Holiday rentals on the Mediterranean coast

If your idea of a dream holiday consists of sandy beaches, warm turquoise waters and blue skies, a good book and people watching then you’ve chosen the right holiday destination on the French Riviera. If you like being close to the beach, then book a holiday rental in the Prestige residence Les Canissons with swimming pool and spa facilities just a 10-minute walk from the beach in Cavalaire sur Mer or right next to Saint Tropez, just 300m from the beach in the Prestige residence Le Clos Bonaventure in Gassin or why not in a family-friendly mobile home campsite with kids clubs and aquatic area in the Campsite Saint Aygulf Plage offering direct access to the beach in Saint Aygulf. Discover the famous calanques; spectacular creeks and coves located mainly between Marseille and Cassis where steep, rocky cliffs drop into the crystalline waters and ancient pine trees offer shady spots where can lie back and take a short nap. If you’re looking to treat yourself, all along the French Riviera you will find private beach clubs where you can hire sun loungers and parasols for the day. Order a cocktail, put on your straw hat and lie back and watch the world go by !

Book a holiday rental on the French Riviera and get ready for a feast for your 5 senses ! Listen to hypnotic cigales while sipping a cold drink on the terrace of a café in the shade of the plane trees in Sollies Toucas. Marvel at the colourful fishing boats bobbing in the harbour while you stroll along the waterfront in Cassis Cassis or the millionaire’s sailing boats and yachts in Saint Tropez. Taste the delicious regional culinary delights such as tasty pistou soup, fresh salad niçoise, mussels cooked in white wine, the famous bouillabaisse (fish stew) and if you still have some room, the rather rich tarte Tropezienne for dessert. Not forgetting fresh local produce from juicy green olives, mouth-watering melon, peaches and cherries to goat’s cheese from nearby farms. Enjoy the wonderful climate on the French Riviera, feel the hot sun on your skin and light sea breezes that cool you down. And last but not least, breath in the smell of oleander flowers, pretty white jasmine bushes flowing over a wall and not forgetting the wild herbs and flowers of the garrigue. The fragrant smells of thyme, rosemary and lavender will accompany you on a stroll along a footpath anywhere along the French Riviera.

Places not to be missed while on holiday on the French Riviera include the famous town of Nice. The capital of the French Riviera is packed with interesting, wonderful sites to visit and places to see. Take a stroll along the Promenade des Anglais, the beautiful beachfront walkway where everyone who is anyone just has to be seen ! Visit the old town in Nice, wander around the Cours Saleya market and make sure you try the local specialty, Socca, a crispy chickpea pancake. Book your holiday rental in our apart’hotel Palais Rossini and soak up the unique atmosphere in this charming 1930s hotel ideally located in the town centre. If you’re interested in rubbing shoulders with some celebrities, then a visit to the famous former fishing village of Saint Tropez made famous by the French actress Brigitte Bardot in the early 1960s is a must. Eating, drinking, shopping and people watching are the main activities here with a wide choice of luxury boutiques, classy restaurants and harbour front bars and cafes where you can watch the world go by. There are many interesting galleries here too for the art lovers among you. By booking a holiday rental in the Var on the French Riviera, you will be able to easily take a boat trip from Hyeres and visit the exquisite islands just off the coast. There are 3 islands : Porquerolles, a car-free island with exceptional beaches, Port Cros which is a natural park with some beautiful hiking trails to discover and Ile de Levant, once home to Cistercian monks and now mainly popular for its nudist camp and pretty beaches ! Stay in a stunning natural setting in the Prestige Residence Le Riviera right by the sea.
