About this villa rental

Our villa is an ideal retreat for families, friends and couples. IT IS ALSO AVAILABLE FOR LONGTERM RENTAL. It is in a quiet neighborhood with expansive views of the sea and mountains and wonderful hikes from our doorstep. Designed by a student of Le Corbusier, this villa combines Provencal charm (stuccoed walls and tile roofs) with an open modern plan, all arranged on a few levels with a full pool and spectacular view of the Mediterranean You can see a panorama extending from The hills of Monte Carlo to the Croisette of Cannes, all while lounging by the pool beside fruit and olive trees, sipping on the local Vin du Var.

We have recently redone the grounds (doubling the usable space) added beautiful terraced lawns, replaced all kitchen appliances and added high speed Fiber optic WiFi internet and TV.

We accept weeklong stays and longer, and provide discounts for longer term rentals, up to one year.

We are in a nature district, so great hikes up mountain streams or along the foothills of the Maritime Alpes are nearby. Vence, a charming hill town is 5 minutes away, filled with delicious boulangeries, boucheries, fromageries and boutiques. St. Paul de Vence, with its famous galleries, museum and boule court, is 10 minutes away. Haute cuisine restaurants, including the renowned Chateau St. Martin, from modest to extravagant, are peppered throughout the neighborhood, and both Nice and Cannes, with their famous promenades, hotels, museums, beaches and shopping are 20-30 minute drives.

This is our family home, which my parents purchased after traveling to the Cote d'Azur for thirty years and searching for the perfect perch above the sea. It possesses charms for young and old, loungers and sightseers, athletes and intellectuals, connoisseurs and folks who just want to chill. It is not luxurious, but it is comfortable, serene and tasteful. It is the most relaxing place I know.

I have had to shorten this due to character limit. Full review can be emailed. -No hot water for 3-4 days- not acceptable to shower outside with parents on 70’s and 2 kids. -Poor communication while waiting to resolve hot water issues. -Blocked kitten sink/drain for last 2 days. -2 bathroom sinks require repair- I don’t expect to find raw plugs wedged in them to keep them operational. -Dirty kitchen upon arrival that needed us to clean and wash a number of units and utensils. We did not clean on top of the cupboards or the light fitting which were thick with grease and dust. -Towards the end of our stay the drainage from the dishwasher to the sink became blocked and for the last three days we had to empty the water in the two sinks by hand into one of the toilets. We could not empty it into the drain by the back door because that too was blocked. -2 broken pool umbrellas for the first 4-5 days of the stay (one was then replaced). Undoubtedly the position of the villa, the pool and gardens are spectacular, but this did not make up for the discomfort and inconvenience we experienced which do not align to what we paid for the stay. I await your comments/suggested resolution.

Many thanks. We had a wonderful time. Superb views. Probably the best of Cote d' Azur. Very accommodating and friendly property manager too.

Beautiful villa, superb location

A wonderful holiday home with the most amazing panoramic views. It was so beautiful and peaceful we came home from our holiday feeling relaxed, refreshed and re-energized. We loved the house, it was quirky, unusual and provided a wonderful sense of space. The house could perhaps benefit from a little TLC - it felt a little tired and dated particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. But Boris was very responsive and fixed any issues whilst on our holiday. Overall, we absolutely loved it and hope to return.

I have been renting European villas with my family for 35 years and found Villa Le Piol to be at the top of my list. The location is ideal for relaxing by the pool and spending time in a peaceful atmosphere. It is away from the glitz of the Cote de Azur, but close enough to enjoy Cannes, Nice, Monte Carlo within a 10-30 minute drive. The house is an architectural wonder with all the conveniences and with access to supermarkets, restaurants and shops within a very short drive into Vence center. Patrice and Boris were extremely helpful in taking the time to explain all the house details and to recommend local landmarks and restaurants.

We have stayed at Le Piol on several occasions in the past 5 years, most recently in June this year. It is accurately described by the owners as a place of great serenity and we have always (even, now, with a young family) found it to be relaxing and invigorating. The outside space is simply spectacular and the villa is cleverly designed to encourage outdoor living. The views are breathtaking; the entirety of the Riviera is on display and the play of light and colour throughout the day, but particularly around sunset, is quite magical. The immediate region is charming; Vence is an appealing place to spend time (a stroll around the old town followed by a coffee and an ice-cream is time well spent) and St Paul de Vence is laughably pretty. Le Piol is well-placed for day trips, including to the coast, which is accessible by car, but we have tended to spend most of our time enjoying the simple pleasures the villa offers. We could not recommend it more highly and look forward to our next visit.

Exceeded expectations!!
Exceeded expectations!!
The phrase "exceeded expectations "may be overused in advertising, and we had been to the VRBO website, but there is no other way to describe our reaction and that of our guests as we took in the view from the porch for the first time. And we felt that way with each sunrise and sunset! We were all intrigued by the design and furnishings in the living rooms, and how eight adults could gather together or find individual space. We did our best at sampling the local cuisine, both at the villa and away. The garden setting (and people watching) at Le Colombe d'Or was wonderful; the food, we felt, did not match that level. Your recommendation of Chateau St. Martin was fulfilled, and the food matched the setting on the terrace.

I've been meaning to send you a note - we are back from our trip and had the most amazing time in your beautiful villa, it is paradise. We enjoyed so much in 3 short days - day trips to Nice, Cannes, and even a drive to Monte Carlo - the boys loved looking at all the fancy cars outside the casino. We went to the Matisse and Chagall museums in Nice, and the Matisse chapel in Vence. We also found our way to the river and enjoyed a fabulous hike and swim in the waterfalls - the kids were in heaven! Finally, my favorite - St. Paul de Vence - a journey back in time. Incredible! Thank you so much for everything - the villa is a really special place and we hope to return someday.
