Not what we expected

The villa has magnificent views towards the Med, however could have benefitted from a professional cleaning service prior to our arrival. In over 20 years of using Villas from VRBO and similar, this is the first Villa we have rented which is clearly the owners home rather than a dedicated rental property. Although the description does reference 2 healthy independent cats, it's not uncommon to see cats at most resort villas, however you realise that you have signed up to being a cat sitter once Penny has given you the tour of the property. Dried food and water kept topped up along with a morning and an evening tinned food regime. We are not cat people but if you are, you'll no doubt feel at home. Also, be prepared to break out the watering can.....lots of pot plants inside and out that need regular watering. Something I do at home but again, didn't realise we signing up for the same on our holiday.Our main concern however was that once the final payment had been made a couple of weeks before the trip, Penny told us that she would be staying 'in the self contained studio alongside house for one night' as catching a flight the following day. This came across as a separate accommodation from the villa, however it became apparent that it was bedroom 3 which is in the villa. So our final gripe is that we did not sign upto a house share for the first day and night of our villa holiday. This spooked my wife and I was certainly not comfortable with the arrangement.

Incredible View

Watching the sunrise was my favorite thing about this property. Incredible views! We traveled through France for a couple of weeks by car and stayed several places. Hands down the BEST shower! Lots of room and Penny is the sweetest. She gave us great ideas for site seeing. If you like pets she has 2 friendly cats, Minnie and Vintie. We found it easy to park the car in the garage. Wish the weather would have permitted using the pool but it was too cold. I highly recommend this property if you are visiting the south of France!

Gorgeous villa with outstanding views!

Beautiful little villa high up on the hills outside Grasse. We sat outside on the veranda every evening enjoying the view with our wine and appies after long days sight seeing. Even the friendly felines made us feel welcome. One note, we had a larger suv for 5 adults and the parking getting into the garage was a little tight.

The perfect location

Penny was a fabulous host to us- the property was clean and well- situated, we were very comfortable. The location for us was convenient as well- quiet neighborhood, scenic views, close to our friends' home. A note for other travelers- the drive up involves some tight turns, so be prepared. That said, the destination is worth the climb! We had no issues at all. She was as accommodating as could be, and we will gladly stay with her again. Thank you Penny!

An excellent holiday

We had a great stay at our villa, it was hot weather so the pool was very welcome. The two cats that live at the villa are lovely and we had some great cuddles. From the balcony you can see out to the sea and we even saw fireworks one night. Penny the host met us for check in and kindly gave us suggestions of places to visit during our stay. We would highly recommend this villa.

Fantastic stay, beautiful house, amazing views

We had a brilliant week at Penny's property. The house was a great size for our family of four, and our children (aged 5&8) loved the pool, the cats and having breakfast on the terrace with views all along the french riviera. The indoor and outdoor areas had plenty of space for relaxing, the area by the pool was lovely to sit at and the pool itself was a good size for swimming and splashing about to cool down. The house had everything you would need and we ate in some evenings to enjoy the sunsets on the balcony. When we did venture out, the property is in a great location for heading down into Grasse, Valbonne, Nice, Cannes or Antibes for the sandy beach. We would definitely recommend Penny's place.

Idyllic villa with breathtaking views

We loved our stay here. Penny was the perfect host. There was a very helpful book to guide us through the house and Penny was always responsive on text. The villa is a short drive from Grasse and a boulangerie is a few minutes drive, perfect for morning pastries. Sadly it was too cold to use the pool, but it was a charming infinity pool which would be amazing in the Summer. We would definitely come again.

Wonderful Vacation

Penny was the most gracious host, even picking up a few bits for our first night at the house. The house itself is well laid out with plenty of space (and bathrooms!) for everyone. Well situated to allow discovery of quaint towns (Valbonne, Vence, Grasse) and also the beaches near Cannes and Mandlieu. Not stroller friendly as there are lots of stairs. Not bike friendly as it's in a hilly area (hence the magnificent views!) overall a pleasant stay and would recommend!

Magnificent view - Cote d'Azur at its best !

We thoroughly enjoyed our 10 days at Villa "Blue Sky" ! A little difficult to find, high in the hills, up winding roads... but once you are there, it is magical. We ate on the terrace, with a view to the Mediterranean, on most nights with a glass of bubbly, and watched sunrises in the mornings, with a cup of coffee. A good spot for 2 or 3 couples, as all bedrooms are ensuite, and the house is quite comfortable, with space indoors and out. The stairs going up to the house are only difficult with luggage in tow. A handrail would help. Lots of villages to visit within 1/2 hour, even if you don't want to tackle the traffic and parking of coastal cities. Gourdon, Tourettes, Cabris, Mougins, St. Paul de Vence, Valbonne, are all worth a visit. And a day trip to the Gorges du Verdon is a must. Excellent grocery shopping at Casino and amazing new SuperU. Penny is a delightful host, and communications with her via HomeAway or WhatApp were usually prompt. Would definitely recommend a stay.

First Class

Conversing on the balcony and looking out across wooded hills to the Mediterranean is a holiday in itself. Easy access through the Alpes Maritimes to historic hilltop villages like Gourdon; or through the stunning Gorges du Loup to explore medieval towns such as Le Bar, Tourrettes sur Loup, Vence, with their splendid markets, coffee houses, restaurants. Easy run in to Cannes and Antibes to savour city environments and seaside coffee houses and restaurants. I was pleased to return to a high and relatively cooler home but still warm enough to swim in the pool. Terraces of flowery gardens, including a lawn to sit or play on; in my case to sit and enjoy the rich array of trees. Home from home in the well-appointed and comfortable lounge. Great entertainment provided by a fine selection of videos - fiction and non-fiction. An excellent stock of food and drinks provided for us as specially requested. Plenty of rooms. The one we had was elegant, having all necessary facilities of high quality. In this noise-free environment, sleep came easily. The view from the window facing south provided a heart-warming hello to each morning. On arrival, Penny was present to give a very warm welcome and advise on where to go, what best to see and how best to get there. She remained in touch through WhatsApp if we needed further help. On departure, she was present again to check on how things had gone and wish us au revoir. With this kind of venue and hospitality, we will certainly be back again, bringing a younger family with us next time. Heartily recommended.

Family holiday near Grasse

This was a great place to stay with our (twenty-something year old) kids and their friends. There was plenty of space and facilities for everyone so that we could be together or have our own space. The pool was fantastic and the house itself was quiet, calm and relaxing. Whilst the house is not particularly close to shops and restaurants on foot it is perfect for exploring the local hills, villages and coast by car.
