Amazing view, great location, very comfortable apartment!

Russell’s apartment is perfectly situated in the old part of town yet close to bus stops that can take you to Nice, Monaco, Menton…It is a very nice apartment with modern conveniences, including AC.There is a steep stairway so I would not recommend it for those who have mobility challenges.

Beautiful apartment at the very top of the old village. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby (some closed in the winter months). A 15 minute walk (uphill) to the Institut francais, so a nice little workout in the morning. I stayed for the month of February, and the town was quiet without many tourists. The weather was mostly nice and sunny with lows in the 40's F at night and up to 60F during the day. Be forewarned that the steps up to the apartment are steep, so a little difficult to maneuver with heavy luggage or if you are out of shape!Russell (host) is always available, as is his friendly father who lives in Villefranche-sur-mer.Lovely view of the harbor!Merci Russell and JP!

Perfectly located and absolutely lovely studio

It was an absolutely lovely studio. Not only was it well situated with a beautiful view, the apartment was perfectly well equipped with everything needed for our stay in Villefranche. It was very clean and beautifully furnished. Another positive aspect was how well the property manager communicated with us before and during our stay. I would definitely stay there again.

Stunning! Even better than expected!

The views are amazing from almost every window. The location is close to everything but not in the middle of the tourist area. The host is friendly and he and his dad gave us great tips for restaurants and hikes and made us feel so welcome. Yes, there are steps...but there are steps everywhere in town, so really not a big deal. Truly, I cannot say enough good things about this place! Thanks, Russell and Jean Paul. Look us up when you come to the US.

Absolutely wonderful!

Can’t say enough good things about this place. Everything is just what you would want. The artwork is beautiful, the layout attractive and functional, the window view of the sea is perfect! And the stairs are doable. My husband and I, aged 68 and 71 handled that fine. We are in fairly good shape, but nothing extraordinary.

Villefranche old town flat

Excellent location in quiet street with easy access for Uber drop off. Wonderful seaside view with two levels/bathrooms for privacy. Owner extremely helpful and on hand when we arrived/departed with restaurant advice, etc. Two flights of stairs to flat with another flight within flat, no lift. Area bus stop for Nice/Beaulieu 10’ walk. Interior recently renovated with modern WC’s. No question I would gladly stay here again.

Côte d’Azur Dream

Everything was promptly handled by the owner, Russell from the moment we booked. Russell met us at checkin and even carried our luggage up to the flat! He went above and beyond looking after us for the month we stayed with him. We cooked in the kitchen and many nights had charcuterie at the window overlooking the bay. Villefranche is a perfect location to travel into Italy or Cannes and Antibes for the day by train or bus. It was a dream place to stay. A big thanks to Jean Paul and his welcoming us to Saturday Boules with other English speakers. We would love to come back.

Delightful apartment and excellent host

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay in this really well located and quiet apartment. Before, during and after our stay, I Russell was very helpful and informative. He met us at the apartment and walked us thru everything we could possibly need to know. We loved our happy hours, sitting at the big window in front of the dining table with a light breeze and beautiful view of the sea. We had no issue with the steep stairs but if you have mobility issues, this may not be a good place for you. Otherwise, we would highly recommend.

We loved staying in Villefranche , at Russell’s lovely apartment ! It was quiet, comfortable and had everything that we needed for 4 days. Russell communicated with me prior to the trip and after our arrival. We had the pleasure to meet Russell’s father, Jean Paul, who lives in the village. Jean Paul was sweet, friendly and so helpful ! Jean Paul recommended that we eat at Lou Bantry . It was our favorite restaurant in Villefranche. We went to Saint Paul de Vence one day on the train and bus. It is a gorgeous village. Get ready to walk a lot of steps in Villefranche:) Villefranche is close to many other beautiful places in the French Riviera that you can access by train for day trips ! Unfortunately the water was too cold to swim in for us in November. Hopefully we will be able to return some summer for another great vacation in Villefranche ! Merci beaucoup Russell and Jean Paul !

Perfect location with exceptional view

This apartment is convenient for exploring all the towns on the French Riviera by train or bus. The view is even more panoramic than the listing photo. The apartment has new top end appliances and a very comfortable bed. It is well equipped for cooking. We cooked most meals because the butcher store, market and bakery were so close. But we also ate out at several of the excellent local restaurants. The two bathrooms were a nice extra with bath fixtures in perfect condition. The location is quiet. We really enjoyed the easy access to the beach. Russell was very easy to reach to answer any questions and his father Jean-Paul was very helpful too. Villefranche-sur-mer is a hilly town so expect steep steps around town and getting into the apartment. We stayed for 18 nights in April 2025 and it felt like home.

Lofty apartment in charming old Villefranche

This property has been renovated with the utmost care to use every little charming nook and cranny of the old walls for today's luxuries like washer/ dryer/ DW and great oven. My favorite place while home was to sit by the window in a tall chair to view over the rooftops the busy harbor activities of sailors anchoring their boats as well as cruise ships and ferries coming and going, letting off or collecting their passengers. Bring little binoculars! We liked the ease of wifi /phone / ipod player set up. It was wonderful to be right in the old town of stairs and steps, and expect the same with this apartment. The manager was very helpful bringing our suitcases up- and downstairs so this was not a problem for us older folks. Great variety of wonderful restaurants within 5 minutes of sauntering down some steps. Car not necessary since parking is difficult and great train or bus connections are cheap and easy to nearby Nice or Monaco etc.

Perfect stay

Our stay in Russell’s apartment was for almost 3 months. First and foremost I have to say the hosts went way above and beyond. In addition to Russell, we were fortunate that his father happened to be in town during our stay and he went out of his way to not only make sure we were comfortable and set in the apartment but also brought us into the community. He toured us around the Cote d Azure and provided us with so much local knowledge. Both Russell and his father were incredibly responsive to anything we needed. As for the apartment itself, it was wonderful. The view across the bay every morning when I got up is an image permanently etched in my memories. The apartment is ideally located in Old Town with many nearby restaurants and a 10 minute picturesque stroll to the nicest beach in the region. Yes, there are stairs. But the entire region is hilly so if you aren’t comfortable negotiating uphill and downhill terrain, this region may not be right for you. We are in our 60’s and had no trouble with the stairs however we were sure glad to have help with our luggage on arrival. Overall, I cannot speak highly enough about what great hosts Russell and his father were and what a perfect location and apartment this is for a base camp to explore the Cote d Azur.

Pretty apartment-Not a fit for all

Firstly, we are very well-travelled, late fifties, fit and have lived in three different countries. This apartment is very well located in the lovely town of Villefranche. You can walk to the wonderful restaurants, churches, beach and train station. The trains, were, however, on strike during our stay. The flat is very bright and well-furnished with dish-washer, washer, dryer and T.V. There are two bathrooms- a neccesity, because of the curved stairs. It was extremely clean and well- maintained. There are two caveats here. This apartment does not have air-conditioning, nor does it have an outside patio or balcony. As a result, it is very warm during the summer months. Villefranche is located on a hill and contains many steps. This apartment contains stairs as well, both from the sidewalk and within the apartment itself. It would not be appropriate for children, or people with any physical challenges. While the owner did contact us to ask for input, she was not helpful in offering a solution to our take on both the heat and the stairs. We ended up spending a night at a hotel with air-conditioning and a pool in order to cool off. If this is not an issue for you, then you may like this property.
Response from VrboOwner on 25 March 2020
We are happy that Nigel and Katherine liked our apartment, but sorry that their visit coincided with a heat wave and a train strike which they understandably found trying. Villefranche is a charming 13th C. village with many stairs leading to the sea in the pedestrian zone. Fortunately, we are located on an ideal street within the old town, just 100 yards and five steps down from the Place de la Paix which has taxi access, a bus stop and many small shops. The apartment is a duplex located on the second floor of our small building, accessible via a flight of stairs, steep by American standards (see photographs in listing.) Normally, our thick stone walls, large modern windows and excellent cross ventilation provide quiet, comfortable sleeping.
