Overview
Maison Marcia enjoys a superb location on the Cap D’Antibes peninsula, just a stone’s throw away from the historic centre of Antibes on the French Riviera, in southern France’s Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.
The remarkable villa offers an exceptional panorama of the sea, the Alps and the lighthouse of Cap d'Antibes, ideal for those looking for a piece of paradise.
Designed by a renowned architect and interior designer, the contemporary home is well-suited for the most sophisticated holiday goers. As soon as you enter the main entrance, there is a large living room. In the earthy shades of brown and teal, the sitting area is offset by pops of red, while neon-hued paintings add an extra modern touch. The entire space is exceptionally bright thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows that open to the beautifully landscaped garden with a pool. On the lower ground floor, guests can unwind in their private sauna room with a sleek shower and comfortable beds for relaxation. The five bedrooms are across the three floors, each with a unique en-suite bathroom.
The expansive living and dining area will become the central gathering place during your stay, and it invites guests to take in a splendid panorama. Thanks to the level’s open-plan character, guests can socialise by cooking meals together, dining or kicking back on the sofa in the modern living room.
Summer feasts on warm evenings await on the large terrace, equipped to provide maximum comfort, allowing you to sip cocktails while watching the sunset. Alternatively, find a shady spot in the garden to savour morning croissants or relax by the swimming pool, where you can make the most of the incredible landscapes of distant hills and the Mediterranean.
Cap d’Antibes is popular with hikers and beach lovers because its rugged landscape offers many coastal trails, coves and hidden pocket beaches. You can find pretty vantage points and a lovely beach a short distance from the villa, while Antibes’ city centre is only a short drive away.
In Antibes, discover a buzzing dining scene and walk around the old town enclosed by imposing 16th-century ramparts overlooking the Port Vauban marina. There are also many museums, local markets and shops, while the beaches are stunning.
Luckily, you’re a comfortable driving distance from other well-known cities such as Cannes, Nice, and Monaco. You could also travel a bit further to discover the market town of Valbonne, the perfume studios of Grasse and yet more hilltop villages dotted across the flourishing landscape.

Location
About the surrounding area of Maison MarciaThe Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France boasts a varied landscape full of incredible natural scenery, romantic villages and a sun-drenched coastline.
Overlooking the Alps, the city of Nice and the sea stretching to the Italian coast, Maison Marcia is fantastically positioned on the East shores of the Cap D’Antibes peninsula – a picturesque area known for magnificent scenery and stunning beaches.
The closest sandy beach is only a 15-minute walk away and offers amenities such as sun beds and parasols for hire, a snack bar, and changing rooms.
Walking a bit further, you can reach Cap Gros, a scenic point to watch sunsets and admire the vast blue sea. Alternatively, you can join one of the many walking trails, such as the Le Sentier du Littoral, to reach more vantage points and places for swimming, such as the Escalier public with turquoise water.
When you get hungry, walk for 15 minutes to reach a local restaurant, while the more frequented area of Juan-les-Pins has a high concentration of eateries ranging from seafood bars to traditional French bistros. Luckily, the historic centre of Antibes is also just a short drive away, and you can find more local amenities here, such as a supermarket, boutiques, cafés and verdant parks.
In just 20 minutes by car, you can reach Cannes, a prestigious resort home to the famous international film festival. The city’s flashy character is well balanced by many parks, such as the Parc Naturel forestier de la Croix des Gardes, overlooking the city, bay and surrounding peaks. Discover its famous dining scene and visit its many beach clubs and bars before strolling around Vieux Port de Cannes and the Boulevard de la Croisette promenade – perfect for people-watching and catching sun rays.
Located at the foot of the French Alps and on the pebbly shores of Baie des Anges, Nice is a beautiful city worth exploring and only a 40-minute drive away. It boasts many interesting museums and art galleries, cosy restaurants, and sandy beaches. Some of the city’s most notable sights include the byzantine-style palace Cathédrale Saint-Nicolas de Nice and the Gothic church Basilique Notre-Dame de l’Assomption, both worth visiting if you have the time. After a long day, the best way to unwind is to walk along the bustling promenade Promenade des Anglais and end your afternoon with a picnic while admiring the twinkling Mediterranean sea.

Region
Despite being renowned for its annual international film festival in May at the iconic Palais des Festivals, Cannes is not just a glamourous destination for the rich and famous. The attractive Côte d’Azur town is loved all year round for its palm-fringed beaches, upmarket shopping opportunities and wonderful restaurants as well as a certain French Riviera charm.
Stroll along Cannes’ iconic La Croisette boulevard following the footsteps of stars from years gone by as you admire prestigious hotels, luxurious boutiques and private beach clubs. Stop off for a cocktail as the sun sets and admire the twinkling lights across the bay. Even at night, La Croisette remains the vibrant heart of this bustling town.
Shop to your heart’s delight along the streets of the Carré d’Or district – come across hundreds of well-known stores along Rue d’Antibes. At the end of a busy day there’s a vast choice of restaurants to suit every taste and budget from authentic bistros spilling out on to the street to Michelin starred establishments.
Soak up the historic side of Cannes as you explore Le Suquet quarter’s medieval lanes passing little shops, atmospheric restaurants, flower-filled balconies and old fishermen’s houses. Climb to the top of the hill by Église Notre-Dame d'Espérance for stunning views of the harbour, followed by a visit to Château de la Castre and its popular museum. This part of Cannes is also home to the colourful Marché Forville showcasing the very best gourmet delights of Cannes and beyond.
Escape the crowds as you venture to Croix Des Gardes natural park with forest walking routes, botanical plants and glorious views across to the Lérins Islands. Look out for some fantastic boat trips from Cannes’ marina from whale and dolphin-watching excursions to family adventures on board a chartered yacht, sight-seeing ferries and romantic sun-set cruises.
Beyond the city centre, visit the ceramic studios and National Picasso Museum in Vallauris, follow Picasso’s footsteps in the enchanting hilltop village of Mougins (loved for its galleries and gastronomy) and appreciate the artistic vibe of Biot with beautiful views of the French Riviera. Chic Juan-les-Pins, so loved by Parisians in the summer, is home to beachside restaurants and more watersports whilst keen walkers will adore the incredible coastal trail around Cap d’Antibes.
In the other direction is the charming seaside village of Théoule-sur-Mer, backed by the dramatic Esterel massif, another paradise for hikers. By staying in one of our collection of handpicked rentals in Cannes you can experience all of this and more during your time on the glistening Côte d’Azur.
Kids
Best Suited For: TeensChildren will love exploring the rugged Cap D’Antibes, its hidden beaches, and thrilling coastal walks. Plage de la Salis is ideal for family day outs as it has powder-soft white sand and clear, calm waters, plus it offers food stalls and convenient amenities such as sun bed rental and public showers.
Alternatively, explore the nearby botanical gardens, Jardin botanique de la Villa Thuret, opened in 1857 and housing exotic trees and plants in a 3.5-hectare park before admiring the architecture of Villa Thenard. The peninsula boasts a few small ports where you can wander around, such as the Port de l'Olivette and Port du Crouton, with fishing boats and yachts.
There’s plenty to do with children of all ages in Antibes, so why not head to the city and soak up the charming vibe? You can admire Pablo Picasso’s work in the Musée Picasso or visit the Musée Peynet Et Du Dessin Humoristique dedicated to a local cartoonist Raymond Peynet before exploring the family-friendly dining scene here.
If you’re looking for a way to entertain energetic teenagers, head to the Aquasplash Antibes – a waterpark with 20 water rides and a lazy river.
