Golden Riviera in Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur

Golden Riviera Self-Catering

Located just a ten-minute walk away from the pristine beaches of Nice, this little slice of golden heaven is the perfect place to unwind on your getaway to the French Riviera.

We love how the tones and palette of this home reflect its surroundings – sandy, light-toned wood, touches of wicker, straw woven decor, and azure sofas blend together to create a sense of calm and serene. Sun-soaked from the large patio doors, the home is beachy and warm while still being stylish and sophisticated. Those doors lead you out into what could be the highlight of the apartment, although we do love the interior – the decked terrace. The perfect city suntrap, tucked away from the rest of the neighbourhood, complete with sun loungers, a barbecue, and an outdoor dining table.

Spend your days on the beach, backed by palm trees and the lively Promenade des Anglais, and explore the city that is laced with old-world opulence. It isn't all glitz and glam, though – you're just a few tram stops away from Old Nice, a vibrant neighbourhood of 16th-century terracotta-roofed houses, teeming with small eateries that take you back in time.

When you get home, embody the golden age of the French Riviera as you sip on Kir Royales and soak up the last of the afternoon sun on your terrace, before getting dressed up for a night in the city.
