I cant say enough on how beautiful this location was in and out. The house was so clean and comfortable it was like being at home....actually I could have stayed a year or two if allowed. John and Ann were fantastic and great fun.
We stayed in a Seaview room that had a balcony overlooking the pool. You could see the water in the distance but the best view of all was the town of St Paul de Vence. A beautiful walled village a stone's throw away with great art, food, drink and shopping.
The Viila offers breakfast in the morning and happy hour in the evening. Happy hour was great for meeting other guests and getting ideas of places to go each day. There is a small library with books on the area so you can also get ideas from if you dont do enough investigating before you leave home.
There are so many places to visit nearby: two of my favorites were the Villa Rothschild in St Jean Cap Ferrat and a glass factory in Biot. You could spend a month here and not run out of places to go.
Dont tell too many people as there are only six rooms and I will definitely want to go back soon.

We recently had 2 seaview rooms that were just perfect for our foursome. The Villa is a great base - great hosts - perfectly clean and awesome breakfast including champagne.

It's easy to do trips to Vence, Cannes, Monaco, Nice, Biot and other places. We had a car without GPS and did well navigating around.

John and Ann were so great - happy hour at 7 PM - breakfast when we wanted - allowed us to play cards nightly. Fortunately for us we were staying during an off season time and on 2 or 3 nights of our 7 night stay were on our own, so we didn't annoy anyone. Just a perfect place to have been too.

Even with a week here - there are plenty of other places nearby to visit that we missed and it would be easy to stay here again to enjoy other sites.

The Villa St. Maxime is a beautiful villa located in the hills overlooking the Med. The hosts John and Ann were extremely gracious and made us feel extremely welcome in a very relaxed and kind manner.
Our room was very nice and spotlessly clean. The open area in the Villa was beautiful and on the patio there is a spectacular view of the area. The swimming pool looked inviting, but during April the temperature is between 15-22C, a little chilly for a dip.
Ask John to teach you how to open a champagne bottle with a sword!
The breakfasts were very nicely done, with cereal, fresh fruit, yogurt and rolls being served. In addition, the Villa includes several hot egg dishes which are delicious.
The Villa is located within a 10 minute walk of the ancient hilltop town of St. Paul. There you will find numerous art galleries, restaurants and a view overlooking the valley that is spectacular.
My wife and I found the location perfect as a staging point for day trips around the area. Nice, Antibes, Cannes, and Monaco are within a short 15-45 minute drive away. I would recommend a rental car, however, bus service is readily available a short walk away that will take you to the train station which will open up the entire Cote D'Azur area.
With the A8 tollway a 10 minute drive away, it is quite easy to explore much further abroad. This opens up a day trip to Genoa in Italy or Orange in Provence and all points in between.
We highly recommend this lovely destination.

This is a beautiful Bed and Breakfast in a beautiful part of the world. The decor is wonderful, the view of the Mediterranean is spectacular and Ann & John's hospitality is fantastic. We have stayed here before and will definitely be back.
