We spent a week here enjoying Antibes and it's surrounds. This house is a charming base from which to do this. There are so many great things about it, it's hard to know where to start!
The location is superb. Within a couple of minutes walk you can be shopping the fabulous Provençal market, sipping a coffee or beer in a sidewalk cafe, picking up a great bottle of wine for dinner, or standing on the sea wall looking out at the waves.
The house is delightful, charmingly decorated throughout, comfortable and well equipped for gourmet cooking amazing meals with your market purchases. The roof terrace with its great views and comfortable seating is a great escape at the end of the day to relax in.
Antibes itself is great walking town, you really don't need a car here, and there is lots to do in walking range, or you can take the "petit train" to Juan-les-Pins for a change of scene. You'll be getting plenty of exercise between strolling around, and climbing the stairs of this house - from the basement to the roof terrace you'll be climbing five flights of stairs!
Finally, Ivan was a great host to us. He greeted us on arrival and made us feel very welcome, with some thoughtful gifts, and lots of help.
