“Great location, great views.”
Host met me at the entrance and drove my car in and found a car park. He then escorted me to the apartment and helped with my luggage. Great central location. Would happily stay again. Great views.

“Authentinc apartment in the heart of Saint Paul”
Beautifully placed in the heart of Saint Paul de Vence right behind the old church. It has a beautifull view over the valley all the way to the sea. The apartment has a lot of personality, and it is kept pretty original.

The apartment was very nice, spacious! The kitchen had all the utensils plus olive oil, salt and pepper, detergent for the dish washer, and the washing machine. The decoration of the apartment was very stylish and artistic, dedicated to the woman! The location was fantastic, and the morning walk around the city when there are not many people is priceless! The owner gave us a card for easy access with the car inside the town. Will gladly stay there again.

“Beautifully appointed relaxing apartment in the heart of the art”
A beautiful apartment with an artistic mind that is comfortable and accessible for your art break in one of the most extraordinary locations we have visited. The owner is local so it is important to respect checkin time or communicate if delayed. We clarified with the owner and all was well.

“we stayed a couple of days but I could have stayed for a week or a month and would have loved it.”
I don’t want to share this property because I love it there so much that I always want it available. it is ideal for an experience in Saint Paul de Vence. it is amazing and the apartment is so homey and well equipped.

“A beautiful and private place to stay”
Short version: we liked absolutely everything :) Most importantly, great hosts, cozy apartment and beautiful view over the rooftops and the valley. Long version: (1) Key handover was well-organized. We arrived to Saint-Paul-de-Vence by car. Our hosts kindly picked us up at the entrance to the old town and provided us with a card (special permission) allowing us to drive inside the town. While entering the town, please mind that every car is granted access individually, so wait until the columns disappear under the surface and the light is yellow (not red!). Don't automatically follow another car. Parking lots inside the old town cannot be reserved but we always managed to find one. The streets are quite narrow, a smaller car definitely being of advantage. (2) Location: The apartment has a great location - very close to the heart of the town and yet very private and quite. In fact, there's only one window close to the entrance where you may occasionally see tourists, the other two look over the rooftops and the valley. Further on the right-hand side, you can even recognize the coastline. The bathroom also has a window. The apartment is located on the 2nd floor of the building just behind the church. The building has no elevator. (3) Apartment: The apartment is bigger than it might seem on the pictures. It is individually decorated and feels cozy and private. The property is well-equipped with devices and has everything you need during the stay. Upon the arrival, we were asked to provide the caution (200 euros), which is reimbursed at the end of the stay, if everything is ok. This information is stated on booking.com. The only thing which to my knowledge was not mentioned during the booking and, thus, not included in the final price on booking.com is a cleaning fee of 50 euro (to be paid upon departure). (4) Last but not least, the hosts are very friendly and welcoming. They explained to us everything about the apartment and gave us tips about places to visit.
