Very clean. Modern . Amazing views. Ideal if you have car , less so without. Be prepared for lots of steep hills & steps. Easy access to Monaco by bus & , Nice. In the centre the train takes you further afield Cannes (hour) Antibes. Reliable and reasonable transport plus Ubers. Downside was Lack of support.
Lovely apartment with spectacular views over the bay.
Be prepared to walk the stairs or take taxis as the property is located high up from the old town. If it wasn't you wouldn't get the spectacular views! We enjoyed the exercise. Fully equipped apartment, everything was catered for. Lovely receiving two bottles of wine on arrival after a straight 20-hour drive from the UK. Nice touch. Safe garage parking was a big bonus and for guidance managed to get a Mercedes E-class estate inside.
Not a criticism but the master bedroom on-suite around the toilet area could do with some attention as ants had taken charge. A small detail.
Accidentally left a mobile phone on the day of departure - Dermont travelled specially from Nice while we waited so we could retrieve it. Very grateful to him for this.
Will use it again.
This is a beautiful apartment that anyone would be lucky to stay in during their holiday on the French Riviera. A spacious terrace with an amazing view, flawless A/C, an updated and well-equipped kitchen, and a working washer, what more could you ask for? Our family of 5 is already planning our next trip back. Thank you so much!
