About this property

Blue Riviera: a splendid beachfront 1-bedroom apt w/stunning view

Catherine or Philippe will welcome you upon appointment any day of the week so that you avoid the usual Saturday traffic jams in France (and/or enjoy better airfares).

Although we are pretty flexible, we simply ask that you check-in between 4-8pm.

The Blue Riviera 1-Bd apartment is located in the heart of Menton, France a small, lovely and quiet city on the famous French Riviera, between mountains and the Mediterranean sea, between Monaco (7 miles) and the Italian border (3 miles).

Conveniently located, you are within walking distance to shops & entertainment, the old historic district, the Cocteau Museum and the historic Market where you can purchase fresh fruits & vegetables every morning.

This non-smoking apartment is on the 3rd and last floor of a bourgeois building (w/lift) dated from the “Belle Epoque” period. From the balcony, don’t miss the beautiful sunrises and sunsets! Being on the top level of #1652 Promenade du Soleil provides you with unequaled views of the shore, the Promenade and its palm trees.

The features of the blue Riviera apt are:

- a separate bedroom (140 cm large bed ).
To help you travel light, bed linens and shower towels are provided. During the season, beach towels are also provided. Professional cleaning fees will be asked for the linen (upon your arrival so you do not pay taxes on this amount). 2025 fare: €80, cash only.

- a small but well equipped kitchen

- a livingroom with double exposure: South & West

- Air conditionning to cool down from the Summer heat

- WiFi (free of charge) to keep contact with your loved ones during your stay.

- Parking (upon availabilities & reservation, do not hesitate to inquire about the fees that apply)

Walk across the street and dip your feet in the warm and turquoise-blue Mediterranean waters! Holidays start here!

Wonderful Month in Menton

Property was well located across the road from the beach and close to shops restaurants and market. The free commuter bus stop is across the road and the No 600 bus was a short walk Airport bus No 80 is also a short walk.

Menton - a slice of Paradise!

This property met all our expectations, the location just a short walk from the old town and a daily fresh produce market made it so convenient not to mention the exceptional view over the Med from our balcony and two aspect windows. The apartment was light, bright, clean and functional and equipped with all we needed for our two week stay. We must also mention the exceptional attention and service provided by Catherine, she was a real gem and we appreciate very much all she did for us during our stay

Magnifique Menton

As soon as you walk into the living room the first thing you notice is the amount of natural light that fills the room and the views. Directly on Promenade Du Soleil we enjoyed sitting on the balcony with a glass of rose (generously provided by the hosts) watching the world go by. The apartment was clean and provided all necessary amenities for our stay. It was spacious for our family of four with very comfortable sofa beds. Very central, an excellent location directly across from the pebble beach or a short walk to the sandy beach. Close to restaurants and supermarkets too. As our children are learning Italian we couldn’t resist a day trip to Italy by train. We also caught the local bus to Nice for the day. Catherine was a pleasure to deal with from the moment we first began the booking process. Thank you for such a welcoming and memorable stay. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

We loved it

We loved our stay in Menton. The apartment was perfect for us; it was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Catherine and Philippe were excellent hosts. We liked being able to walk to restaurants and shops. Catherine recommended JR Bistronomie and L’Orangerie and both restaurants were excellent. We also found and loved Dogs and Coffee and Pizzeria 430. Several nights we picked up fresh food at the market down the street and made our own dinner. Favorite of all was having coffee on the balcony every morning overlooking the beautiful blue water. Perfect!

A Great Apartment

The location is first class with a south sea view to see sunrise as well as a west view to see the sunset. Even in January, with the balcony doors open the sun and warmth are exceptional.With the exception of a washing machine for our three week stay the apartment had everything we needed.

Good as it gets!

Another lovely stay at our favorite spot in Menton. It’s also the “restaurant with the best views,” in our opinion, where you can sample the fresh local produce from the market and Atelier Boulanger. We made the climb up to the monastery, on Catherine’s suggestion, and the view was amazing. We would definitely come again at this time of year. Thanks again to hosts Catherine and Philippe!

Memorable New Year's in Menton

New Year's in Menton was delightful!! The New Year's Eve parade was beautiful. Dining was delicious, and day trips to local sights, including Monaco, were easily accessible and fun! The oceanfront Blue Riviera apartment with breathtaking views of the coastline provided the perfect setting for our holiday visit. Catherine met us at the apartment and personally gave us all the information we needed to enjoy our stay. She was extremely cordial and responsive whenever we needed help, and Philippe left a bottle of wine for us! We will definitely return to Menton, if possible, next year.

Great apartment, excellent location

Lovely top floor apartment, light and airy and peaceful, even though it was right in the middle of town. Kitchen was very small, but had everything you needed. Lovely views of the beach from the living room, lovely to sit out on the on the balcony and watch the world go by. Very handy for shops, bars and restaurants.

A little it of heaven

A week in this heavenly little home by the sea was just not enough. We loved every day of our stay here. Our hosts seemed to cover everything and were available to us if we needed anything else. The spacious living room with a walk out to the balcony was a great place to unwind after a day touring this adorable city. The little kitchen was just enough to prepare a few meals and the bedroom held everything we brought with us. Comfy mattress, too! So, no complaints here. Just wish it were closer and I would travel back there again and again.

We’ll be back!

Airy apartment with lovely views over the Mediterranean. It had everything we needed for a relaxing week’s vacation. There is no need for a car as restaurants and shops are close by and plenty of day trips are an easy bus or train ride away. The Moovit app is a great help to plan a route. The Atelier Boulanger has delicious bread and patisserie (perhaps too good!). Catherine and Phillipe are very knowledgeable hosts and provided a detailed guide book of local attractions.

About the host

Hosted by Catherine & Philippe

Host profile image
My husband and I are both from France. We have both lived in different places (throughout France for Philippe and in the USA for Catherine) before we met. We have decided to settle our family in Menton as Philippe is a mountains lover and I love warm sea water much better! Where else in the world can we bathe in warm turquoise sea water and look at the mountains? Menton is definitely the place!

Why they chose this property

We love the Blue Riviera Apartment because of its location. It is within walking distance to everything, in a small and lovely city full of History, between Monaco and Italy, in a charming building.
It's a gift to wake up in the morning, take a cup of coffee out to the balcony and watch the sun rises on the horizon or enjoy a glass of wine (French, of course!) or homemade lemonade (with Menton's famous lemons) sitting on the balcony, listening to the waves and watching palms trees and the turquoise blue Mediterranean.
