Waterfront holiday rentals in Villefranche-sur-Mer

View from the balcony is the star of this listing! Peaceful location with walking access to the town center. It’s also located right next to stairs that take you down to the coastline trail from Villefranche to Nice. We had a great stay!

This apartment was, by far, the most incredible Airbnb rental we have ever rented. We are seasoned travelers, and the serenity and views from this flat, though in a bustling area, were more breathtaking and peaceful than we ever imagined. Our goal is always to find the best view and this did not disappoint —you will not want to leave (even for dinner)! This is the premier location in Nice to be near the old town area, but also closest to the sea. Having three balconies allows you to bring the outside in, but you are high enough from the street that the traffic never posed an issue; I napped in the living room in the afternoon sun while being lulled by the sound of the waves below. It’s a memory I will always cherish. The bedroom is on the other side of the apartment, making for a very peaceful sleep. This apartment is top of the line in finishes and amenities—the kitchen was fully stocked (but who wants to cook on vacation?). Leo and Romain were always responsive! Book this flat!

We only stayed one night but wished we had stayed longer. Great place, great area. Walking distance to beautiful rocky beaches and good restaurants. Elsa and Julien were communicative, responsive, and accommodating.

We liked the location and the lovely place has all you need to have a great stay and enjoying Villefranche. Many thanks again.

Book it now! We were two couples for three nights and we all agree it was one of the best Airbnb’s we have ever experienced! Consider yourself extremely fortunate to have found this listing, and book without any hesitation. The setting is gorgeous, and it’s very walkable to restaurants, the city center, and nearby sights. The view from the balconies over the water to the town and mountains beyond is world class. The interior is flawless, with all furnishings and amenities in excellent shape and style. The communication with the owners is superior, every step of the way. All questions/concerns were handled very quickly and professionally. Even with some street work being done around the marina, our host did everything possible to make our stay the best it could be. Five stars is not enough, the apartment and the hosts are incredible! I could go on, but I think you have the picture. (By the way, we’ve stayed in well over 50 Airbnb’s around the world, benefit from our experience.)

Teresa is a lovely host. We have stayed here many times and love it. The apartment is in such a great location and Teresa makes the whole process easy. She is very personable and easy to communicate with.

We loved our stay!!! Thank you so much!!!!!

Sabrina’s place in Villefranche-sir-mer is a great find in a beautiful town. The apartment is on a quiet street and about a ten minute walk from the train station and main bus stop. The apartment does not have a view as such, but there is a lovely small balcony overlooking an adjacent street and right next to a church. Villefranche is built on a hill rising up from the bay and port, so many of the streets are steep and with lots of steps. On our arrival we needed some provisions; milk, bread etc. , and the only supermarket we could find was a 30 minute walk uphill above the town. Thankfully a small convenience store opened up after the weekend, which was only 2 minutes from the apartment. Both myself and my husband felt very comfortable in the apartment which was spotlessly clean. The bed is situated on a mezzanine level which requires some degree of care when ascending and descending, but it wasn’t a big issue.

This apartment is a beautiful place to stay. It met all of our expectations. It has beautiful view from the top floor. It is close to nearby restaurants and the local market (the market is awesome). We would recommend this apartment to anyone.

We (family with three generations) enjoyed a great week at the magnificent villa Mas Mirabelle. A beautiful house with an amazing view. A big thank you to Marie & Dominique who were excellent and very caring hosts and made us feel very welcome.

We loved our stay - Svetlana was a warm and helpful host who even picked us up from the train due to an unwieldy bag. She left us with wine and snacks, which eased us right into this waterfront location. The home is hundreds of years old and has some quirks (start doing stairs NOW!), but the views can’t be beat and the beds are SO comfortable. The living room is very nicely done, as is the kitchen. The master bedroom is very cozy, with a chaise to recline on and watch the super yachts go by. Great restaurants within a few minutes’ walk, the Marché in 3 minutes away…it’s a magical location. We hope to return not just to Antibes, but to this home.

The very amiable owner greeted us and welcomed us to his very special home. It’s beautifully appointed, cozy and comfortable. The setting is spectacular! The pool is inviting. It’s a wonderful place to unwind. The views of the Mediterranean and mountains is worth every penny!

We had a great time at Rutger’s place, enjoying a lovely welcome from the host himself which was very welcome after a long drive from the UK🍷 We loved the outstanding views from the property and the close proximity to Monaco for our visit to the Grand Prix. As with all properties in this area, we enjoyed(?) the work out provided by the slopes and hills. We would happily stay in this great family home again. Thank you Rutger and Elaine for your great communication and hosting.

Out of all places I have stayed in, this was by far one of the top. It was so beautiful with such a great location to all the amazing sites. This was our first time in the south of France (traveling with a small child) and wanted to stay somewhere beautiful, central and quiet. This was definitely THE place. First I cannot describe how beautiful the house was and it had the most lovely sea view, it was so tranquil. Nathalie was a wonderful host and made us feel so welcome. The nearest sandy beach was about 5-10 min away in either direction. It is 3-5 walk to old town. 10-15min walk to the train station. Antibes is gorgeous and has amazing food/shopping/anything you want. We bought a 7day train pass and went to most of the other local villes and beaches. We had a fabulous vacation and were sad to leave. We would come back and rent this place again in a heart beat! Merci pour tout Nathalie!!!

We loved our stay, perfect for our large family

It’s rare that somewhere that looks amazing lives up to the hype! Maison Regina does! Big time! From being met at our cab there ( you’ll be walking in if it’s after 1pm as pedestrianised) by the managing agent Alice, and given the lowdown on how everything worked, to the utter fabulousness of our home for the next 2 weeks. The house was larger than we expected, those town houses look teeny from outside, to the appointments-strong hot showers, tv that’s a moving picture gallery, nespresso machine so good I’ve just bought the same model for my home, to the aircon that I’m not normally a fan of but a bonus in hot weather. The roof terrace is the star! We had meals there looking out to sea at the moored superyachts and sailing regattas from morn to dusk, counted the EasyJet planes coming in every few minutes ( not a disruptive noise) and gave names to the friendly local seagulls. Magic! And 200 restaurants and cafes within a 10 minute walk.

I cannot thank Xavier enough for the stay! This space is absolutely incredible, and is exactly as shown in the photos. It’s in an ideal location and is central to everything you’d want to see and do in Cannes! Not to mention , the building itself is gorgeous. Xavier also provides ample recommendations, and is super responsive and flexible with the check in/ check out process. If I’m ever back in Cannes, I will be staying here again for sure! Highly recommended anyone books this spot for your next trip to Cannes ☺️

We had a fantastic stay! 3 minutes to the beach and 3 minutes to Carnoles train station - couldn’t be better located. Also right in front of a great local restaurant Le Piccadilly. Hosts were friendly and very responsive and even gifted us with welcome drinks. Would stay here again next time I visit cote d’azur!

We really enjoyed our stay and the views were spectacular. Very helpful host who went out of her way to sort out an issue for us when we lost our way back to the apartment on our first night there! Marie Lawrence and her support team were wonderful and we are very grateful.

Such a beautiful house and location. The owner was so nice and answered so fast!

Luxurious apartment with incredibly beautiful sea view. The apartment included everything we needed for a perfect holiday; beach very close as well as grocery stores and a good boulangerie. There is a quite busy street near the apartment but that didn't bother us and we slept very well. Would love to return to this beautiful place.

Excellent accommodation. Great view. nice bedding.

Great accommodation in Nice. In the city centre, great location. Very clean and comfortable. Netflix was available. The bathroom was clean and nice. Everything was perfect, we totally recommend!

Thank you Han! What an exceptional location and experience staying at your place! Great terrace looking over the sea. Would highly recommend. Han was very responsive and very very helpful! Thnk yoh a million times over ! What a treat :)
