About this property
Waterfront property, 43 steps from the beach, 2 miles from Monaco, air-condition
The holiday home "Flanc d´Roche" is located in a natural environment, hidden in a green valley between Monte Carlo and the Cap Ferrat, just above a small beach and away from the usual tourism. It was built on a cliff just about 20 meters above the sea level and is surrounded by a Mediterranean garden on different levels. At first glance there are no direct neighbors. This beach front property is to be reached only by a footpath (approx. 150 meters and 100 steps) and a small private bridge. Your car can be left on the street. A separate free parking space is reserved for our guests at the entrance of the footpath. The house disposes of a small entrance, a large open-plan living and dining area for 6, a fully-fitted separate kitchen, an international library (books in 6 languages), a fireplace, 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms, a winter garden (veranda) and a patio. The living area opens to several terraces with breathtaking views on the Mediterranean Sea. The kitchen is furnished in the style of the 80s, but has all modern standards (oven, dishwasher, microwave, fridge-freezer, washing machine, etc.). Outdoor garden furniture (tables, chairs, armchairs, loungers - with cushions) as well as a shower and a large beach umbrella are at your disposal. The small, almost private pebble beach (depending on the season) can be reached in less than 2 minutes, just 43 steps away, by foot! A small part of the beach is nice and sandy. The water in this part of the Côte d´Azur is extremely beautiful and clear. We do not have a swimming pool. The sea is our pool. The train which drives past all water properties along the Côte d´Azur (with a maximum speed of about 20 miles p.h.) does not disturb. It reminds you of the fact that the civilization can not be so far. Indeed, Monaco is les than 2 miles away. This tastefully furnished summer house was built in the 1950s and fascinates by high ceilings and floorboards floors. Flanc d´Roche is a romantic secluded beach house and offers everything four persons need to relax and to escape from everyday life. SHOPPING: In the village Cap d'Ail, about half a mile in the direction of Monaco, there is a post office, a chemist, some bars, restaurants, small hotels as well as shopping possibilities (baker, butcher, food market, etc.). In Monaco, 2 miles away you´ll find a big supermarket and shopping centre 'Carrefour'. TOURISM & CULTURE: The Côte d'Azur is known like no other region. More than two centuries ago, the English nobility has chosen the Côte d'Azur and made it to one of its favourite destinations, because this beautiful region is mostly sunny and not windy (we are naturally protected by the Alps and the red rocky Esterel mountains). In the Provence with its olive groves and lavender fields you can visit the fairytale-like medieval small towns, so-called 'Villages Perchés' (Eze-Village, St-Agnes, Roquebrune, Vence, St Paul-de-Vence, Gourdon, etc.). There is a broad cultural offer on the Côte (music and theatre festivals, concerts, museums, exhibitions, etc.). RECOMMENDED TRIPS: Monaco, Nice, Cannes, St.Paul de Vence, San Remo, Eze-Village, Cap Ferrat, Beaulieu-sur-Mer, Menton, Antibes, Valauris, Ventimiglia. DAY TRIPS: Saint Tropez, Aix-En-Provence, Marseille, etc.

The house is nice, the terrace wonderful, and the setting superb. The eight minute walk from the road and the four minute walk to the beach were more than justified by the amazing setting and having a beach all or nearly to ourselves in the mornings and with modest numbers of people the rest of the day. Benoit is a wonderful host. We would be thrilled to visit again.
Very nice beach location, secluded and with a view
We loved it - nice host, great location, great view, amazing beach. Make sure you’re able to handle the walk, but as long as a little walk is fine you’ll love it! Benoit is very helpful
An oasis of rest off the beaten path. Super close to Monaco, Cap d'Ail and Eze, yet the cottage is away from the traffic and crowds. Perfect for the break we were seeking!
...and then a dip at the secluded beach...
Stunning views from this amazing property. Loved the private bridge access (you have to be able to handle the steps!) Benoit very helpful with tips and recommendations. We had a lovely time.
It was wonderful. Exceeded our expectations. Benoit our host was at the ready but unobtrusive. Septic will need addressing but it didn’t hinder our use.
Thanks to Benoit for welcoming us to his very unique and beautiful house. The situation in nature with views of the sea was very special. The house has the character and spirit of the place, something not easily found these days. Communication, parking, access and the situation were exactly as described. We booked last minute and Benoit was immediately responsive and able to accommodate us. Highly recommended!

Lieber Gast,
vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung.
Es freut uns, dass Sie sich bei uns wohl gefühlt haben.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

We (family of 4 with kids 12 & 13) had a fantastic stay at Flanc de Roche. The house has great views over the sea and the small, quiet pebble beach can be reached in a couple of minutes.
It is a bit of a walk from the car park to the villa so not really suited to those who aren't fully mobile, but this inconvenience is well worth the views and excellent access to the beach.
Benoit was an excellent host and gave lots of local information and advice when we checked in. The house itself is well furnished and maintained as a family holiday home giving it a personal feel.
Overall a great stay and one that has provided many happy memories.

The house was just fine and suited our needs. It did have a beautiful view from the terrace, including the water, which was really the appeal for us to rent this home. The proximity to the beach was also part of the appeal and we spent a lot of time swimming. The con was that the walk to the house was significantly far (like a 1/4 mile), down a very steep hill with lots of steps, from where you have to park. Bringing your luggage, groceries, and generally leaving and returning to the house each day was a workout. This wasn’t as clear as it should have been in the description, so be aware. It’s a heavy hike to get out of there uphill. That said, Benoit was a gracious host, and in spite of the walking distance we very much enjoyed our stay and were glad we did.

Dear tenant. We are pleased that you liked our house and that you were able to enjoy some wonderful vacation days by the sea. Although you gave us a lot of positive feedback, you were disappointed with the access to our house. We very much regret this. Please allow us to comment briefly on this: We always inform all guests in detail about the accessibility of our house via the booking system but also by e-mail: “The property can only be reached via a beach path (approx. 150 meters) with about 100 steps”. In our e-mail correspondence we also recommend to avoid large pieces of luggage on wheels as much as possible and to use handy travel bags if possible (our tip: large blue IKEA bags). In addition to various bags you also brought 5 large pieces of luggage on wheels with you. It was therefore certainly not very pleasant to carry all that luggage up at the end of your stay. Today, we took your valuable appraisal as an opportunity to measure the distance from the road (our private parking space) to our entrance very precisely, with the help of a hodometer, a measuring wheel: It is exactly 207 meters (less than 0,13 mile) and this path contains exactly 110 steps. Also, from our point of view, there can be no question of a “steep” path. Should you like to come back to our summer house, please next time come with less luggage. Our house is always well prepared for our guests (bed linen, towels, tablecloths, bathroom and kitchen textiles, etc.). Best regards,
Your host.
We had an amazing week. Benoit was very accommodating and gave us wonderful recommendations. The view from the house is spectacular. The beach below is heavenly. We spent our mornings on the beach relaxing and listening to the waves. The walk up and down to the house was sometimes challenging but so worth it!! I would highly recommend this beautiful house to anyone able to go up and down stairs. I used a backpack for all by items and it worked perfect. Thank you for sharing you home with us and it was a pleasure to meet you.
My husband and I stayed in this property for 10 days. It was exactly what we were looking for to relax.
The train passes very near but it goes so quick that it doesn’t bother, and they don’t run in the evenings.
The famous 100 steps was an excellent exercise that we did every other day. The house has all that you need for a holiday. The terrace is very ample and comfortable with all the garden furniture for relaxing, sunbathing, and enjoying your meals outside. The view is simply gorgeous.
We went almost every morning very early for a swim in the sea. At that time you have the beach just for yourself. Fantastic!
Last but not least, our compliments to the host, he is friendly, helpful and very accommodating. GRACIAS Benoît. We hope to be back in a near future.
Staying here was an A+ experience. The home owner was very attentive to any questions we had, and made himself available when needed. He is an absolute joy of a person to have stayed with and highly recommend this magical cliff side property! As he notes, it is a bit of a walk to get there (as any good seaside private property should be!) but just to prepare for that 100-ish+ steps of incline. Private beach was such an added bonus to both start & end our days in Southern France!
The property is just 12-15 minutes outside of Monaco as well, and it made our travels their very easy by Uber (we also walked back from Monaco, stunning Mediterranean Sea-side view the entire time) This home has such charm, from the balcony to the grounds of greenery ( which were outstanding- even fruit bearing trees to eat from as well depending on time of year you visit) The train below the balcony only passed through with very short trains, and did not take away from our desired mountain top get away :) If we travel back to Eze in the future, we will absolutely stay here again!!!
This is the second time we have stayed at Flanc d'Roche.
I was having a milestone birthday and thought this place with such happy memories would be perfect for such an occasion. I was not wrong. Once again we had a wonderful stay, and this time our son who was a toddler at our first stay, really got to enjoy the space and the proximity to the fantastic beach. On more than one occasion we had the entire beach to ourselves; it was heaven. He also loved the walk down through the 'jungle' and across the bridge to get to the house. For children or adults it really is magical.
Benôit is incredibly responsive with communications and everything about our stay was smooth and very friendly. We will be back for sure!
May I end by saying if you do decide to stay at Flanc d'Roche, and you absolutely should, do make a daily pilgrimage to the boulangerie Ma Premiere in La Turbie. Far and away the best bread and pastries I've had in France. Then bring them home and enjoy them on the terrace with your morning coffee, listening to the birds and watching the sea. I miss it already.
Many thanks once again Benôit!
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt, gemeinsam mit unserem Hund, sehr genossen. Die Lage ist fantastisch. Der Ausblick von der Terrasse und zu Fuß in 2-3 Minuten ans Meer laufen zu können, ein Traum. Der Zug ist wirklich sehr nah, hat uns aber überhaupt nicht gestört. Viele interessante Ausflüge zwischen Monaco und Nizza, ohne lange Autofahrten, sind möglich.
Wir hatten bisher selten so einen netten, freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Gastgeber wie Benoit. Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt in Deiner Villa!!!

Liebe Gäste, lieber Hausfreund Biene,
vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Wir freuen uns immer sehr, wenn unser Häuschen, die schöne Umgebung neben Monte Carlo und vor allem das wundervoll sauberes Wasser in unserer verstecken Bucht gefallen findet.
Vielen Dank für Ihren Besuch und vielleicht auf Wiedersehen.

Wir hatten ein super schönen Urlaub. Das Haus ist sehr schön und hat eine unschlagbare Lage und Aussicht. Der Gastgeber ist sehr nett und die Schlüsselübergabe etc. war sehr unkompliziert. Bei Fragen kann man sich jederzeit bei ihm melden.
Nous avons visité en famille de 5 (2 adultes et 3 enfants) et avons passé un super séjour. Tout d'abord, Benoît était très accueillant et informatif et nous nous sommes immédiatement sentis calmes. La maison est située dans un endroit magique surplombant la mer depuis son immense terrasse et est accessible à pied par son propre pont privé, unique et très spécial. C'était une courte promenade jusqu'à la plage avec une bonne baignade. À l'intérieur, la maison était très confortable, avait une ambiance chaleureuse et était spacieuse. C'était assez grandiose avec de hauts plafonds et des fenêtres. La maison a tout ce dont vous auriez besoin et une cuisine bien équipée. Eze est un choix fantastique et notre partie préférée de la Côte d'Azur - beaucoup d'intérêt architectural et un accès facile au train pour visiter Monaco, Nice ou l'Italie. Nous reviendrions dans la magnifique propriété de Benoît sans hésiter.

Kurzurlaub über Ostern
Das Haus hat Charakter und ist typisch französisch und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Wir haben es sehr genossen, dass keine unmittelbaren Nachbarn da sind.
Der Weg zum Haus ist doch recht anstrengend, wenn man mehrmals am Tag das Haus verlässt, ist das etwas mühsam (mit Hund habe ich einige 10.000 Schritte gemacht). Auch für den Weg zum Meer sollte man sehr sportlich sein. Aber für einen Kurzurlaub war es in Ordnung, vor allem die natürliche Umgebung, das schöne Haus und die grosse Terrasse sind Highlights.

Lieber Gast.
liebe Frau Simone,
wenn Sie schreiben, dass man "sehr sportlich" sein muss, um den Weg von unserem Haus bis zum Meer zu gehen, so hat uns Ihre Wortwahl doch ein wenig irritiert. In einer Welt voller "fake news" möchten wir daher kurz Stellung dazu nehmen:
Unser Strandhaus liegt, wie ausführlich beschrieben, auf weniger als 50 Meter vom Meer. Es handelt sich hier um die Vogelperspektive. Wenn man den Weg zu Fuß geht, zunächst über unsere private Brücke die etwa 70 Meter lang ist, danach etwa 110 Meter auf dem Strandweg bis ins Wasser der Côte d´Azur (dieser Weg beinhaltet insgesamt 43 normale Stufen), so sprechen wir von insgesamt 180 Metern. Wir sind nicht besonders sportlich, gehen im Sommer dennoch zweimal am Tag schwimmen. Für Ihren kleinen Hund Leyla mag der Weg selbstverständlich sehr viel länger vorkommen.
Wir freuen uns, wenn Sie unser Häuschen am Meer genossen haben und bedanken uns für Ihren Besuch,
Ihr Gastgeber
This property is wonderful for relaxing on the French rivera. The porches offer a great view.
Lots of steps down to the property but well worth it. We had a wonderful stay!
We had a wonderful stay. The property is very comfortable with extensive outdoor space, which we enjoyed. We swam every day at the beach below the property. Benoît was a gracious host, providing us with lots of information and consistently communicating when we had questions.
Fabulous private perch on the French Mediterranean
If you’re looking for a place that feels like your personal, private côté du azuré, this is it. The house is comfortable. The terrace is magnificent in size with furniture and places to set up your favorite activity. The view is mesmerizing and unobstructed. There’s nobody obstructing your view or making noise.
