Classic Vieil Antibes House With Roof Terrace Offering Sea Views
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.

A real taste of old Antibes in this traditional house. The location is ideal, close to the marché provençal, and with a view of the sea from the terrace, but is quiet and peaceful. Perfect for a break in one of our favourite French towns.

Incredible location. We hope to return. Great time of year to visit.
The location was ideal, near the market, restaurants and shops, proximity to the water. The house was lovely and the terrace view was beautiful. Celia and Sarah were very responsive and replied with suggestions and guidance about what to see and transportation to reach the sights. We had a fantastic time in old town Antibes.
Timeless charming cottage in an excellent location
Very nice timeless character property excellent location. Celia responded to all your queries and questions in minutes and was always very supportive. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend the property.
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!
We experienced the charme of an old town house; the interior decor is nice - to feel comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped and meets all your needs.
We have spent an incredible week in Celia's charming house. Good comunication from the start, and perfekt check in. Excellent location, in a quiet liltle street, lovely decor, comfy beds, and fantastic roof terrace! Everything was great. We definitely come back.
Delightful little town house in a stunning location. Celia the host couldn’t have been more helpful. There’s an intoxicating charm about Old Antibes and this property is at the heart of it. It’s quirky, rustic, old and full of character.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
Perfect location in a quiet little street just minutes from the centre of Antibes, house fully equipped with everything you needed, communication with Celia was very smooth. Will definitely come back!
We loved our stay here. Very compact, but had everything we needed. Amazing views from the rooftop terrace. Very close to city centre, but in a quiet street. Highly recommend!
We had a fantastic stay in Antibes , the house was full of character . The only thing that is really needed is proper air on . The portable ones where very good .
The house is super cosy and the location is fantastic. The rooftop terrace is great for a glass of wine in the evening. The kids loved the little loft at the top floor. Everything was very nice and the house is well equipped.
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.
