A little 'trouvaille' on the Mediterranean coast, this small but for two persons comfortable appartment (hopefully you will be staying in the garden or or the terrace enjoying the good weather the largest part of the time anyhow) is located in the 'villa' part of town, next to the historical quarter of Menton. Looking at the left you will see the gorgeous coastline of Italy, looking to the right you see the postcard image of the old town. Incredible the waking up -having slept with the gardens doors open- seeing the Mediterranean straight from your bed. We had a nightingale singing in the olive tree in front of the house a few times. The setting is private (my opinion as a city person), even though apartment is located on the first floor of a villa and you are aware of each others existence. Friendly owner. The only minus I found (July 2010) was the length of the week rent: arrival on Saturday after six in the evening, and departure the next Saturday at ten in the morning (which didn't quite feel like a weeks rent). But all in all, looking back on a wonderful, romantic, laid back week, in the comfort of modern village city life (shops, transport etc), but at the same time with enough privacy away from it all to get really well rested.
