Very happy with the apartment and location. Golfe Juan is a smallish town on the coast but with all the necessary amenities locally. There are many local shops including boulangerie downstairs, and 3 supermarkets within 150m. The Marché U even has a British section if you really need a fix of Marmite or similar, and all the main British newspapers can be bought in the newsagents 50m up the road if you need news from home.
Golfe Juan is a little way from Nice Airport but the 200 bus goes direct for just âŹ1. (I think very large luggage costs extra, but we weren't charged for luggage despite large-ish bags)
The train line runs along the cost from almost across the street, rapid services to all the key towns including Cannes, Antibes, Nice, Monaco, Menton and into Italy. You can also easily get into the mountains for the day by going to Grasse direct from Golfe Juan. Top tip - in the summer tourist season (to end Sept), one-day train passes, covering the whole Cote d'Azur coastal line and into the mountains, costs just âŹ12 - and no extra for first class. This is less than just a 2nd class return to Monaco so well worth buying (though I wouldn't pay a premiuim for 1st class on normal fares - very difficult to tell the difference!)
The apartment itself was clean and well kept, the owners were very helpful, and the full deposit was returned very promptly.
Hope to be back soon.
