Maxime By Terry’s Homes

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed at a lot of places in Cannes over the years, and honestly? Maxime By Terry’s Homes caught me completely off guard. When you first walk up to 8 Rue des Frères Pradignac, it doesn’t scream luxury hotel – it’s tucked into this quiet residential street that most tourists never discover. But that’s actually what makes it brilliant. You’re literally a three-minute walk from all the Croisette madness, yet when you close your door at night, you hear… nothing. Well, maybe some distant laughter from the café terraces, but none of that constant traffic noise that drives you insane at the bigger hotels.

The whole place feels more like staying at your incredibly stylish French friend’s apartment than a traditional hotel. Terry’s team – and I mean this in the best way – treats you like family from the moment you arrive. They remember your name, your coffee preference, that thing you mentioned about needing restaurant recommendations away from the tourist traps. The rooms themselves are what I’d call “effortlessly chic” – you know, that French way of making everything look perfectly put-together without trying too hard. The beds are ridiculously comfortable (I’m talking sink-in-and-disappear comfortable), and the bathrooms have those rainfall showers that actually work properly, unlike half the places I’ve been to. What really got me though was the attention to detail… fresh flowers that aren’t just for show, books you’d actually want to read, and windows that open properly so you can get that Mediterranean breeze flowing through.

Here’s what you need to know practically speaking – parking can be tricky in this part of town, but they’ll sort you out with options beforehand if you ask. The neighborhood comes alive around 7 PM when locals start their evening routines, but it quiets down by 11, which is perfect if you’re planning to actually sleep (revolutionary concept, I know). During festival season, book way ahead because people who discover this place tend to come back year after year. The staff speaks excellent English, but honestly, brushing up on your basic French pleasantries goes a long way here – it’s that kind of place where small gestures matter. I’ve recommended Maxime to probably a dozen friends now, and every single one has thanked me afterward. It’s got that rare combination of genuine warmth and sophisticated comfort that makes you want to extend your stay… which I may have done twice now.

Reviews

  This is the best accommodation I’ve ever stayed in. From the warm welcoming of Terry and Carole to the space offered. The apartment was super clean and in the middle of Cannes where the Croisette is few feet away.
  I will come definitely to this apartment next time I visit Cannes.
