Superb Apartment In Cannes With Magnificent View !

Hotel Description

Okay, so this place on Avenue Montrose caught me completely off guard – and I mean that in the best way possible. You know how sometimes you book something called a “superb apartment” and you’re bracing yourself for disappointment? Well, this actually lives up to the hype. The location in La Californie is honestly perfect if you want to feel like you’re staying in residential Cannes rather than tourist central. It’s this quiet, upscale neighborhood that locals love – you’re maybe a 10-minute walk down the hill to all the Croisette madness, but far enough up that you’re not dealing with the cruise ship crowds stumbling around at 2 AM.

The view they mention? Yeah, it’s legit magnificent. I spent way too much time on that terrace with my morning coffee, just staring out at the Mediterranean. You can actually see the Îles de Lérins on clear days, and the whole coastline stretches out in front of you. The apartment itself feels more like staying at a friend’s place than a rental – there’s real personality here, not that sterile hotel vibe you get sometimes. The kitchen’s actually functional (I made pasta one night instead of spending €30 on another mediocre tourist trap meal), and honestly, the whole setup just works. Sure, it’s a 3-star place, so don’t expect marble bathrooms or a concierge, but everything’s clean and comfortable. The 7.9 rating makes sense – it’s really good, just not absolutely perfect.

Here’s what I wish someone had told me before I arrived: parking can be a bit tricky on Avenue Montrose, especially during festival season when the whole city goes completely insane. But there’s usually something within a block or two if you’re patient. Also, if you’re planning to walk everywhere, just know it’s uphill coming back – not terrible, but after a long day wandering around Cannes, your legs will definitely feel it. The neighborhood gets pretty quiet after sunset, which I loved, but if you’re looking to stumble home from bars at 3 AM, you might want something closer to the action. What really sold me on this place was how it felt like a little escape from all the Cannes craziness while still being close enough to jump into it whenever you wanted. You get these gorgeous views, a peaceful setting, and you’re still just minutes from the beach, the Palais des Festivals, and all those ridiculously expensive boutiques on Rue d’Antibes.

Reviews

• Decent enough place in a location out of town. Really inconvenient booking and entry. – David from United Kingdom – 21 May 2024 (6/10)

  The right location for my needs. Out of town though.
  
  What could be improved: Inconvenient (unlike hotels) making you jump through a bunch of hoops beforehand – ID, security deposits, online questionnaires, specific time of arrival, meeting to hand over keys etc. Also this is a gated community and the security gates failed late at night. It was only by chance I was able to get in. You're on your own with stuff like that.

• Nice room but very badly managed – Hoult from United Kingdom – 15 September 2023 (4/10)

  Room was nice with good scenic views
  
  What could be improved: On my journey to the hotel I had driven from the uk and I was constantly pestered by the host asking when I was going to arrive, I had already given an arrival time. Also one of the lounger chairs was so badly deteriorated that it collapsed the first time I sat in it and I asked for a replacement only to be told "no chance" so we had not enough chairs to sit on. Also there was a problem with the toilet flush which was not fixed during the whole of my stay, it was very noisy through the night constantly filling up the cistern. Also there was no remote control for the TV so this rendered the TV useless. Also the shower tray was so dirty I had to use 2 litres of bleach to clean it. I reported all of these things to the host and nothing was done, in fact they didn't even reply to my messages. Very bad management!!!!!!!!

• Цена / качество – отличный вариант. Порадовала закрытая территория со своим сквером, большой балкон со столом и стул – Константин from Russia – 18 February 2024 (9/10)

  Было все необходимое для приготовления еды. Хороший интернет , очень мягкая удобная кровать.
  
  What could be improved: Постель была не по размеру кровати , одеяла и подушек. Пару раз встречались мелкие насекомые, но особого дискомфорта не приносило
