Fabulous stay in Cannes!
Our 2 weeks in Cannes was one of the best holidays we have ever had! The apartment was fantastic - clean, well equipped and home from home. It was large enough for 6 people comfortably and has three bathrooms.
The location of the apartment is fantastic. We constantly marvelled at how it was located in the centre of everything but once inside it was so quiet you could not hear a thing! You walk out of the apartment literally into the middle of Cannes with the marina and casino across the road, the main shopping street next to the apartment, a supermarket in the street parallel and so many cafes and restaurants.
Before we arrived we had exchanged several emails with the owner Danny, who was so helpful with his suggestions. On arrival the apartment management greeted us and gave some wonderful tips on where to eat - just 5 mins walk from the apartment is a lovely quaint cobbled hilly street (old town) where the restaurants were reasonably priced for Cannes, delicious food and romantic setting but family friendly too.
Our party consisted of 13 year old twins, parent and grandparents. There was always something for everyone to do, the grandparents enjoyed daily strolls and coffees. The children loved the nearby beaches and shopping!
The train station is 5-10 mins walk from the apartment and its a 1 hour journey to Monte Carlo, approx 45 Euros for all six of us. There are other lovely stops along the way. Our favourite places to visit were St Paul de Vence and then Eze (which was recommended by the owner Danny). Both villages were so picturesque and Eze had breathtaking views with lovely cafes and restaurants and little shops to look round.
We had a car as we drove from the UK but if we return we would fly to Nice as there really was no need for a car once there, the rail and bus services were so good! If you do travel by car there is a car park nearby to the apartment and cost approx 100 Euros for 2 weeks.
As we stayed in the peak summer period it was exceptionally hot so the whole family found the apartment's location ideal as we could easily pop back during the day for a siesta or cool drink. The apartment was lovely and cool (also has aircon).
I can't recommend this apartment enough - don't hesitate, book today!
