Beautiful Villa on the French Riviera near Saint Raphael! In a residential area of St. Aygulf, with a 130 degree, panoramic view of the sea to the east over the Bay of Saint Raphael and up to Dramont Cape, in a 1200 m2 land. The swimming pool is open from June to September.
The resort of St. Aygulf is shaded by pines, cork and holm oaks, from the beach of fine sand, ringed with rocks, there is an attractive view of Frejus Bay and Les Issambres. St. Aygulf is a short distance from many medieval villages and historic sites such as Roquebrune-sur-Argens, Fayence, and Seillans.
St. Aygulf is five kilometers away from Frejus, a village founded by Julius Caesar in 49 B.C. Octavian made it an important naval base where he built the galleys which won the battle of Actium against Cleopatra and Antony. St. Aygulf abuts on St. Raphael, another daughter of Rome.
The large seafront of St. Raphael shows great activity stimulated by the café and shops. There are boat trips from St. Raphael to St. Tropez, Port-Cros, Iles de Lerins. Valescure is an aristocratic extension of St. Raphael, reputed for its golf in a tranquil and mild climate.
Cannes, Mougins and Valauris are about 40 kilometers away from St. Aygulf, by highway A8-E30. The magnificent Corniche de l'Esterel links up St. Raphael and Cannes. It looks out over a bea utiful view with the blood-red porphyry rocks against the cobalt blue of the sea ( French Riviera, Michelin Tourist Guide).

Review Submitted: 10/07/11
The villa that we rented for a week was a great house for eight people. The description and the pictures that are posted on the site are accurate. The house also has a pool which is a great addition to help you cool off because the house is not equipped with AC or fans to cool the night air. The location is very quiet which helps when the windows are open at night. This house is in a residential area with families so it is not the house to rent if you are looking for a late night party house with children that are loud. The location is not great for walking to many restaurants or the beach. You will need a car to get anywhere. You will also need to bring all of the items needed to run the house there is nothing that is included in this house for your stay. The only thing included is dishes and cooking items. So stock up. The house also does not have any beach items so coming from far away you will need to purchase items once you get there or bring it with you. Now I understand why the renter usually rents out for more then just a week. I could see staying in this house for longer then a week because all of the items that you need to purchase before you can live in it. The house was well maintained and the renter responded to our needs very promptly. I would recommend this house to families that wanted to stay somewhere for a period of time but not during the summer months due to the fact that there was not AC.

Owner response: "The house is actually not equipped with AC as many villas on the French Riviera as seen on those advertized on VRBO " Owner comment : It is clearly advertized on my VRBO page that there is no Air Conditioning. "You will also need to bring all of the items needed to run the house there is nothing that is included in this house for your stay. The only thing included is dishes and cooking items." Owner comment : This is not accurate. Everything listed in "Rental Feature & Amenities" is actually available in the villa : In particular : refrigerator, freezer, microwave, electric furnace, dishwasher; washer-dryer.
Recommended for:Sightseeing, families with teenagers.
