We stayed here with our grown up son. The 2 bathrooms were useful. Lovely terrace and garden to sit in and use of the pool was appreciated as it was rather hot. The nearest supermarket involves walking down the hill and then back up with the shopping. You need to be fit enough to do this. In the heat the hill can be tiring. We tended not to get the bus into Menton but there is one. The station Menton Garavan is a short walk from the apartment and is on the main train line along the Cote DâAzur. We went to Nice and in to Italy. You can actually walk into Italy from the apartment - about 20 minutes!The AC in the bedrooms was appreciated during our stay. We recommend this place.
We loved everything about the apartment and the location. Spacious and appointed really well with gorgeous gardens and pool. Near the train and a walk into menton. Perfect.
The hill is a slog but the view is worth it. We had a relaxing time with some exploring along the coast using the train. The station is only 8 minutes away via the back door to the garden. The villa was very clean and we had everything we wanted. We didnât have a car so relied on a 30 minute round walk to the local shop for groceries. Overall a lovely place. Note there is not a BBQ.
Very comfortable, air conditioned flat with a five star view of Menton, Cap Martin and the sea . I would recommend this to adults with a car (Garavan is up a hillside) or use taxis for heavy shopping . The pool is very grown up and floatables prohibited, not really suitable for children . You could however, supervise them from the decking
The kitchen could do with some better glass wear which is the only gripe I had . A great find and many thanks to Charlotte for meeting us
Vi havde en fantastisk ferie og lejligheden/komplekset levede op til vores forventninger. PĂŠnt rent og dejligt med garage til bilen. Ikke sidste gang vi booker lejligheden.
We found the apartment to be just what we needed for a lovely weeks stay in Menton. The apartment is wonderfully situated With a slight hill to navigate to get to the back door entrance but nothing too bad and a lovely stroll along the seafront into old town to enjoy the wonderful delights of Menton, with its restaurants, bars and shopping. The pool was an added bonus if a little cold, but once you were in, it was lovely. The security to get in and out of the apartment is first rate and the apartment itself is very modern, up-to-date and comfortable. We will definitely be looking to come back in the near future. Communication was excellent, and Charlotte the Property Manager was on hand for anything we needed. The only negative point I would have is that the cooker dials are completely rubbed off and worn away so operating the cooker is a trial by error but it was easy enough to work out once you got the hang of it.
Beautiful spot, convenient to city and beach. Very steep hill to access by foot ( for anyone who is physically challenged) but parking is available. Car is not necessary to vacation in this great condo as Menton is a very walkable city with train and bus easily accessible.
Condo is very clean and well equipped. The garden and patio are wonderful and pool is just steps away!!
Wir haben den Aufenthalt in diesem gepflegten und groĂzĂŒgigen Apartment genossen. Alles war gepflegt, Toll besonders die groĂzĂŒgige Terrasse mit Garten mit tollem Blick aufs Meer und auf die Stadt Menton, die man auch fuĂlĂ€ufig gut erreichen kann. Hinzubuchen des Autostellplatzes wĂŒrde ich empfehlen. Super wĂ€re es, wenn der Zugang zur Terrasse auch von auĂen auf- und abschlieĂbar wĂ€re. Klimaanlage ohne Zusatzkosten nutzbar (in der Sommersaison hier wichtig). MĂŒckenschutz nicht vergessen.
Chateau Vallaya is a very nice place to stay. The covered terrass offers an breathtaking view over the bay and is always a bit windy. Menton is a delightful seaside resort.
Superbe appartement, trĂšs grand avec un jardin , il manque juste un barbecue ou une plancha et un grille pain.
Petit hic : nous n avons pas pu se servir du four car trop sale.
Dommage car l appartement est superbe.
Gute Lage.
Modernes, hochwertiges Mobiliar.
KĂŒche zu schwach beleuchtet, auch ĂŒber dem Esstisch fehlt eine Lampe.
Fernsehschirm viel zu klein.
Separate Dusche fĂŒr "stattliche Figuren" nicht geeignet.
Parkplatz (35⏠/Woche) fĂŒr grössere Autos kaum zumutbar.
Störende GerĂ€usche von Anwohnern (Schritte , StĂŒhle rĂŒcken etc:)
Keine Erneuerung der WĂ€sche innerhalb 3 Wochen!
GroĂzĂŒgiges Appartement mit einem traumhaften Blick auf Menton. In ca. 20min ist man zu FuĂ am Hafen entlang zum Ortskern gelaufen. Der Pool war im Sommer eine willkommenen AbkĂŒhlung, zusĂ€tzlich zum sehr sauberen Kiesstrand in ca. 10 min Entfernung. Wir Kommen gerne wieder und waren sehr zufrieden!
We are Italien owners and we bought this lovely apartment as our secondary home. When we don't use it ourselves, we rent it out for guests. Charlotte is our Property Manager, she's a professional Property Manager & Real Estate agent with many years of experience, she speaks French, English and Swedish and bring a high-quality service to our guests.
Garavan is an exclusive part of Menton on the border with Italy and many beautiful villas with fine gardens were built, often by British families at the start of the last century. Many of these villas remain. Our building has been most elegantly designed and construced in the garden of one of these villas and is on a particularly quiet road just above the main Promenade. Unlike many other resorts this oasis of peace and calm is nevertheless close to shops, bars and restaurants.
The former villa garden with its fine trees & shrubs has been beautifully incorporated into the setting of the new building and is meticulously maintained along with the pool & sunbathing deck. From the apartment and the garden there are inspirational views over the bay with its marinas and beach activities to the romantic Basilica and old town of Menton from sunrise over Italy to sunset behind Monaco!
