear Chris, Deborah and I have had an incredibly perfect vacation in Antibes and your wonderful home. Thank you for making it available. It has to be one of the “best” spots in Antibes! Everything was perfect, a great base for excursions, exploring (We went to Nice, Cannes, Monaco, St Tropez, Eze, Villefranche) and best of all Antibes- one of the best towns anywhere! We enjoyed the people, restaurants, the Sea and also Kim was great! Love to come again, be sure to consider visiting us in Boston. Thanks Deborah and Tony

This is a fantastic location within the walls of Old Antibes. The beach is an easy walk and the abundance of restaurants, cafes and shops just outside the doorstep are amazing. The apartment itself is large, clean and very well equipped. Each of the 3 bedrooms had separate air conditioners including one in the main living area which we found was not necessary because of the balcony. The photo's and descriptions on the website are quite accurate. It is with mixed feelings that I am giving this recommendation as I would like to keep this gem all to myself. I highly recommend this location and have every intention of going back again this coming year once our plans are finalized. Please feel free to call me for further comments.
