About this apartment rental

This is the best located apartment in Villefranche sur Mer as it has 5 windows overlooking the port and beachfront near all the restaurants but very quiet. The apartment is luxuriously decorated with pink marble en suites and an independent large bathroom overlooking the bay. It is so close to the water that it is like living on a boat ! Each of the 3 bedrooms are large and two are en suite. The main bedroom overlooks the port. There are no stairs to climb as it is entered off Rue Poilu so is suitable for the infirm. At the waterfront it is 2 floors above the cobbled street which is a cul de sac. The area is over 2000 sq. ft. (180 sq. met) and is therefore larger than most houses but is laid out in the best possible way to ensure light floods all rooms. This is an exceptional property .... called ' The Seagulls' .

APARTMENT LAYOUT: Best apartment in Villefranche. The 3 bedroom apartment is very large and has a u shaped layout. Built in 1820 (and traversing Rue Obscure, dating from the 13th century) , the entrance has bedroom 1 to the left (2 single beds) , then a fully fitted Kitchen with a basement off , housing the air-conditioning, ironing, washer and dryer.

The main bedroom has 2 windows overlooking the port. Everything in the apartment is new , with a very high standard of furniture, bedding, curtains, fabrics, flooring etc. The 3 bathrooms are clad in Pink Portugese Marble and the main bathroom has a high back bath at the window overlooking the port ! All bathrooms have walk-in showers. Floors are Oak and the furniture is French Provencale style . Original paintings from French and Irish artists in all rooms. The kitchen is Cream Provencale with a tiled floor. Total area is over 2000 sq. feet making this the largest apartment in the Old Town . Fibre Optic WiFi installed for high capacity

LOCATION : is unbeatable as it has 5 windows to the front (+ 6 at the back) and there are no stairs to climb. There are 2 balconies to the front . One is fitted with table and chairs.

The space and the views cannot be beat! The ample bedrooms and bathrooms gave our party of 6 so much space to enjoy gathering together for meals and games, as well as privacy with our own showers and bedrooms. Jonathan was a communicative host when we had questions. One bedroom had a foul odor that was quickly addressed. The location was easy to enter and maneuver with only a few steps inside the unit. Mornings were spent with coffee on the balcony watching the bustle of the restaurants below preparing for their day. Restaurant noise below in the evenings was not an issue. We would stay here again in the future. Beautiful place!

Probably the nicest vantage point you are going to find in the cote d'azur for a short term rental apartment. Beautiful views and super convenient access to beach and restaurants.

My family of 2 adults and 2 teens just stayed at the beautiful Seagulls apartment. The location is the best possible in Villefranche with the apartment sitting two floors above the seaside dining of the old town along the harbor and lower corniche. The breathtaking views from the two small balconies overlook the bay and Cap Ferrat with storybook hillside homes and twinkling lights at night. The apartment is huge and exceptionally clean. There are three bedrooms. The master bedroom has a queen bed, large bathroom and balcony overlooking the harbor. The second bedroom has a queen bed and large bathroom but overlooks a charming pedestrian alley stretching from the shore to the top of the village. The third bedroom has two twin beds and also overlooks the pedestrian alley. The huge living room overlooks the marina and has a small balcony, two love seats, dining table, Tv and various side tables. If there is anything I can fault about this property, it would be the living room sofa seating. The loveseats are well worn and could use replacing with a sectional for more comfort. This is a small detail in the grand scheme of the home. The full kitchen is also large with all necessary appliances, cookware, and dishes. There is a large kitchen table. A gigantic main bathroom overlooks the marina. It has a claw foot tub, large double sink counter, shower, toilet and bidet. I was thrilled to find that the clothes dryer worked very well. The town is quiet during the winter with only a handful of restaurants open. The week of New Years is a particularly popular time for the shops and restaurants to be closed. Without a car we were somewhat limited with dining choices. We highly recommend the small charming Restaurant La Grignotere. The town is vibrant and alive during summer. There was a small market a short walk down the alley from the apartment. It had everything we needed though the hours of operation were unclear. The town of Ville Franche is wonderful to get lost and found. It feels very Italian, a bit like the Cinque Terre. The train station is a 10 minute walk from the apartment and offers inexpensive service to Monaco, Nice, Cannes, and Antibes. You need to take a bus to Eze from Monaco. We took the tram from Nice airport to the Nice port then took a taxi into Ville Franche. Our driver dropped us off at a mid hillside location that made transporting our baggage very easy on foot. It would We would recommend this apartment to anyone.
