About this property

Located in the picturesque heart of Antibes old town, this charming, traditional house is just a few steps from the stunning Picasso Museum, on a quiet cobbled walkway moments from both the shopping and café culture of the Provencal Market and the blue of the Mediterranean Sea.

Boasting a bright roof terrace with stunning sea views, this much loved family home has a classic, laid back style with traditional shuttered windows, exposed beams and Provencal detailing. A short walk from the beach, its traffic free setting makes it an ideal base from which to explore.

As you enter from the pretty, stone set street, the ground floor offers a charming open living and dining area, with a rustic feel and a newly renovated kitchen. A spacious first floor bedroom has a large double bed and an additional antique ‘four foot’ bed and separate shower room. The second floor is an airy double bedroom with classic French style and en suite bath/shower. The top floor holds a high set single bunk bed (right up over the stairs) and opens onto the sun filled roof terrace – perfect for al fresco dining and taking in the spectacular views of the Picasso Museum, Old Town and the sea. However, as with many houses in the historic quarter, sadly we have to say that it is not wheelchair friendly, nor suitable for those with mobility difficulties.

Intriguing old house in the very heart of old Antibes

The location was perfect, close to market, shops and museums. It's four flights from kitchen to roof terrace so the large basket provided was very useful!

Great place and amazing location!!

We loved our stay! Antibes has stolen our hearts! The house was great and the owner was quick to answer questions. I would rent again. The only thing that could have made the stay better was some decluttering. Many usable storage spaces are filled with “stuff” that could be organized and removed and there is an excess of furniture and decor that made it hard to move around. We were a family of 4. But we still enjoyed it very much and would rent again. So don’t let this scare you!!

Beautiful location and house

The house is small and snozzy. It’s perfectly located in the old town, but very quite in a side street. The Terrasse was great, the house was old but very nice (as expected from an old town house ) Everything was as described, we enjoyed our 1week vacation a lot. The keeper was very pleasant and explained everything very well. All in all a great stay and vacation.

Great Time in Antibes at our VRBO

Everything was as advertised. Place was spotless. Location was excellent. My third time in Antibes, and this is the first time that I will ensure my 4th trip we will be repeating our stay in this location. It was great, Celia was awesome to deal with, and everything was seamless. Thank's so much!

We’ll be back

Celia’s property is full of character and perfectly situated in the Old Town. We met Celia at check-in and she explained that the house has been their holiday home since the 1970’s. The house is compact but comfortable and very well equipped. Close to the market, cafes and shops. Try Nomad’s for great coffee. There’s a sandy beach down near the marina (5 mins walk). We would definitely love to come back

House that needs urgent renovations

We are sorry about hat house we lent for a week as the house is wonderfully located in the city center. The main problem with this house is that the property is totally neglected and besides of better cleaning service urgently needs renovations work inside. The both bathrooms are totally outdated and full of black mold on the walls. The toilet on the 1st floor is stinky and the other toilet is not able to flush correctly. Plaster is falling from the ceiling in the kitchen and from the walls in both bedrooms. We found dirty pieces of dish and the communication with tthe landlord was totally terrible. We did not recommend this property to be rented to anyone before it is renovated.

Great location

Wonderful old property, superb location on a beautiful street just a few steps from the sea wall. We ate dinner every night on the roof terrace and got fitter from climbing up and down the four fights of stairs to the kitchen. We were very grateful for the fans in every room and lots of other extra useful things e.g parasol, beach towels, ice blocks, bat & ball etc. Having a lock box for key was very convenient and the host was helpful and flexible with check in.

Enchanting

It is difficult to find the words to do justice to our experience in Celia’s home in old Antibes. We left only this morning so I can blame jet lag. The home is every bit as authentic, refined, and exquisite as described and pictured. When you step over the threshold you step into another world, another time. Understated elegance. I covet the mirrors! Every last one. When you step outside and turn right, you find the best bread maker in Antibes within a two minute walk. Turn left and you have the Mediterranean to your right, the Picasso museum and the cathedral straight ahead, and to the left, the heart of Antibes, the market. The steep steps do take some getting used to, but the reward! No, not the toned legs. The rooftop view! Enjoying a glass of rosé on the pretty terrasse with a clear view of the sea, with the golden glow of the setting sun warming the stone walls, seagulls swirling overhead - a peak experience.

Great stay in a beautiful location

We loved our stay in Antibes and fell in love with the town. My wife and our two small children enjoyed having Celia's home to use as our home base. Everything was exactly as we expected with two small exceptions. As Celia had warned us, the internet was not working and she provided a 4G hotspot. Unfortunately the service in the house is poor thanks to the stone construction, so the hotspot was not much help. Second, the bed on the second floor was uncomfortable to the point that my wife slept on the first floor with our kids. I understand bed preferences are quite personal, but my wife said she could feel the springs in the bed and woke the first morning with a very sore back. I personally was able to sleep on the bed, but it wasn't the most comfortable. Outside of those two complaints, the house was perfect. The city has even relocated the trash bins so we never heard early morning truck traffic as was described by other reviews. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Enchanting

Antibes is beautiful. It has all the charm you would expect from a medieval town but with a vibrant restaurant culture and lively entertainment. The house, is situated right at the heart of the old town with very quick and easy access to all the restaurants, beaches and the fabulous daily market. If traveling by car, you'll have easy access to Nice and Cannes and the surounding beaches. But don't worry about parking, as the town has invested in a huge underground car park which is pristine and only five minutes from the property. If your staying longer than a week, it's best to pay upfront as there is a considerable discount for longer stays. it's well worth it. Don't worry about air conditioning, it;s an old house with thick walls which keeps it cool during the heat of the day. The roof terace is very private, and has views to the bay and the Picasso Museum just 100m away. You feel you are the heart of a vibrant comunity. Booking was easy and the host is always quick to respond. There was a minor issue with a domestic appliance which was resolved within twelve hours, so you are well supported. The property has a charm reminiscent of a byegone age which in some ways is quixotic, but which nevertheless adds to its overall attraction. I would like to express my thanks to the hosts for their very kind hospitality.

Spot parfait... mais tout le processus manque un peu d'amour

Super quartier, proche de tout à Antibes, vue sur la mer de la terrasse en haut. Maison étroite sur 4 étages donc les escaliers servent beaucoup. Les consignes pour se rendre à la maison n'étaient pas bonnes (j'ai suggéré de les mettre à jour pour les prochaines fois) et les communications avec la gestionnaire étaient plutôt limitées. Quelques équipements ne fonctionnent pas dans la maison (prises de courant sur la terrasse, chauffe serviette et douchette dans la salle de bain du 2e, …), aucune tablette ni rangement dans la salle de bain au 2e près de la chambre qui a le grand lit (bizarrement la chambre avec le plus grand lit au 2e contient aussi un lit d’enfant, alors que l’autre chambre au 3e a une salle de bain mieux équipée – avec tablettes - et pas de 2e lit). Tous les rangements et tablettes de la maison sont pleins et ne peuvent pas être utilisés pour déposer nos choses (il y a beaucoup trop de décorations et d’autres articles superflus partout dans la maison, nous devions déposer nos achats dans les marches de l’escalier), même le lit de la mezzanine était plein. Quelques endroits dans la maison sont pratiquement inaccessibles si plus grand que 1,80 m. Des travaux de rénovation chez les voisins ont eu lieu toute la semaine de notre séjour à partir de 7h30 le matin, incluant fin de semaine et jour férié (pas la faute du propriétaire mais bon... tout est en pierre dans le quartier donc tous les travaux sont bruyants).

Fantastic rooftop views!

Wonderful homey place just off the Picasso museum square, ideally located to everything. Perfect for 2 couples or a family with a few kids. Really appreciated the abundance of towels, tea towels and even beach towels,beach umbrella and chairs- felt right at home. The roof top terrace is so wonderful to sit at the end of the day and have a drink and watch the boats go by- even some magical sunsets! Great water pressure in the showers and lots of hot water. Area felt completely safe and secure. Host very responsive and helpful-merci beaucoup!! xox

About the host

Hosted by Celia Greetham

The house has been a much loved family retreat for many, many years. It has been enjoyed by generations of family and friends and although we have recently renovated areas like the kitchen we are keen to retain its character and charm and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

The house is a great mix – a few steps from the Picasso museum and close to the bustling Provencal Market, beaches, restaurants, cafés,
nightlife and amenities of Old Antibes, and yet it traffic free setting and picturesque provencal style make it feel like a real escape in the centre of the Old Town.

What makes this property unique

The property is accessed via a pretty cobbled lane in an area that has been pedestrianised to retain its charm. Guests are permitted special access to unload their taxi but beyond this the street remains a car free haven.
