We’ve just returned from a wonderful holiday at this fantastic villa. It’s so much better than the photos in reality and its location is ideal for visiting nearby beautiful towns and villages, mountains and beaches. You can walk into Valbonne in about 25 mins which is great too. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen well equipped and the massive tv great for movies! The outside space is just perfect for lazy days and evenings. The owners are always helpful and attentive to any queries we had and are great hosts. Merci Sylvie et Pierre. Would highly recommend.

This villa is a peaceful piece of paradise and the hosts are exceptional! We were greeted by the hosts who also were on site for our departure which made the whole experience even more note worthy. This villa is very well appointed and the yard and pool are even more beautiful than on the pictures.

Fabulous house is perfect French village

We had a wonderful stay in Villa Miel. The house was perfect for relaxing and had everything we could wish for over our two week stay. The connection between the kitchen, living, pool and outdoor dinning space worked really well for our family of 6. Sylvie and Pierre made us very welcome and were very generous, communicative and helpful. This was our second visit to the village of Valbonne - and cannot rave about it enough! We will be back to Valbonne and Villa Miel!

Beautiful

The house was exactly as pictured: clean, spacious, well furnished, clearly a cut above. Valbonne an easy 10 minute drive. Mosquitoes come out at dusk at this time of the year. Repellent sold in every pharmacy. The pool is the answer to hot weather, morning, noon and night. Sylvie was gracious, extremely helpful and delightful. We loved our stay.

Excellent from start to finish. The villa is simply stunning & finished to a very very high standard. Lots of open space, natural light & the outside spaces are perfect for relaxing.The pool area is perfect with numerous locations to enjoy the sun.The beds are the most comfortable out of all of the villas we have stayed in & as you would to expect to find in a 5* hotel.The pictures give you a glimpse of how stunning this villa is, however you have to see the villa with your own eyes to appreciate how good this place is.Location of the villa is perfect for exploring Valbonne & the surrounding areas.We discussed with our friends on the way back to the UK & we all agreed this is the best villa we have ever stayed in. We will become repeat guests!Finally, Sylvie & Pierre are fantastic hosts. Very welcoming, friendly & offering some local knowledge about the local area which really helpsThank you Sylvie & Pierre!

Bliss at Villa Miel Valbonne

A truly excellent stay at Villa Miel for our family of 6 adults (3 couples) celebrating a special birthday. Upon our arrival we were greeted by our hosts Sylvie and Pierre who gave us a detailed tour of their villa and an overview of the local area. The villa is exactly as expected which is shown by the photos on the VRBO website, a secluded location and quiet, a very nice pool and well maintained gardens. Internally the villa has large rooms with lovely décor. It is very well equipped with everything you need, good air conditioning if required, comfortable beds and perfect eating areas inside and out, plus a perfect size Weber gas BBQ. The local town of Valbonne has some very good restaurants, shops and a market on Friday morning which is which is well worth a visit. We would definitely recommend Villa Miel to our family and friends for a perfect holiday. Many thanks Sylvie and Pierre for our lasting memories. Mike Poole

Tolles Haus

Sehr schönes und geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Haus. Tolle Terrasse mit Pool. Das einzige was fehlte war der Meerblick, der im Inserat erwähnt wird. Der war vielleicht mal vorhanden als die Büsche und Bäume niedriger waren, jetzt jedoch haben zumindest wir das Meer nicht gesehen. Dafür hat man absolute Privatsphäre. Gute Lage um Ausflüge entlang der Côte d‘Azur zu unternehmen. Sehr herzliche und nette Vermieter, sehr familiär. Aus unserer Sicht eine klare Empfehlung.

A Beautiful Family Villa

I would highly recommend Villa Honey. Sylvie made us very welcome and the little extra touches added to our very comfortable stay. The villa is just as beautiful as it looks in the photos with exquisite attention to detail. The facilities were perfect for our teenagers with many boules matches being played. The short walk to Valbonne centre meant that a car wasn't needed at all times and we could all enjoy a glass or two of wine when going out. We would definitely stay again.

Fabulous Villa

Inside and outside Villa Honey is lovely. Inside is beautifully furnished and the many outside areas are great to sunbathe, dine and chill out in the evening. My 4 sons aged from 23 to 12 had fun with the pool, table tennis, French boules and even the jacuzzi! You can see the sea in the distance from the kitchen window but the sea view from the pool area is somewhat obscured by the trees in the neighbouring land. The garden area is huge with lots of trees and shrubs. The section that neighbours the road is cordoned with a type of fencing that does not provide much privacy. 2 of the bedrooms face onto this. However, the road is quiet and not much traffic. A gentle wind keeps the kitchen and living areas cool but there is no airconditioning in the bedrooms. On request the owner provided fans for 2 of the bedrooms and a unit for the master bedroom. This did help in the master bedroom but I feel air conditioning is needed. The owners did say they were considering installing it. It’s a pleasant 20 minute walk down into the lovely village of Valbonne which has many nice restaurants. The World Cup was on when we were there which all added to a great atmosphere. The road is through a well lit residential area. The last bit of the road into the village is quite hilly so might not be great for small children to walk back up. There are buses in the village that go to various places of interest eg we went to Cannes for the day. There is a Spar shop in the village with the nearest supermarket in Opio. A car would be required to get a big shopping (or taxi .... only 1 in Valbonne). Overall we had a really great holiday and would definitely recommend Villa Honey.
