About this property

Villa Olivade. Panoramic Sea Views - Private Balconies, Terraces & Garden

(Villa is under major renovation. It will be completed at the end of April and new pictures will be posted. Furniture and appliances will be new. We accept bookings for summer). Villa Olivade is a one-bedroom Provençal villa situated on the beautiful, privately gated, Domaine du Piol. Domaine du Piol's elevated position gives it unrivalled views to snow-capped mountains and the sea. The villa benefits from the sun starting in the early morning and throughout the day until it sets directly in front of the west-facing balcony.

Throughout the day, you can enjoy the sunshine and views from either the balconies, the terrace or the sun deck. All of which are on different levels and all offer those essential, amazing views of the Cote d'Azur.

The balconies, large terrace and lower garden area are all private and exclusive to Olivade. No other property on the domaine offers the same amount of privacy or views.

The terrace has a large shaded Pergola with seating for 4 persons and garden lights mean you can eat late into the evening. Multiple adjustable wooden sun-beds on the terrace can be used for sunbathing or walk down to the lower sun deck which sits amongst palms, bamboo and grasses and is also equipped with adjustable sun-beds & parasol.

Villa Olivade Features: The villa is beautifully appointed and decorated throughout with stylish furnishings, marble bathroom, super-king wooden bateau-lit bed, quality kitchenware, air conditioning and Broadband Fibre Network.

You have a choice of areas for dining either inside or out including either our balcony on the top level or beneath the pergola on the terrace. There are many pretty spots to sit outside in the gardens and enjoy a glass of wine all offering different views either to the sea, mountains or surrounding area and villages.

There is a large, shared swimming pool on the Domaine with views to the sea and the Mountains.

Parking is right outside the villa. The parking is covered which is essential in the summer.

St Paul de Vence: The Medieval village of St Paul is just a 20-minute walk or a 5-minute drive away. Here you can stroll through the cobbled streets and enjoy some of the finest art available or watch petanque being played by the locals whilst enjoying a drink in the Cafe de la Place.

Opposite the Cafe de la Place is the famous Colombe d'Or.
Voted one of the top 10 restaurants in the world, the Colombe D'or has the largest private collection of artwork in the world from Picasso as well as work by Matisse and Renoir. Although a regular haunt for the rich and famous, the staff of the Colombe D'or makes everybody feel welcome.

An evening walk around the ramparts is recommended to catch the amazing sunset and see the swallows fill the sky. If you prefer, you can enjoy the same sunset from the villa!

The Côte d'Azur: The A8 which runs along the Cote D'Azur is just 10 minutes from Domaine du Piol and is your fast track to the most famous coastline in the world! Destinations such as Nice are just 15 min, Cannes 30 min, Eze 25 min, Monaco 30 min, Menton and the Italian border 35 min, .... the list goes on.

Heading out beyond Saint Paul there are many beautiful villages such as Vence, Tourette Sur Loup, Gordon and Grasse as well as famous institutions such as the Maeght Foundation, Ville Emprussi de Rothchild and National Parks like the Mercantour and Massif de l'Esterel

This is a wonderful property in a fantastic location. The views are wonderful and it is very peaceful. The villa is very well appointed and you can tell a lot of thought has been put into making it a special place to stay from the large bedroom to the well stocked kitchen. There are many places to sit on the balconies and in the garden to enjoy a glass of wine or cup of coffee. An added bonus was the beautiful community pool. We would definitely stay here again. Additionally it is close toSt Paul de Vence and the Cote d'Aur.

Our recent stay at Domain du Piol , where Olivade, is located was disappointing. We’ve stayed in a number of places in this complex, and we sense that it’s not as well maintained as in the past. Olivade is not able to be secured adequately from entry as the locks on the beautiful French doors don’t work. There are no instructions on stove or washing machine operation. There were only 2 bath towels and 2 hand towels for our use and they were 10 years old and stiff. The shower was moldy and only allowed one shower at a time due to small hot water heater. The refrigerator was apartment size and made loud noise day and night. It does retain the charm, although very worn, of the surroundings. The sleigh bed is very comfortable but needs new linens. The view is outstanding but doesn’t have railings in most cases to the lower terraces. The parking is for a small car only….the Volvo was was too large. In short, the unit is not ready to rent and I don’t think VRBO did a good job giving the new owners guidance in being prepared for renting. Olivade is a Diamond in the rough and the price to rent it should be reflected. The owners need to be more responsive and helpful as the VRBO was nonexistent.

Response from VrboOwner on 27 June 2025
We are very disappointed to hear that you did not enjoy your time in our amazing villa.  However, we believe that it is important for us as owners to address some of the issue that you say you encountered during your stay.  We had not been made aware that one of the locks on the “beautiful” French doors was not working properly, as this was not reported to us by the previous guest. However, it should be noted that these doors lead to a secure elevated terrace that can only be accessed from inside the villa, but we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Regarding the instructions for the stove and washing machine, detailed information on both appliances was provided in the Welcome Guide sent to you by VRBO just 3 days prior to your arrival.  We also took the added measure to email you this guide, where it is also notes that the appliance manuals are located in a draw next to the stove.  The monogram towels and matching bathrobes are less than 3 years old, but our apologies if they felt “stiff”.  The refrigerator/freezer is of standard size for Europe and actually somewhat large for a one-bedroom villa. Concerning the private covered parking space located steps from the villa, the dimensions are provided for guests in the Welcome Guide.  The space accommodates almost all vehicles, except for larger SUVs.  We offer alternative parking for larger vehicles, but unfortunately you did inquire with us about this issue.  Since purchasing the villa in January, we have made many improvements and the property is more than ready for rent, but as we explained to you we have plans for renovations in the winter.  The last point is that you contend that we were not responsive, which is very baffling as the vast number emails between us would suggest otherwise.
