With unique designs, bold artwork and wonderful sea-views, Villa Des Caraibes is a colourful holiday home in a superb position in Vallauris, close to Cannes and the sandy shores of the glistening Côte d'Azur.
The sense of style and space is superb in this architect-designed villa with air-conditioning throughout. Four en suite bedrooms can be found across three floors, including a lower ground annexe with fitness equipment and two upstairs rooms leading out to a terrace with views towards the French Riviera coastline. On the main floor, the elegant lounge sits alongside the cool and contemporary kitchen-diner – this is modern open-plan living at its best.
Step straight out to the joyful garden with its picturesque pool and characterful bar plus there is ample room for al-fresco lounging and dining by the plancha-style barbecue. Towering pines and palm trees juxtapose striking sculptures across this quirky and artistic abode – after all, this is the region that has inspired so many great artists over the years.
Stroll into Vallauris, around 1km away, and look out for works of art inspired by Picasso who lived here for several years – the Musée National Pablo Picasso is a must-see in the town. Soak up the Mediterranean vibe as you visit bustling restaurants, café-bars and shops and pop into one of the many ceramic studios that Vallauris is also known for.
The marina and beaches of Golfe-Juan are only 4km away or head to the beautiful shores of Cannes and Juan-Les-Pins. When not experiencing the glamour of Cannes or the charm of Antibes, hop on a ferry to the Lérins Islands and follow one of the stunning coastal trails on Cap d’Antibes.
Maybe Nice and Monaco will be on your list of places to see. Don’t miss some of the Côte d'Azur’s picture-perfect villages in the hills from flower-filled Mougins, also loved by Picasso, to Biot and Opio. Not forgetting the perfumes of Grasse and the glorious market town of Valbonne – all gems so easily reached in this captivating part of southern France.
What you should know…
- There are three bedrooms in the main part of the villa and one in a lower ground annexe.
- Young children may need to be supervised due to the floating steps to the first level and a narrow spiral staircase to reach the lower floor.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa Des CaraibesVilla Des Caraibes is located close to Cannes, just a short stroll away from the handsome town of Vallauris, perfectly positioned for exploring the towns, villages and beaches of the French Riviera.
It’s around 1km to the heart of Vallauris, a bustling town with shops, restaurants, artisan ceramic studios and the fantastic Musée National Pablo Picasso. Indeed, Picasso lived here for many years and you can see street-art inspired by the famous artist across the town.
Golfe-Juan is just over a 5-minute drive away, an atmospheric seaside resort with restaurants near the promenade, sandy beaches either side of the marina as well as boat hire and fishing opportunities.
You can be strolling along La Croisette, Cannes’ iconic boulevard, in no time at all – Cannes is only 7km away. There is so much to see and do in this grand city from its charming historic quarter, Le Suquet, and the colourful Marché Forville to palm-fringed beaches, high-end hotels and glamourous restaurants and bars. Escape the summer crowds by hopping on a ferry to the more serene Lérins Islands or you may prefer one of the many boat excursions that depart from Cannes harbour.
Look out for a great range of watersports in Cannes or drive across to Juan-Les-Pins, another superb spot for summer water-based activities and boat trips. The chic resort, close to Antibes, is also home to wonderful beachside restaurants and there’s a vibrant ambience across its bars, especially in the summer months.
The charm of old Antibes (7km) also awaits with its historic ramparts, narrow lanes, picturesque restaurants and another Picasso museum whilst Cap d’Antibes offers stunning coastal walking trails.
Then there’s Nice (25km) and Monaco (45km), both close enough a brilliant day out. Not forgetting the glorious hinterland of the Côte d'Azur with flower-filled villages, gastronomic restaurants and beautiful views of rolling hills, woodland and olive groves – Mougins and Biot are both easily reached or head a little further towards Grasse (20km), the perfume capital of France. Valbonne is another historic gem, under a 20-minute drive away, and is especially wonderful on a Friday morning with its vast Provençal market.

Best Suited For: ChildrenIt goes without saying that the French Riviera offers so much for families with its beaches, stunning landscapes and other attractions.
At Villa Des Caraibes it is wonderful to be able to stroll out to the shops, restaurants and of course the Musée National Pablo Picasso – look out for sculptures and other works of art across the town inspired by the incredible painter.
The atmospheric seaside resort of Golfe-Juan is around 4km away or you have a choice of sandy shores in both Cannes and Juan-Les-Pins. There is a great range of summer watersports along this coastline from sea-kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding to sailing, snorkelling and so much more.
Just north of Antibes there are a number of family attractions including mini-golf, amusement parks, water parks, a farm and Marineland.
Beyond Antibes, near Villeneuve-Loubet, you will find two further amusement parks or head towards Grasse for paint-balling and tree-top adventure courses in magnificent surroundings.

What a view!
We loved the house and what a view! We were close to the beaches while remaining in the calm of the beautiful village. The pool is great and the exotic bar with plancha made us stay all day at the Villa.
