A relaxing winter break

A very comfortable apartment with a great view of the Bay of Villefranche. Out of season it is well-situated to travel to other Côte d'Azure locations and Italy.

Gorgeous View!

Beautiful space just as pictured with great service from our host and Donna who greeted us on arrival. The location is extremely convenient to catch the train for exploring the Riviera. We really enjoyed the patio and the views are amazing!

Fantastic location in a great property

Well designed, well maintained. This is a great location on the coast for access to the TER. Easy to get on/off/up/down the coast. Ville Franche is small but packed with great restaurants. Easy walk to a LOT. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful place!

I love this apartment so much! This was my second time staying here - for a month each time. My favorite parts are the balcony, the view, and the location. But the apartment itself is great too. Please see my long review from September 2022 for more details.

Wow!

We were blown away at the amazing views of the sea from the family room and master bedroom. There is a spacious porch as well where you can sit and watch the water. The apartment is very spacious and clean. Very functional and comfortable. We want to go back! Loved our stay here !

Lovely place to stay

We really enjoyed our time at the apartment. It was very comfortable and the view is awesome. The train noise wasn't really a problem and it was great to be so close to the station. Donna was very responsive and helpful. We would love to be able to stay there again.

French Riviera Magnifique!

The view was breathtaking!! Loved sitting on the terrace over looking the port in Ville France sur mer. Perfect location to get to the gorges & all the cities along the Riviera. Julie who met us was wonderful at helping us get around. The pool was beautiful but a bit cool for swimming.

Perfect Riviera location - quaint, quiet and beautiful!

We stayed three nights and enjoyed everything about this place. The beds are comfortable, the patio roomy with plenty of seating and the most magnificent view of the sea. The biggest bonus for us was the train station literally in front of us for easy travel to Monte Carlo and Nice. The train noise is minimal. The birds were louder than the trains. 😂 I even slept on the patio couch one night to listen to the ocean.

Spacious Well Located Apartment with Amazing View

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this apartment and hope to return someday. Apartment was well laid out for 2 couples or a family. Location was excellent to get to train, beach and restaurants. Villefranche is an excellent homebase to explore the neighbouring cities of the Cote d'Azur. My most memorable feature of the apartment is the Amazing view of the water and town from the spacious balcony. We loved sitting on the balcony where we spent most of our time when we weren't exploring Villefranche and the Cote d'Azur. Would highly recommend this apartment.

Excellent!

This was our third stay at Villefranche Villa and we loved it as before. Presentation is perfect, the pantry is very well stocked which is a real bonus. All neat, tidy and clean and with such a stunning view, all was terrific. We do hope to return next year. Donna is so helpful, she's a delight. Thank you Shelton and Donna. Kind regards, Christine

Breathtaking View and Beautiful apartment

This was the perfect weekend get-away after a busy week in Barcelona with our daughter. The apartment is perfectly appointed! The beds were big and comfortable, bathrooms were nice and clean. We spent a lot of time on the balcony overlooking the beautiful view of the sea. We arrived early and were promptly met by the property manager, we were allowed to drop our bags off while the unit was cleaned. The unit is just above the train station but the trains didn't bother us at all, and it was really convenient when we wanted to travel into Nice or Monaco. The town is so quaint and we really enjoyed the restaurants and shops. 10/10 trip!

Great experience

Stayed here with our infant, and had a very good experience. The property manager, Donna, was awesome. She made the check in and out process very easy and made sure we had a crib and necessary adapters for our crib. Location is great with a two min walk to the beach and 5 min walk to town. Only negative is proximity to the train station, which does create some noticeable noise; however, we were largely able to drown it out with a noise machine.

Lovely apartment

This is a lovely modern apartment with fantastic view of the Sea. I could sit on the balcony forever... and the master bedroom also shares the balcony overlooking the Sea. The apartment is bright and well-designed. It is so convenient for the train or all the restaurants in the old ville, which is the heart of the charming town. There is ample dressers and closets. The only caution is that the second bath is a bit small. I highly recommend this apartment, but all of Villefranche requires able walkers.

Really excellent apartment!

This is a very nicely modernised apartment with two good sized bedrooms (with very comfortable beds) and two bathrooms. it is very well equipped and reasonably priced. In fact, the property is better than it looks in the pictures as pictures/mirrors and new outdoor furniture on the balcony have been added.It is a short stroll into town where we bought all we needed from the Casino mini-mart. Plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from too, Le Mayssa was the best place to eat for us. You are next to the train station which is handy although the train do start quite early in the morning. It didn't bother us though. Excellent feedback from the owner and property manager. Overall 10/10!

Wonderful View

This was our fifth time in Ville Franche and Sheldon’s place definitely had the best view out of all of our stays. We were initially concerned about the train but it was quite quiet. The location was great, close to the beach and restaurants. The only challenge was parking but we really just walked everywhere so not a big deal. The kitchen is well stocked and the clothing washer and dishwashers were very nice to have. The balcony was our favourite spot as the view is spectacular and keeps us coming back. We recommend this apartment as it is very quiet and away from the town noise. There is beautiful greenery with purple irises and a small stream right next door so at night and early morning the sounds of waves and the small stream are very relaxing. We will be back!!

You won’t find a better view!

The apartment has a view that is perfection. There was plenty of space inside for the 3 of us that stayed, but most of our time was spent outside on the balcony. Restaurants, shopping, and train are all in walking distance, and there was no trouble getting an Uber to pick us up as well. Donna the property manager was patiently waiting for us at the property after our plane arrival was an hour late. She walked us through the property and gave us some information on the area. We were disappointed that there was not a dryer as advertised. There is a washer and a drying rack on the porch. This wasn’t a big deal overall, but did not allow us the opportunity to wash towels if needed as minimal were provided. Also the coffee machine is an espresso machine and I had no idea how to use it or the type of coffee that should be used. Instructions may help. Overall we felt safe and comfortable! Thank you for letting us enjoy the property.

Absolutely wonderful!

This property was perfect for my four week stay. The pictures and descriptions just can't do it justice. Everything about it was perfect - it was clean, comfortable, beautiful, and safe. It has all the amenities to make it feel like a real home. The kitchen is fully stocked, the appliances are top notch, there is great water pressure, there is plenty of storage space, the towels and linens are good quality, ... And of course the highlight is the outdoor space - the terrace furniture is perfect with a table and chairs plus a sitting area with sofa, chairs, and coffee table. Not to mention the view!! There were two nights while I was there when there were fireworks out on Cap Ferrat and it was incredibly beautiful to see those over the water. One thing that I loved was being so close to the beach - I could get home from class, change, and be in the sea in 10 minutes! The location was great - it is close to old town Villefranche and you can jump on the train and be in Nice in less than 15 minutes. You can get to a good size grocery store just 10 minutes after leaving the apartment. I was attending Institut de Francais while I was there and it's about a 20 minute walk from the apartment and part of it is uphill but it was a great way to start and end the day. I would definitely do it again (and hope to!!). I was there alone most of the time and I felt totally safe at the apartment. The apartment building stays locked, the apartment double locks, and the terrace is totally separate from others. The last thing I will mention is that the management team was great - they responded to messages immediately and were very easy to work with. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! I really didn't want to leave and I hope to return soon!

Critical details not disclosed

I would have given this VRBO an average to slightly above average rating. I gave it a low rating because the renter did not disclose to us that there was construction going on right below our deck weekdays until 11:30 at night. Trucks, backhoes, drilling, yelling. Between this and constant trains, it greatly took away from the relaxing vibe that was being sold. When we contacted the owner, his answer was “get earplugs”. He said it was out of his control. Probably true but we definitely didn’t get the experience we paid for. Lack of peace. Lack of sleep. Not impressed with the owner.

Construction not disclosed

Property itself was nice. However, we were very disappointed that it was not disclosed that there would be overnight (10 Pm to 5 AM)construction going on at the train station located in front of the apartment. We attempted to respectfully communicate with property manager on first night and she didn’t respond until the end of our 4 nights stay. There was also daytime construction as well but that was less bothering. There was zero attempt to remedy or compensate for our less less comfortable stay. Was told that this construction took them by surprise but there was no compensatory action or offer extended.
