The roof deck watching the sunrise over the Mediterranean may be the most beautiful place in the world.
The property was better than advertised, so close to town, the market, restaurants, walkway along the water, and the beach.
Couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more - will definitely be back!

We loved this villa! The view from the patio was the highlight as well as the spacious, stylish and comfortable rooms. The location was excellent, close to walking areas, restaurants and markets. The team was friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay there again! My only caution is that there are lots of stairs. It wasn’t a problem for our group but could be an issue for older travellers. Thank you!!!

Everything in the house and its environs was wonderful.

Having owned a house in Antibes for 3 years and visited for 22 years we knew this property is in the perfect position in Old Antibes.
The photo's barely do the house justice and it is superbly equipped. The quality of the refurbishment is second to none.

After reviewing this property in advance of the visit, I could not wait to arrive in Antibes . This property exceeded our expectations. It is modern with old Antibes vibes. Each room is beautifully designed. The top level is such a treat. We could see the sea. This was an excellent location . The property manager is a great communicator and waited for our much later than planned arrival. We cannot wait to return to this property. The whole family loved this place including the teen and the young adults.

Five friends celebrating 3 birthdays had a great stay in Villa Pantai which is perfectly situated in the old town right on the seafront, minutes from the market and bars, restaurants etc and the beach. The station/bus yard is a 20 minute walk. The property has been given a first class renovation and everything that you need for a comfortable stay is there. This is my 4th rental in this area and I wouldn't hesitate to rebook this one. Just be aware that if stairs are a problem this probably isn't the right choice for you and that the smallest bedroom has a (great) shower and washbasin but no W.C (you need to go upstairs to find one) - the floorplan does make this clear but it is easy to overlook and may be an issue for some.

Firstly, the pictures on VRBO presented the property as being 5-star in terms of elegance, layout, functionality, cleanliness, etc. They actually understated the quality of this apartment. It's five levels were incredible in every aspect. Communication prior to check-in was excellent both from the owners and from the property manager, Paula, who facilitated a seamless check-in and stay. The layout, design and furnishings of the apartment were wonderful, the location perfect, somewhat secluded but adjacent to a daily market and within sight of the Mediterranean. Our party included three adults, a college student and two children who were easily accommodated by this apartment. It is located in old town Antibes and within walking distance to the Picasso museum, a market, an art district, the marina and many restaurants. Having previously stayed in hotels located in other villages, we have concluded that Antibes is the perfect location and this apartment the perfect accommodation for future visits to the south of France

We had such a lovely time at Maison Pantai. The location of the unit within Antibes is perfect. We rented a car and made trips throughout the area, and Antibes itself proved to be a great home base. The unit is well-equipped, incredibly clean, and offers the comforts of home. We used the grill and enjoyed most evenings on the rooftop patio overlooking the Sea. Paula is incredibly personable and helpful with dinner recommendations and sightseeing. As our daughter sometimes says, we are reluctant to post such a glowing review because we would prefer to "gatekeep" this property to ourselves. Thanks so much.

Beautiful property 'but'
House and location was beautiful. The wifi did not work for the whole week and we could not get any TV's to workwe were there so that was a problem. We phoned the house manager on day 2 and left a message but they did not get back to us. We were not offered compensation. I would suggest having a house manual.

Dear Kim,
I am sincerely sorry if you were unable to benefit from the internet during your stay. This is indeed not normal.
However, we have not received any message from you: neither on the mobile phone number of our managers, nor on my phone number as the owner (the one on Vrbo). I also did not receive a message via Vrbo messaging, nor a direct email message.
We work in the old town, that is to say less than 150 meters from the Pantai house and we always try to intervene very quickly when our tenants need it.
This is the first time in more than 12 years on Vrbo that we have obtained a rating of 3/5 for one of our properties.
Again, if you didn't have the Internet (a cut may actually happen), we should have intervened. But unfortunately we did not receive this information.
