Perched peacefully above the bustling streets of central Cannes, this charming retreat offers the perfect base for a Riviera escape. Just a minute from Plage du Midi and a short stroll to La Croisette, the Palais des Festivals, and the lively Forville market, you'll be effortlessly immersed in the city’s vibrant spirit. When you're not exploring the cobbled lanes of Le Suquet or sipping rosé at a seaside café, retreat upstairs to enjoy the calm ambience of this top-floor have, a quiet contrast to the glamour unfolding just outside your door.

Home truths

  • Cannes weather can turn quickly – your hosts ask you to raise the blinds when you're not home.

  • The third bedroom has a sloped ceiling and low storage, it’s best suited to children or teens. The 7th bed (in the attic-style room) is a simple fold-out mattress, also best for a child or younger teen.

  • You’ll see a glimpse of the sea from the living area, it’s a partial view, but a lovely bonus for this central spot.

  • Never leave keys inside the door lock from the inside – if the key is left in the lock, it won’t be possible to unlock the door from the outside.
