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.

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.

Located in Beaulieu-sur-Mer, this charming apartment offers a taste of village life on the French Riviera. Situated directly on a market square, you’ll be mere steps from shops, cafes and of course, the bustling market stalls selling fresh local produce. You’ll have views across the village as well as the mountains that surround it, which can be enjoyed from the large windows in the open-plan living area. There’s a private garage across the street if you fancy renting a car and exploring – you’re right between Nice and Monaco here so there’s plenty to see and do.

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 is ideal for those who appreciate convenience combined with beauty.

Garden

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.

When we first saw this villa, we completely fell in love. Set across 3 levels and surrounded by sprawling gardens, with a 24-metre heated swimming pool, a private gym, spa, and cinema, there’s little else one could wish for when planning a luxury trip to the Côte d'Azur. Oh, and did we mention it has private beach access? Located along the coastline between Monte Carlo and Nice, this property is perfect for large groups of friends or families with older children.

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

With beautiful views of the Baie des Anges and Parc du Mont Boron, this stunning Belle Époque style home is what dreams are made of. With numerous terraces to make the most of the vistas and the Côte d'Azur climate, you’ll be spoilt for choice. You’ll find lush gardens, a private pool, ornate fountains, balconies and a hot tub. Inside boasts luxurious amenities including a home gym and five of the bedrooms are en-suite – two also have their own lounge areas. The location is special too – there are several beaches nearby, while the city of Nice is a short drive away. This home really does offer an exclusive oasis.

Mediterranean Seabreeze

Rising out of the emerald mountainside like a Bond villain’s lair, this modern glass home makes a real statement. Looking for somewhere that’s for your eyes only? This home is incredibly private, with mature trees and sculpted greenery hiding the terraces, rooftop pool and a hidden long, narrow pool further down the garden from unwanted attention. How about a view to a kill? Well, there are absolutely unbeatable vistas of Cap Ferrat and the glittering French Riviera from almost every angle here. And we all know that diamonds are forever, but we think the memories you’ll make - whether you’re playing piano in the opulent living room, enjoying your best ever night’s sleep or sipping champagne with your legs dangling in the pool - will last a lifetime. Oh, and there’s a cinema room, too, where you can watch all your favourite movies, 007 or otherwise.

From The Riviera With Love

Games Room

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. 

Villa Tourelle

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

Workplace

Nestled on the prosperous peninsula of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, this hillside villa looks west across the glittering Rade de Villefranche-sur-Mer towards the UNESCO listed district of Mont Boron. The home spans three levels, including a grand living and dining space with its own sea view balcony. For those comfortable reaching the summit, the reward is a stunning rooftop terrace, complete with a large private pool where swimmers can peek through a window into a top floor corridor. You'll be moments away from beaches, parks, and other stunning mansions in an area known for its affluence, while Nice, the Alpes-Maritimes capital city, is half an hour by car.

Cap Ferrat Paradise

In the medieval village of Haut-de-Cagnes, there’s a townhouse that captured our hearts the moment we walked up the cobbled streets to its front door. Welcomed by the effortless French style we’ve long admired, the home has been carefully curated to inspire. 

The artistic and traditional features of the living and dining area, perfectly blend with luxurious details to create a sense of ease and relaxation. Open the large wooden doors onto the beautiful terrace and enjoy incredible views of the French countryside. This is the perfect spot to enjoy dinners al fresco, sip local wine and simply bask in the beauty of this special place. 

Spend the day winding your way along country roads, visiting the renowned markets of Antibes, exploring Chateau Musee Grimaldi where Renoir once lived, or enjoy a slow afternoon with a book in a local cafe. 

End your day with an exceptional dining experience in Cannes which is only a forty-minute drive away, or soak in the magic of the village setting from your terrace.

Don't Touch The Art

Playground

Tennis Court

Enjoy the best of the beach and city when you stay at this modern apartment. Located in the picturesque residential area of Fabron, this home makes a great base for sun-seekers and sightseers who want to stay a little outside the bustling city centre. The private terrace is a serene spot to spend a lazy afternoon – the bedroom, kitchen, and living area all open onto this sunny space, making the rooms light and bright. Outside, there’s a shared pool for cooling off on hot days, or jump in the car for a short drive to the seaside.

Secured Parking

This modern apartment is in the heart of Antibes, just a short walk from the Picasso Museum and Port Vauban. You’ll be perfectly located for exploring the French Riviera, and will have a comfortable space to call home when you’re not out and about. The apartment is ideal for couples and solo travellers, equipped with everything you might need for a short break. The light-filled living space leads to the kitchen, where you can whip up dishes – though you’ll have plenty of restaurants to choose from nearby if you want to sample the local cuisine. 

Azure Antibes

It seems only fitting that you’ll have your own wine cave in this home – you will be staying in a vineyard after all. In the green hills of Saint Paul de Vence and with 3.8 hectares of glorious gardens to enjoy, this is a spectacular home to gather in for a special event or just treat yourself to a Riviera holiday in style. You’ll have a whole resort’s worth of amenities to enjoy – there are indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a tennis court (hard court, in case you’re wondering), fully-equipped outdoor kitchen, pool table and a cinema room with rows of recliners that will take movie night to a whole new level. The kitchen is equipped with Gaggenau appliances and the fourteen-seater dining table will ensure that you really can savour the wine over a long dinner. When you’ve finished your feast, choose between two living rooms, decorated in shades of blue and white, with matching porcelain vases and houndstooth rugs. Or take your glass out to one of the outdoor terraces and breathe in the fresh country air before drifting off in the comfort of one of the seven bedrooms.

Welcome Hamper

There’s a distinctly provincial feel to this villa in the southern French countryside. The charming village of St Paul De Vence is walkable and Nice is an easy drive away. With a private swimming pool surrounded by greenery, loads of furnished patios and terraces, and a fully-equipped summer kitchen, it’s clear this place is designed for days outdoors in the southern sun. It’s naturally cool inside, thanks to the open living areas connected by archways and tiled floors underfoot. The cellar-like stocked bar is a nice surprise. Plus, there’s an exercise room for morning workouts. Bedrooms are split between a main villa and two dependences.

Outdoor Fireplace / Firepit

Nestled on a mountainside above the historic town of Vence, this home offers a peaceful retreat with breathtaking views of the Côte d'Azur. Ideal for extended family or a group of friends, it’s impossible not to relax here. But for us, the cherry on top is the outdoor space. We love the private pool, secret dining spots, and, of course, those views that stretch for miles. If they tempt you away from home, it’s a mere three kilometres down the mountain to Vence, where a host of French eateries await, or you can pop to the daily market for some local produce to cook at home. 

French Gold

Foosball / Table Football

Set on the grounds of a thirteenth-century chateau, this home offers the chance to stay on one of the oldest estates on the Côte d’Azur. It’s a part of France famous for its artistic heritage. Picasso, Matisse and Cézanne all painted in the area, and the Picasso museum, Matisse chapel and the Colombe D'or - where artists would pay for food with paintings - keep this rich history alive. Just a 3km walk to the sea, and 15km and 23km from Nice and Cannes respectively, you're perfectly positioned to explore the region. That is, if you can tear yourself away from the tranquility of the salt-filtered pool, 8.5 hectares of private parkland and shaded outdoor terrace.

La Palme D'Or

At this heavenly waterfront home in Cap d’Antibes, relax in style surrounded by the sights and sounds of the sea. Inside, white-washed walls, sharp black accents and smooth grey tiles create a modern Mediterranean ambience in the living room space. Upstairs, you’ll find each room has its own story to tell with a plethora of unique details such as curved window frames, a rock wall installation and colourful tiles. 

We can’t decide which we love more – the roof terrace for alfresco dining or the outdoor swimming pool, perfect for a refreshing swim at daybreak. Though it’s tempting to spend your afternoons lounging on the balcony beguiled by the ocean views, we recommend taking the leisurely thirty-minute wander into the old town of Antibes – the Musée Picasso is well worth a visit – or strolling along Salis Beach, a mere ten minutes from your doorstep.
