From the moment we arrived we felt at home. The apartment had everything we needed and is nice and spacious. Patricia gave us a thorough briefing and everything worked. One of our main concerns always is safety and we felt very relaxed and secure there.
When you are in the apartment, looking out, it feels like being on a cruise ship, with the Mediterranean stretched out to the horizon; the view is stunning. We watched sunrises and sunsets.
When out on the balcony there is one main road below, with 2 lanes in each direction and they are quite busy. The double glazing does mean that you can shut out the noise, but when you are out on the balcony it is there. You have the sound of traffic mixed with the sound of the sea.
Saying that, the busyness of life in Cagnes-sur-Mer is on your doorstep. From the runners, to cyclists, to people walking, on the promenade and on the beach, it is fun and great for people watching.
The location is quite perfect. The beach is directly across the street, CAP 3000 is a lovely walk (very large shopping mall), and Geant the great big supermarket is also just down the road and walkable. And, a bakery a few doors down.
We had a car and the parking spot was great. For the first time we used the car less because of the great location.
We had a wonderful break and the owners made it all easy for us.
