Ample and bright fully furnished flats at la Ciotat Port Vieux.

Steps from (yes, that) La Canebière Street, which takes you down to the port with shopping/noshing adventures along the way.

Playfully exotic escape perched on the edge of the Golf of Aix, near the boutiques, museums and famous Cours Mirabeau.

Chop, chop! Much to see. Start with the Abbaye Saint-Victor and Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilisations.

This country house nestled in 2 acres of uber-lush landscape oozes French style.

In-room style explores the softer side of chic.

Bright and airy spaces to unwind – from surrounding parks and the outdoor pool to lounges and courtyards with hip sculptures.

Close to the motorway and bus stops so you can easily get to the city centre whether you’ve got wheels or not.

Daytripping distance to the cosmopolitan buzz of Cannes and St Tropez, and a mere fifteen-minute drive from the sand.
