With a beautiful view of Cathédrale Saint-Nicolas de Nice, this unique home is a treasure. It has been interior designed by a travel writer and furnished with antiques from across the globe, giving this home a museum-like feel. It’s not just this apartment that’s steeped in history, the locale was favoured by Queen Victoria and many European monarchs. This abode is set away from the crowds – the flower market and attractions of the Old Town are within walking distance or a short ride away. Nice’s stunning beaches, on the other hand, are around a twenty-minute stroll from this unforgettable home.

Whitewashed and compact, this fuss-free apartment is the perfect base from which to explore the dazzling French Riviera. Inside, parquet, rattan and tufts of pampas combine to create a relaxing living space – curl up on the loveseat with a coffee in the mornings and a chilled glass of wine in the evenings.

Rustle up a traditional salade niçoise in the kitchen or try out a local restaurant if you’d prefer to leave it to the professionals. Spend golden afternoons stretched out on Voilier Beach, less than a five-minute walk away, before strolling down the Promenade des Anglais with an ice cream in hand. Mosey into the old town for its jumble of narrow cobblestone streets, pastel-hued buildings and artisanal shops. In the early evening, admire the masterpieces in the Modern and Contemporary Art Museum, then head up to Castle Hill for a knockout sunset.

Mediterranean Seabreeze

Relax with your morning coffee on the balcony and watch the world go by at this apartment in the centre of Nice. Given the central location, it can be a tad noisy, but we love that it's filled with sunlight and comfortable to boot.

Famous tourist sites are only a five-to-ten-minute walk away, so there'll be plenty to do in the local vicinity. The area is full of charming shops and eateries, all of which are accompanied by the delicious aroma of coffee from local cafés. Or, dip your toes in the magnificent blue waves of Cannes or take a boat ride in Monaco – about a forty-five-minute drive away.

If you don't have a car, the location is ideal for walking, so you won't have any transportation issues. If you would like to explore further, the nearest bus stop is only a two–minute walk away, and a tram stop is only a three–minute walk away.

This home might not be the largest flat we’ve ever seen, but it punches well above its weight. That's what come to mind as you take in the bold zebra stripes moving down the walls and the subtle pops of blue and fuchsia in the curtains and artwork. It’s in a great spot in the centre of Nice, and comes with a range of utilities and nearby parking spaces too. If efficiency, beauty and location are your priorities, there's nowhere better to look.

Straight Down to the Sea

Combining the winning qualities of modern, comfortable interiors with panoramic views that will have your jaw on the floor as soon as you cross the threshold, this two-bedroom apartment offers an unforgettable stay in the hills of Villefranche-sur-Mer. A true Mediterranean gem, it’s filled with natural light and features a private terrace that frames the spectacular vista, inviting lazy mornings and sun-drenched afternoons.

Location, location, location – it doesn't get much better than this. Nestled in the picturesque Saint Jean Cap Ferrat, you'll be able to enjoy one of the best positions on the French Riviera here. Overlooking the Cap Ferrat peninsula, there's a sunny balcony to enjoy – the perfect spot for alfresco dining – as well as access to a shared saltwater pool. Prefer the beach? You're in luck, as you'll have your pick of some of the very best, complete with beach clubs and restaurants, all within walking distance. The towns of Cap Ferrat, Villefranche-sur-Mer and Beaulieu-sur-Mer are also just a short stroll from home, meaning there's no need for a car here (though if you do choose to bring one, underground parking is available).

Riviera Treasure

Here’s what you come to the Côte d'Azur for – big blue skies, sparkling seas, and charming Rivera resorts. Those seaside delights are within easy reach when you stay at this bright and breezy home. Our favourite feature is the wrap-around balcony, where spectacular views accompany every al fresco breakfast or afternoon aperitif. Two of the bedrooms open onto the balcony, so you can go straight from slumber to sunshine. And with the centre of beautiful Beaulieu-sur-Mer a short walk away, enjoying a day on the soft sandy beach or a delicious Mediterranean meal couldn’t be simpler. We could get used to this lovely life by the sea – and we think you’ll agree.

 Beaulieu Blue

You’ll find this contemporary home nestled in the hills of Villefranche-sur-Mer. Outside, there are stunning views from the private heated pool and there’s a terrace with a barbecue for magical evening meals. Inside, the rooms are fresh, minimal and well suited to families with three floors offering an abundance of space to stretch out. There’s also a cinema room with a projector for movie screenings. Private parking is available and it’s just a short drive to the nearest beaches as well as the vibrant heart of Nice.

Wherever the day takes you, this apartment provides the perfect spot to switch off and relax. There’s a private terrace and a balcony with a sea view. Plus, the rooms are family friendly and daily housekeeping can be arranged for an additional fee. 

Song For You 

This modern apartment offers a tranquil escape with breathtaking views. It’s in Villefranche-sur-Mer, looking out over the Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat peninsula and the bay – the terrace is a wonderful spot for admiring the vista, whether you’re dining alfresco or dozing in the shade. The apartment is contemporary and comfortable, with plenty of space. It’s close to a bakery and a supermarket, and in a great location for visiting nearby Nice and the beaches of the French Riviera. 

Panoramic Dreams

Occupying a privileged spot in Èze, this apartment is perfectly placed for a laidback coastal getaway. There’s a balcony with beautiful sea views and a communal pool for refreshing dips. Inside, the rooms have been thoughtfully designed for couples and solo travellers in search of simplicity and ease. We recommend hiring a car to get around here, but private parking is available and it’s just a short drive to the nearest beach as well as the glamorous heart of Monaco.


Slow Living 

Board Games

This studio apartment in the heart of Beaulieu is compact, but cute. Located between Nice and Monaco, it's perfect for a solo traveller or a couple looking to explore the best of the Côte d'Azur. There's free parking here, so you can hop in the car and visit the neighbouring cities easily. Or you can walk five minutes to the train station and be whisked to Nice or Monaco in ten minutes, or even Italy in forty. After a day of exploring, treat yourself to dinner in a beachfront restaurant or a glass of wine on the private balcony as you watch the sun set.

Beautiful Place

Sauna

Access to Beach

There's a quiet grandeur to this apartment that we can't help but love. Located on the fourth floor of a striking art deco building, the interior feels quintessentially French – from the parquet flooring and crown moulding to the oversized windows flooding the rooms with light. The design is modern but still honours that bourgeois style with blue velvet furnishings and interesting artwork. It's a lush getaway that two couples or a small family will enjoy calling their home from home while they're in town. The location is excellent, too. The apartment is situated in the bustling Musician's Quarter, surrounded by charming belle époque architecture and only a fifteen-minute walk to the beach. Start your day with a coffee and a danish from the patisserie across the street before seeing the sights. Stroll along the famous Promenade des Anglais, explore the winding alleyways in Old Nice or shop for local produce and colourful bouquets at the market stalls in Cours Saleya. After a long day, unwind with a bottle of bubbly in the dining room – you're in France, after all.

Sunlit Serenades

You can’t help but be wowed by this French Riviera home. Though this six-bedroom villa is a thoroughly modern addition to the cliffside, it feels as much a part of the landscape as the trees and rocks – perhaps it’s the abundant use of glass, which makes the transition between outside and inside almost seamless, or perhaps it’s the classic, minimalist design inside the home, the simplicity and chicness of the decor echoing the white sands and blue waters of the beach below. Whatever it is, this home looks utterly at home in its perch above the seas, and we think you’ll feel equally at home as you settle into it. 

Glimmer Glitter

Mosquito Net

This idyllic stone villa is split over two parts, perfect for families enjoying a Côte d'Azur escape together. The views of Eze village are the real highlight here – you can admire them from the terrace, the outdoor pool, and even one of the dining rooms. Inside, there are bedrooms, dining areas and kitchens in both parts of the villa. Outside, there are ample seating areas for lounging or sharing meals together. The location is great too – a fifteen-minute drive to the beach, twenty minutes to Monaco, and a fifteen-minute walk to Eze village where you'll find authentic eateries, cafés and bars. 


The Stone Villa

Perfectly placed in the heart of Beaulieu-sur-Mer, this fresh apartment offers a peaceful base with easy access to the best of the French Riviera. Whether you're heading to the beach (just 300 metres away) or hopping on a train to explore Nice or Monaco, everything is within reach. Inside, you'll find two spacious, air-conditioned bedrooms ideal for lazy mornings or a quiet siesta. After a day on the coast, return home to unwind with all the home comforts you need, think: high-speed Wi-Fi and a compact kitchen ready for relaxed, Riviera dinners.

Blue Azure Horizons

Outdoor Pool

Soak up some peace and sunshine from this elevated retreat above Nice, with sweeping views across the mountains and sea. Mornings begin on the terrace with coffee in hand, and evenings end with golden skies, good wine, and the glow of the Côte d’Azur. There’s a shared pool to cool off, and plenty of space to unwind inside and out. Everything feels calm, fresh and open. You’ll need a car to reach shops and restaurants, but it’s a small trade-off for such a tranquil setting. This is a dreamy base for recharging, exploring, and enjoying the best of the Riviera at your own pace.

Formerly an olive farm, this villa was converted into an aristocrat’s home the 18th century, and has recently been restored to all its former grandeur, with some added modern comforts. It’s totally charming: the butter yellow exteriors are complimented by forest green shutters, and on one side there’s a tower rising three floors high. The interiors are typified by their old world charm: high ceilings, antique french tiled floors, duck egg blue curtains and oil paintings make the living space a cosy place to relax. The modern, fully renovated kitchen has two sliding glass doors leading to an al fresco table, which is the perfect spot to enjoy home cooked delights on sunny days. 

The villa is in a private and serene area on a hilltop, surrounded by two hectares of fragrant landscaped gardens, featuring numerous terraces, centennial olive trees, cypresses, and oleanders that lead up to a woodland. Wander down one of the paths to admire panoramic views of the Saint-Véran Forest, the Alps and the sea. 

Stroll fifteen minutes down to old Villeneuve-Loubet, a charming Provencal village for coffee and pastries in the morning, before coming home for a dip in the pool. On sunny days, hop in the car and drive fifteen minutes to your pick of sandy beaches along the coastline, before lunch at a seafront restaurant. You’ll want to make it back home for sunset, for drinks on the terrace as the land turns golden. On warm evenings, light the candles at the poolside table and enjoy dinner beneath the stars.

Can you believe you'll have this impressive villa all to yourself? Well, aside from your dedicated butler, chef, and security guard, that is. Perched in the hills of Villefranche-sur-Mer, it commands incredible views of the French Riviera all the way from Cap Ferrat to Saint Tropez – but the interiors are equally breathtaking (and that's saying something). Modern art and statement architectural features vie for your attention, while the unique layout ensures that every room boasts stunning sea views. Unwind in the wellness area (there's an indoor pool, sauna, and gym), then take a seat on the terrace with a glass of French wine from your fully-stocked wine cellar. Guests can have their pick of sun-soaked balconies and terraces during the day, before gathering together for an exquisite alfresco meal in the evening – simply ask the chef to light up the barbecue. 

Horizon Fantasy

Situated on the top floor of a Belle Époque-style building in the heart of Beaulieu-sur-Mer, this elegant apartment offers a serene setting and sweeping views of the Mediterranean. Just a short stroll from local shops, beaches, and the train station, it’s perfectly placed for those chasing the sun and with an itch to explore the French Riviera. Inside, the apartment is fully air-conditioned and quietly stylish, with access to a private garden below – a rare find in such a central location. A lift whisks you up to your peaceful retreat, and private parking for one car adds extra convenience. This is Côte d’Azur living at its most refined – and relaxed.

Savour a taste of the high life in more ways than one with a stay in this elegant holiday home. 

Situated up in the hills of the glamorous neighborhood of Beausoliel and overlooking those brilliant aquamarine waters that lent the Cote D'azur its name, this fifth-floor apartment offers luxurious comfort as well as a fabulous location in one of the most exclusive destinations in the world. 

We love how the decor of this home channels influences from its surroundings. Thoughtfully placed accents of vivid blue mimic the hue of the Mediterranean Sea just outside your door, whilst chic teals and beiges work in harmony and succeed in echoing the archetypal colours of the French Riviera. 

Wake to the sounds of seagulls gliding by, before sliding open the doors that lead onto the sun-soaked balcony and feeling the gentle warmth of the morning on your face. If you're really lucky, the scent of freshly brewed coffee will begin to waft in as (hopefully) someone else has already put on the first brew of the day. 

Spend the morning like a true South of France socialite, heading up to the shared rooftop pool for a dip before a leisurely alfresco breakfast with the hills of Monaco as your backdrop. Both the positioning and the purposeful design of this property create opportunities to delight each one of your senses in a manner that would satisfy the Grimaldis themselves.

If today feels like a beach day, then all you need to do is meander down the path leading from the apartment building to the glittering coast. Or, why not take in some of Monaco's other world-famous sights, such as the opulent casino at Monte Carlo or the lavish Prince's Palace? One of our favourite things to do has got to be a stroll around the beautiful Japanese Garden, located just a 15-minute walk from the apartment. 

However you choose to spend your day, the balcony here was made for aperitifs. So, grab yourself a drink to take out onto the balcony and make sure to catch that sunset – the colour of which you'll find mirrored in your Aperol spritz!

Monaco Magic

Perched above Villefranche-sur-Mer, this top-floor apartment delivers Riviera living at its finest. With a private 90-square-metre rooftop terrace, panoramic views over Cap Ferrat, and designer-curated interiors, it’s a sun-soaked sanctuary that sits prettily between Nice and Monaco. Enjoy your morning coffee as the Mediterranean glistens below or sip wine under the stars after a day exploring the coast. Keen to explore the coast? The harbour, beach, and charming old town of Villefranche are all within a leisurely ten-minute walk. Or, hire a car to explore even more of the Cote d’Azur effortlessly. 

Cap Ferrat Dream

Extra Pillows and Blankets

Just above the Promenade des Anglais, this functional apartment earned its place in our collection for its beachside location. While the terrace won't fit everyone at the same time, it does offer fantastic views of the ocean and palm-lined promenade – perfect for people-watching. We love the idea of enjoying a few glasses of wine out there as the sun slowly sets along the coast. The interior is on the simpler side and won't be winning any design awards, but as a base for both beach escapades and excursions into Nice's nearby city centre, it can't easily be beaten.

Cool & Classic

Parking On Street

This spectacular hilltop escape has views that sweep across the French Riviera—from Cannes and Nice to the bay of Beaulieu. Every detail of this beautifully designed home is made for laid-back luxury, from the elegant interiors to the many sea-facing terraces. The light-filled living spaces spill out to a vast outdoor area with a jacuzzi, summer kitchen and gorgeous pool. The master suite crowns the top floor with its own terrace and unforgettable panorama. There’s also an independent studio with a sofa bed and en-suite. A lift connects each level for added ease.  You’ll need a car to explore the coast, but for a home and setting this extraordinary, it’s absolutely worth it.

Hilltop Panorama

Welcome to this dream retreat in the heart of the French Riviera. Set in lush gardens with a stunning pool and summer kitchen, it’s made for long, lazy days and unforgettable alfresco dinners. Inside, you'll find elegant designer interiors, a gym, sauna, games room, and plenty of space to unwind. The top-floor master suite is the showstopper, with panoramic sea views, a private terrace, and a freestanding bathtub perfectly positioned to soak in the scenery. Every room is filled with natural light and refined comfort. You’ll need a car to get around, and with no lift, there are stairs to climb. But with views and spaces like this, it’s more than worth it.

It's hard to know where to start when talking about our favourite things about this magnificent holiday home on France's captivating Cote d'Azur. 

Of course, the meticulously finished, thoughtfully decorated interior is among its many highlights – providing a setting that is at once comfortable and luxurious, whilst also feeling relaxed and homely and exuding a certain beguiling, understated rustic elegance. Step outside, and you're sure to find the exterior areas of this home truly exquisite. With loads of inviting spaces to sit and enjoy a drink while taking in the splendour of your surroundings, the hardest thing will be deciding exactly where to park yourself for an hour or two. Then there's the wonderful location amid a quiet, leafy area in Saint-Paul, one of the area's most sought-after locations. Nestled on the edge of an untamed forest on a large plot of around 5000 square metres filled with fruit trees, palms, and flowers, the feeling here is more of being on a private estate than simply a villa. 

Spend your days here exploring the expansive grounds within and beyond the property's perimeters. Anyone for a spot of tennis? If so, you needn't leave the grounds. The same goes should you want to while away an hour or two with a game of boules, or if you simply fancy a dip in the pool before drying off in the sun, lazing on one of the loungers in the afternoon warmth. 

Or, take the roughly 35-minute stroll into the old town of Saint-Paul-de-Vence, where you will find bundles of quintessentially southern French charm, fantastic restaurants serving the finest local cuisine, and one winding cobbled laneway prettier than the last within the old city walls. For something a little more upmarket, or to mark a special occasion, there are several (that's right, several) Michelin-star restaurants reachable with just a short drive.

For those with a taste for the archetypal French Riviera, the effortlessly chic town of Nice, perched on the glittering waters of the Mediterranean, is just a 25-minute drive away. Now, that's enough to make anyone say Bon Voyage.
