Description


Piscine Nuits d'Azur

The French Riviera along the Mediterranean coast is our second home while in France. We explore every area while living in Menton.  Choose the busy towns of Nice and Cannes, home of the famous film festival, or the calmer more discreet villages of Beaulieu, Menton or Cap Ferrat for your vacation.
 

Quaint harbor fishing villages have become chic tourist destinations, full of pleasure yachts and crowded summertime beaches. The famous resorts of Juan-les-Pins and Cap d'Antibes attract the stylish jet set, while Menton opens its doors to everyone.  We explore new adventures for our clients from Marseille to Cinque Terra, Italy while living each year in Menton.  In 2005-06 our excellent apartment rentals offer you great value in off seasons one-half block from the sea.
