  • After Paris, we spent ten days in Menton at the Mona Lisa.It is very well located in a lovely town which we preferred over the crowds and glitz of Nice and Monaco.For us,the weather during the first half of October was close to perfect,being in the low to mid 70's F.Some good restaurants and a very interesting market.A lovely promenade along the coast.Menton,and the Mona Lisa,being so close to the Italian border,are ideal as a home base for touring.

  • In June 2009 after traveling around Europe for 5 weeks, my husband and I were happy to put our feet up, relax & experience a real holiday in Menton. The apartment was a home away from home. Everything we wanted was available and not having to do any more hand washing was bliss! The chance to stay at home in the evening, prepare a meal from local products and sit on the balcony with a bottle of local wine was most enjoyable. However, when we did choose to eat out, there was a wide selection of excellent restaurants close by. We spent our time relaxing on the beach chairs opposite and taking day trips on the train. Menton is ideally situated on the coast to do short trips to Monaco, Monte Carlo, Canes or other towns and villages. Wandering around the old town was also joy. The apartment is in a great location: in a quiet residential area, opposite the best beach, a short stroll to the supermarket and train station and a short bus ride or walk to town. We have already given Tom and Marilyn’s contact details to some of our friends!

  • We had a week in the apartment in September. We have visited Nice dozens of times but never got as far as Menton until now. It was a lovely place, very French with a dash of Italian flavouring (lovely gelati). We needed a rest in a beautiful place and that is what we got. The apartment is welcoming and ideally situated. It was immaculate when we arrived which is always a relief. Pascall was helpful and charming. We hope to return.

  • Great location, just across the best beaches in town, as well as a variety of good restaurants boarding the beaches. Very close to several grocery stores, and just a short walk away from a splendid promenade (perfect for evening strolls). Marilyn and Tom have managed to furnish their apartment with everything a couple would need for a great holiday on the picturesque French Riviera, including air conditioning (which is very rare in that part of the world).

  • The best thing we can say about the condo is "where ever we went, when we came back it felt like home." Everything you read in the add is absoultley true, from location to comfort. We would highly reccommend this unit as the perfect vacation place. Frank and Sue

  • Hi Marilyn & Tom, What an absolutely lovely time we had at your condo in Menton for 2 weeks. This was our first trip to Europe and we were pleasantly surprised at the beautiful tropical area. Your suggestions on restaurants, and how to get around were most helpful to us. We just loved the wonderful lounges on the balcony for enjoying a glass of French wine after walking our feet off all day. Everything we needed was right at our fingertips in your condo and the Marche U right across the street for groceries was most convenient. I loved your little shopping cart. It came in so handy for carrying water, and of course bottles of wine. We had some wonderful wines in France. We will recommend your place to our friends & family. You both were so pleasant to deal with & Pascal was a bonus too. Patricia & Bob Thiessen

  • Menton is very lovely. We especially enjoyed the location of the apartment to the old town centre. Very easy walking distance to restanrants and shops. Great for day tripping to Ventimiglia, Nice, Eze, and Monaco. Marilyn and Tom are the nicest people and so helpful with any questions that we came up with. We would highly recommend this wonderful apartment!

  • My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time in Menton. The town is quaint and beautiful, and just a short ride from Monaco and Italy. The apartment is conveniently located near the beach and just a short walk to the train and market. It has all of the comforts of home, is clean and in excellent condition. We can't wait to take our next trip back!

  • A friend from Paris and I had the good fortune to visit Menton for a week beginning May 23, 2006. Mona Lisa is a beautiful building situtated on the corner across the street from the Mediteranean. The building as well as the apartment was impecably clean and well maintained. There are too many subtle little nicities to mention but lets just say we were very comfortable and felt very at home. Obviously, a lot of thought goes into making sure that everything you might need is available. Grocery, markets, bus service and old town are right at your doorstep within a couple blocks of a beautiful walk. Monaco, Vence, St. Paul and Gorbio are all very close by via public transport.
