This contemporary and stylish apartment is perfect for small families seeking an utterly relaxing break on the Côte d'Azur. After an extra-long slumber in hotel-quality beds, awaken your senses with a dip in the private pool. Spend early afternoons playing petanque in the garden or soaking up the sunshine from a lounger as the appointed chef of your group prepares a salade niçoise in the minimalist kitchen. When you’re ready to explore, the heart of Old Nice is a ten-minute drive from your front door. Weave through the Belle Époque streets, brush up on your art history knowledge in the Matisse Museum and stroll along the romantic Promenade des Anglais, stopping every now and again to dip into the glittering Mediterranean. Just before dusk falls, find a spot on the pebbles of Ponchettes Beach to watch a deep red sunset blaze over the water.
