We were greeted by Marie and were made to feel right at home. The property has been wonderfully renovated and has been carefully decorated with her artistic flair. Marie provides lots of little extras - beach towels, shopping cart etc that go a long way to making the stay a true delight. I would be more than happy to recommend this bnb and would definitely stay here again if in the area.

The rating 10/10 is absolutely correct: We stayed the third time in this nice house and enjoyed it.Marie is a lovely person and quite focused on the well-beeing of guests. The quality of the house is excellent, the surrounding is quite silent (except the birds) and you are within minutes in the small city with food markets, icecream-shops, whatever you want.Not to forget the beach!

My daughter and I had a fabulous stay at Atypical fisherman's house. Marie is a wonderful hostess and the location to the beach, grocery store, restaurants, and shopping is only a block away. The town of Cagnes Sur Mer is adorable and has the perfect "small village in the French Riveria" feel we were looking for. We mostly used Uber to get to Nice and Eze, but the train is within a walkable distance and the airport is close by. The house is super clean and organized. Marie has everything you could possibly need. We would definitely return and can't wait to plan our next trip!

Absolutely fantastic! Cannot praise Marie’s house enough. We stay in many rental houses and this is the best! Spotlessly clean, excellent linens and towels, comfy beds, more equipment than you could ever need, quiet, beautifully furnished, so near to the shops and the beach. It’s absolutely perfect. And Marie is a truly lovely lady. If you are visiting this area you must stay here!

One of the best places in the Nice area

Marie is a wonderful host. Our plane arrived late and it was dark and raining, but she was there to meet us as soon as we walked to our place. Very comfortable bed, good shower and everything you need. We really loved the area. Bakery, markets, restaurants, and the beach within a block or two. A bus stop is close so you can easily get to central Nice.

Hidden gem by the sea.

My husband and I were on our first trip to Europe and had the pleasure of renting Jaques and Marie's cottage. It was beautifully decorated with a fully equipped kitchen including homemade preserves and coffee. Martini and Jaques were very welcoming but not intrusive. The location was perfect - two blocks from the beach and plenty of restaurants close by.

Sublime apartment in Cagnes Sur Mer near Nice

This accommodation is one of the best we have stayed in along the Cote d’Azure. It has everything and more! So many extras that made our stay perfect. Thank you Marie, your home is perfect for a relaxing getaway and easily accommodated 3 adults travelling together. Cagnes Sur Mer is beautiful and so close to Nice. Our accommodation was one street back from the beach, amazing. And so tastefully renovated.

Beautiful stay!

We were absolutely thrilled with this visit and that sense got stronger as the days went on. Our hosts welcomed us and gave us a thorough walk through of the cottage before leaving us and making clear they were available any time should we have questions (which was true). The community is an absolute gem of a village and the bakery around the corner was open each morning at 6am with a delicious variety of pastries and breads. The cottage is as advertised and well worth a stay.

Peaceful and relaxing getaway

When I saw this listing I knew immediately that this was the place I wanted to stay, and my instincts were correct. The house is even more charming than in the pictures and the location is ideal. It’s on a quiet street, but close to every convenience. There are restaurants, shops of all sorts, including a nice grocery store, within walking distance. And both the beach and train station are just minutes away. Marie is a wonderful hostess and she was available any time we had questions. The stay was perfect and I hope to return again.

Fantastic Spot in Beautiful Village

We loved this place! Blocks from the beach, with a walk on a lovely street with cafes and small shops. Marie and Jean were wonderful hosts on check in, and quickly showed us the ropes. Then, total privacy. They had fixed the small place up with lots of clever space saving features. Our stay was three nights, and it was too short. We headed to Cannes, and wished that we had booked more nights here. Merci Marie and Jean XO, Arthur and Yumi

A real hidden gem

This property was so much better in real life than the photos - which were great. It is located close to the sea front with loads of small local shops nearby. It has great public transport links to Nice, Monaco and beyond. The home itself is exceptional. Decorated to a very high standard with some amazing details. We could have moved in here full time - it really is that good. Both the host Marie and her husband made themselves available for any queries and the check in was easy, with a full explanation of all the facilities. I can not praise Marie or her home enough. You will not be disappointed with your stay here.

Great Space - Cool Location

This was a fantastic place to spend a week close to the beach. The property is cute and very well equipped. We like to cook, and the kitchen, while small (and size appropriate for the property) was very well equipped. Also on-site are an electric grill and a great outdoor space. Marie, was a great host, and checked in on how we were doing a couple of times to make sure we didn’t need anything. The location was better than we expected, just off a cute little street and the surrounding area has lots of options for food, several bakeries, and fresh produce, meat, and seafood, as well as a wide variety of restaurants. The local bus and rail systems were easy and efficient to use. We really enjoyed our stay, and will definitely plan on staying again (if it isn’t already booked) next time we’re in the area.

Everything was superb

The property has new, modern appliances, cabinets, and bathroom. The exterior doors are new also. The small home is beautifully decorated with a nautical theme. The outdoor front patio is very convenient. The flowers all around the 'Allee' add a pretty touch. The location is perfect, it's close to the beaches and right next to a cross road that is closed to road traffic much of the time for street dining and some live music. It's also a very quiet area at night. The owners, John and Marie live next door, are very friendly and usually available if needed. There is an elementary school in back and you can sometime hear children playing after 8am on weekdays from the lower bedroom.

Best VRBO Rental and Delightful Hosts Ever!

Marie and Jean were wonderful hosts and we loved everything about this ‘atypical fisherman’s cottage’! Now I understand the name - as it was decorated so beautifully (nothing fishy about it). Marie’s art and creative sense of style were everywhere. Everything you could possibly need was included (i.e. dishwasher, washing machine, coffee pods, paper products etc. - which aren’t always included at other properties we have rented in France) and the location was superb - really close to the Nice Airport. The outdoor space was lovely and private. We walked along the beach to Antibes and took the train all over as the Cros-Cagnes station is only a short walk. Many restaurants in Cagnes-sur-Mer and area, and a cute market just steps away was set up on Tuesday and Thursday. You don’t really need a car here, but if you do, rent a small one. The upstairs loft has a very comfortable, adjustable bed (with dual controls), but if you are tall, best to stay in the downstairs bedroom as the slanted beams have some low points. Only wish we had stayed longer - but will most definitely be back!
