The Boat:
Apreamare is probably the most fashionable boat on the Cote d'Azur. Very comfortable and classy, it is also very fast reaching 30 nots. Explore the French Riviera from Menton to St Tropez. The boat is moored at the Port Garavan of Menton, the last French town in the border with Italy and just 20 minutes from Monaco. The nicest places to visit are: Punta Mortola and the Balzi Rossi beach (with a very nice restaurant) on the Italian coast.
You will find Cap Martin, Roquebrune, Monaco, Cap d'Ail (nice restaurant on the beach), Cap Ferrat (Paloma fashionable restaurant), Villfranche and the Bay of the billionaires. Within 1 hour you can reach the wonderful islands of Lerins, just in front of Cannes with a very nice restaurant managed by monks. After that you can reach Cap d'Antibes and St Tropez is around 2 1/2 hours with good sea conditions.
Many thanks to Leonardo for letting us stay in his amazing period family home. We had a wonderful time with both France and Italy on the doorstep. The highlight was the swimming pool and views plus the very well located shop at the bottom of the drive (much needed for 5 hungry teenagers!).
Couple of issues on the first day but most were cleared up immediately by Leonardo.
Thank you again.
Eines der schönsten Urlaube, die wir je hatten.Alles perfekt.Die historische Villa hat sehr viel Charme.Wir (Eltern mit 3 Kindern) haben uns sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt.Der Pool mit Meeresblick ist nicht zu toppen.Der Vermieter ist sehr freundlich.
Great pool in a unique property situated in a small village with great views over the Med.
We pick this property mainly for the pool and the view. We were after a house on the Riviera where the children could swim while we chilled.
The house is rather unique and gave an extra character to the holiday. The two real pluses were the views from the top of the tower but by far the 100m large balcony which had both shade and sun.
The house was clean and cool during the days, while the kitchen was small it had all the commodities required to cook meals.
The property had a rather cool entrance and a rather steep hill. The property felt secure and is situated away from the main road.
The property managers were very hospitable and answered all queries via whattsapp in a short space of time.
Latte is very busy in the morning hours with traffic but then it settles down. The local supermarket does have everything you will need. Great morning bread for breakfast.
Checked the beach on Google prior to the visit but the actual beach was a positive surprise. The photos you see on the week show a stony beach. The stones however stop at the water line and the beach becomes firm golden sand when you are in the water. A small public fresh water shower is available.
Great location with larger towns a few kilometres to the west or east of Latte.
We were a family of 5 but easily two families of 4 would have room and a nice time.
Negatives of the house.
1. Early morning traffic, but you soon sleep on or wake up and enjoy the balcony even more.
2. The train does not stop in Latte which makes travelling in the evening by car only. ( I was driving but I soon took a glass of wine on our return).
Positives
1. The pool, great pool. Deep for diving but shallow (80cm) at the other end.
2. The views over the bay.
The property is expensive but when you are there and by the pool with the view during the summer. Life is great.
Ho alloggiato a Villa Corinna con mia moglie, le nostre due figlie ed una coppia di amici anche loro con due figli. La casa Ăš magnifica e sembra ti tornare indietro nel tempo per i bellissimi mobili dâepoca che arredano il salotto, la sala da pranzo e le camere da letto. La vista del mare Ăš mozzafiato e la si puĂČ godere da tutte le stanze della casa.
Abbiamo pranzato sia a bordo piscina che nella grande terrazza con la sua meravigliosa vista sulla baia di Latte e la Punta Mortola.
La proprietĂ Ăš immersa in un oliveto centenario dove i ragazzi si sono divertiti a giocare a nascondino o organizzare pic-nic. La proprietĂ Ăš talmente piacevole e rilassante che quasi si fa fatica ad uscire per esplorare i dintorni. Tuttavia le cose da fare sono innumerevoli sia sul versante Francese che quello Italiano e sia sul mare che nellâentroterra. In tal senso abbiamo trovato una guida scritta dai proprietari con utilissimi consigli su luoghi di interesse, spiagge,e ristoranti dove andare. Consiglio magari di chiederla all'atto della prenotazione.
Una vacanza in famiglia meravigliosa dove abbiamo alternato relax a bellissime escursioni.
Torneremo sicuramente e raccomandiamo fortemente la casa.
Abbiamo alloggiato per 1 settimana nel mese di Settembre a Villa Corinna ed Ăš stata una magnifica scoperta che Ăš andata ben al di lĂ delle nostre giĂ alte aspettative. La casa Ăš immersa in un bellissimo parco con ulivi centenari, palme e cipressi su una collina ad appena 500 metri dal mare e da cui si gode una meravigliosa vista.
Le camere sono di grande charme, con mobili dâepoca ed affacciano tutte sul mare ed i giardini della casa. Il salotto Ăš degno di un palazzo aristocratico ed abbiamo a lungo goduto della grande terrazza dove abbiamo spesso mangiato allâaperto. La piscina ha una vista mozzafiato sul mare e la baia di Latte.
La casa Ăš strategicamente posizionata ad appena 2 kilometri dal confine tra Italia e Francia ed abbiamo fatto diverse escursioni sia sul versante della Costa Azzurra (Montecarlo, Nizza, VilleFranche e St Paul de Vence) sia sul versante Italiano dove siamo stati a Sanremo e nellâentroterra nei villaggi medioevali di Dolceacqua ed Apricale.
Un giorno abbiamo anche affittato per una giornata la barca messa a disposizione dai proprietari della casa e siamo stati a Cap Martin et Cap Ferrat fino alle isole di Lerins di fronte e Cannes dove abbiamo pranzato in un ristorante âpied dans lâeauâ gestito dai monaci dellâabbazia dellâisola.
Raccomandiamo fortemente Villa Corinna per chi vuole vivere una vacanza da sogno in una villa di grande charme ed esplorare le tante attrazioni che offre la zona.
Truly unique experience! Beautiful castle with elegance and style throughout ! The property is exceptional! Great for entertaining your guests and family or just spend romantic evenings on a terrace or by the pool. Hosts were very helpful and friendly! Situated in charming Italy with pretty becheas and nature but only a short drive to vibrant Monaco . Hope to come back very soon!

A villa seeded in history with period charm and great views of the sea. The rooms are very large and the terrace overlooking the sea is lovely. The area surrounding the villa has very nice restaurants and beaches. The owners were very helpful and charming. We had a great time and certainly planning to return in the future.

A truly unspoiled gem
The Villa was magnificent with original features. The views were breathtaking. The rooms are large and nicely furnished and the see can be seen from all the rooms in the villa. Nice outdoor area accessible to kitchen which is well equipped. The owner is very helpful and on site for any problem. A couple of glitches were taken care of immediately. There is a supermarket very nearby in which all the shopping from fresh to cooked to drinks and more can be found. The location is great and there is access to great restaurants both in Italy and France. We enjoyed the boat trip which could be organised separately. Everything was informal and restful. The host/owner family were charming and could speak English which was an advantage. The villa is very famous locally.
The views are amazing, the location is great, the host was there for any questions. The house is a 16th century tower so it doesn't have all the modern amenities but it was what we were looking for. It could get a little loud at night with the windows open- traffic and some kind of club with music. The hosts are just starting to rent this villa out so it was missing some amenities which they gladly asked us about so they can add them in. Overall we had a wonderful stay.
