One of Menton’s nicest beaches, Plage des Sablettes Est is a 15-minute walk. Visitors can stroll along the Plage des Sablettes beaches to the Old Port, where some of the world’s most expensive boats are moored for the summer months. Alternatively, guests can head east over the border into Italy and spend a day on the famous Spiaggia dei Balzi Rossi (7-minute drive).

All the amenities that guests will need are within a 5-minute walk of the apartment; restaurants, bars, supermarket and bakery. For the best local produce, head to the covered market, Le Marché des Halles, on Quai de Monleon (7-minute drive). Every day of the week you can find the finest regional food including cheese, fish, charcuterie etc.

The best way to explore the coast is by train and the local Menton Garavan station is just a 10-minute walk from the apartment. From here you can travel east into Italy or westwards along the Côte d’Azur to Monte Carlo (25 minutes) and Nice (45 minutes).
