One reason to book: the unique location! Impressive view, closeness to beach, high chance of favorable weather.
Several minuses: located on a very steep hillside, you need to take 100+ stairs in order to get to the road, with your luggage in hand. Additionally, car parking is very difficult: either in a garage that is very narrow and uses a lift for your car (!), or on the road where parking space is very scarce. You need a car to get to shops, so this is a recurring problem.
We had a problem on arriving in getting in contact with the right person to get the keys, made us sweat a bit... Fortunately solved after a few hours. Tip: make vsure you communicate very well with the owners on this issue beforehand!
Our kids had a great time here. We as parents were fond of the beach, less fond of the general atmosphere in this coastal area. Tip: take time to visit the hinterland, very beautiful mountain scenery
First of all, the pictures & the description are not accurate! Unfortunately, we can't post any picture!
- You don't get a villa but an apartment
- On the terrasse, a house blocks the view! The pictures shown here are taken from the street and the steep stairs that you have to climb down to get to the property.
- The house is nestled in between the railway and the very noisy road that links Monaco to Italy and that is used by thousands of cars and motorbikes each day. The traffic noise is ongoing from dust till midnight and can't even be shut out by the closed windows. You can't walk anywhere without being drowned in the traffic the moment you get on the street.
- The comfort of this "luxurious" villa, as it is described, is non-existant, everything is old and dirty: the refrigerator, the coffeemaker, inside the cupboards, the molding shower, the furniture, etc. There are two formerly white plastic sunbeds but no cushions to go with it. Everything is reduced to a strict minimum without any consideration for the comfort of the guests.
- The old beds left us sleepless most of the nights and there is no protection against mosquitos on the windows.
- You have to bring you own sheets and towels but there is no information as to the sizes needed. So our sheets didn't fit...
- There is NO INTERNET!
+ The only positive thing is the easy access to the beach.
We felt so ill at ease that we left the property five days early and checked into a hotel.
Waste of money!
Wunderschöne Aussicht .
Kommunikation klappt prima mit der Besitzerin , ganz kleiner Nachteil , sehr viele Stufen , aber fĂŒr die Aussicht lohnt es sich .
Amazing views of Monte Carlo and the access to the train to Menton, Monte Carlo, Nice and Ventimiglia. The house is a perfect place to set up camp to explore the region.
The soft furnishings, kitchen utensils and amenities could do with an update and I think the linen/towels should be included.
Overall great property for to make a base. I will echo the other reviews and ensure that you are fit enough to tackle the stairs.
Me and my family had an really enjoyable stay and Andre the host is a wonderful person and great communicating pre and mid stay!!
Wunderschöner nicht ĂŒberlaufener Strand (Badeschuhe zu empfehlen) in FuĂnĂ€he, schöne kleine Altstadt, tolle Lage zwischen Menton und Monaco. Wer einigermaĂen fit ist, wird den Urlaub hier genieĂen.
Con mia moglie e un'altra coppia di amici, abbiamo appena trascorso una piacevole vacanza di una settimana a Roquebrune. La casa, come descritto nella presentazione ha, da tutti gli angoli, una magnifica vista su Montecarlo, godevole soprattutto dall'ampio patio, a lato dell'immobile. La sera, con le luci che illuminano la collina, le lussuose imbarcazioni ormeggiate a poca distanza dalla costa e il silenzio rotto unicamente dalle onde del mare, Ăš uno veramente uno spettacolo.
La casa Ăš accessibile tramite 120 gradini dall'Avenue Pierre Curie oppure con un piĂč agevole sentiero, pavimentato in calcestruzzo e poco distante, che poi conduce alla spiaggia sottostante, a circa 10 minuti di cammino. L'iniziale fatica Ăš, tuttavia, appagata.
L'interno Ăš accogliente e sobrio. Vale la pena ritornarci.
Il giudizio finale Ăš, per noi, ottimo, anche se il prezzo, considerato per una sola famiglia, Ăš un po' eccessivo.

We liked everything! The villa is very cosy, quiet, with a big garden, and the seaview is great. The beach is just 10 min. walk down the hill. The house has everything necessary, so the description on the site is exact. We had an opportunity to use the garage nearby, which was also an advantage.
The villa can't be recommended for people to whom going up and down the hill could be a problem, but for us it vas good exercise.
Tryig to be objective, I must say, that the only negative thing for us was that we came and left on Fridays, not on Saturdays, so we had to pay extra 100 euros, though we stayed one week. But the stay was so pleasant, that we agreed to pay this extra charge. One bedroom doesn't have windows at all (only two doors), but that was ok. Hope to come again!
"We had the great holiday at this spacious, comfortable and very nice villa. A lot of plants, flowers and really fantastic view on the see... Every day!"
