Tourist Information ~ South France ~ French Riviera ~ South France ~ Bliss Villefranche Rental Apartment
This apartment is all about being on the water, being at the beach and enjoying all that beach life has to offer. This apartment is perfect for people who love the water and love the beach. It is dreamily romantic in any season, restorative, and truly a beach get-away that regenerates the body and mind. Although the apartment is in a peaceful location, it is still at the heart of everything - located at the beach end of the waterfront quai of Villefranche, right on the edge of the Old Town, with all the restaurants, shops, and conveniences just a few steps away.
"…A great escape, the ultimate beach pad, hypnotic relaxation, 'a room of one's own', a blur of pleasure" - those are some of the statements we hear about this beachfront blissful accommodation. Whether looking for a romantic beach holiday, or a month or two to work on a personal project, or just revive and reflect, this studio rental is a special little escape, a perfect place to enjoy sunshine and a healthy lifestyle. If you like cozy, intimate, superbly located places with really amazing views - plus all the other things we just mentioned - you will love this apartment.
STUDIO APARTMENT FOR RENT
Although a studio, we have used the space wisely. Having grown up on boats, we know how to make every centimeter count.
When you enter the apartment you are stunned by the magnificent view from the 2.20 meters picture window (7 foot wide that slides into the wall so disappears). You see the entire Bay of Villefranche - it embraces you. Plus all the magnificent boats that pay it a visit as it is reputed to be one of the five most beautiful bays in the world. You feel you will walk from the apartment right into the sea. The view dominates the room - no matter what you are doing: sitting on the sofa, sleeping, reading, cooking, doing a little computer work at the desk. It feels like nothing separates you from the sea.
The apartment is just over 25 square meters (or 270 square feet), although the large window and expansive view of the Bay of Villefranche, plus the outside garden certainly make the apartment feel much larger.
And you don't see a bed. The bed is conveniently folded away into the wall, although it is a proper bed from a bed store. What you see and feel in the room is an airy and spacious living area: kitchenette, sitting area with sofa for two (with reading lights), coffee table, a lovely armoire (which houses a good sized flat screen TV with SKY and French TV, iPod music system, DVD, and storage for kitchen items). In addition, you see a lovely built in set of cupboards and drawers for clothing and a desk (that folds up) and features broadband wireless Internet DSL. The décor of the apartment is open, airy and bright.
Given that the spectacular sea view dominates the room, we have incorporated various colors of sea blue and turquoise right into the apartment. We have also included beautiful art from the area, with two important pieces from Nani Eckert, one of Villefranche's most famous artists. The hardwood floors are lovely with a beautiful Persian carpet. We hope that everywhere you look in the apartment, there is something beautiful to look at, as well as offering the comfort and convenience you would expect.
There is a kitchenette that is very functional and great for cooking for two - and with an amazing view. Even for a kitchenette, it is really functional (again, that boat experience) and pretty. Featuring top of the line Miele cooktop (2 burner) and combination microwave / oven / grill, stone counter tops, good size sink and a reasonable amount of storage for pots and pans and food supplies. And the view is terrific - you are at the sea's edge while cooking.
Private landscaped garden
You enter the apartment through a private, landscaped garden (versus an enclosed shared hallway). Three of the 6 apartments in this charming building share parts of this garden. This apartment has its own private garden area, filled with beautiful flowering plants. There is a table and chairs for sitting out in the the garden or for storing beach chairs or hanging out your laundry (we have the washing machine and clothes line out in the garden area, plus a locked storage closet for suitcases and other items). Typically you leave the front door open so the garden comes in on one side and the sea on the other. Both sides receive sun, both are private, and both offer something different to enjoy. It is probably this openness of space that makes the apartment so special - the spectacular view to one side and the intimate, pretty garden on the other.
The apartment has air conditioning.
RENTAL ACCOMMODATION FOR 2 PEOPLE
This is a studio apartment - that means for 1 or 2. The bed is a large double bed, from a bed store, in French called an amoire-lit. A special hinge and cabinet enables you to easily pull down or lift up the bed so that it disappears during the day, and is a luxurious bed and romantic bedroom at night, complete with night stand for both sides of the bed and halogen bedside reading lights. Given the way the bed is designed, you do not need to remove the bedding to close up the bed. Just make the bed, and close it up. It is not like a sofa bed. It is a real bed, real mattress, real box spring. There is a bathroom with a large stall shower, good size sink, plenty of storage space for toilettries, good lighting, and a lovely private window.
VILLEFRANCHE TOURIST INFORMATION
Well first off, you are RIGHT AT THE BEACH! This is a great beach pad. Walk down your garden steps, across the street, and you are in the sand. Take a morning swim before people arrive and the sea is like glass. Or take an evening swim, when the sunset is in full glow along Cap Ferrat. Or bake in the hot summer sun. In the winter you also enjoy the beach as it faces south (as does the apartment) and gets full sun all day. But there is so much to do in the area, and in Villefranche. Within Villefranche, there are many beautiful and healthy walks and a delightful, old world village to explore.
There are numerous restaurants open year round. You are a 20 minute walk to the village of St. Jean Cap Ferrat and Beaulieu sur Mer. You are a 3 minute walk to the train station where you can visit Nice, Monaco, Antibes, Cannes, Juan les Pins and many other places in just minutes. Monaco is 10 minutes away on train; Nice 5. You do not need a car. The Riviera is a great place for sites - too many to list. But it is also a great place to relax and just soak up the sun and the lifestyle that is so relaxing and regenerating not to mention healthy (even with all the great and inexpensive wine).
How to get to Villefranche:
Nice Cote d'Azur International Airport is a great airport. France's second largest, yet it feels small and is easy to get around. It is approximately 10 or 12 kilometers from Villefranche. A Villefranche taxi will cost 50 euros and takes approximately 30 minutes (or less). You can also take an airport bus to Nice train or bus station and then either a bus or train to Villefranche. This takes a bit longer.
