Make yourself at home in Marseille, a short stroll from the vibrant Vieux Port and right in the heart of the hustle and bustle. Set over two floors, this apartment is a comfortable base for exploring the city. It’s a great pick for groups, with two living spaces, a large dine-in kitchen, and sofa beds that sleep four guests. But our favourite feature is the terrace. It’s surprisingly roomy, with space for alfresco meals and comfy seating for cocktails or coffee breaks. And there’s a Jacuzzi too – the perfect place to unwind before heading out to sample the city’s lively nightlife.

Home truths
This home is set over two floors, so you'll need to be able to climb stairs here. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
At full occupancy, four guests will sleep on the two sofa beds – there's one in each of the living rooms.
As is common in France, the two en-suite bathrooms don't have toilets. There's a bathroom with a toilet in the upstairs living area, along with an additional WC.
Two well-behaved pets are welcome to join you upon request.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
Parking in the centre of Marseille can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
