We are a family of 6 adults who stayed at La Pokade from 22-29July 2023. The villa was well situated for our needs, close to bars, restaurants and the beach (need a car) but quiet and private when at the villa. The villa has a lovely well maintained pool. The outside kitchen/ dining area was well used. The bedrooms were clean and well appointed and the kitchen had everything that you could need for a short stay. The villa itself has a good level of comfort, but also keeping the feeling of a family home. There are two points that I wish to make. One is on the VRBO website which states arrival from 5pm, with no cut off time. I have spoken to the owner who assured me that house rule no2 states a check-in time of 5-8pm. I haven’t been able to find that, but it did require me to negotiate with the owner prior to arrival as we were well outside that time frame. We did come to an amicable agreement. The other point is that many of the plates and mugs were chipped. I flagged that to the owner who was happy to sort it out on his next visit to the property. As a family we enjoyed our experience at La Pokade very much. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful.

We loved the house. It was very comfortable and spacious for 4 adults and 5 children. The house was clean and it is very well equipped, the kitchen has all you need to make yourself at home. The two grills made barbequeing easy for two families. The pool, the house and the gardens are regularly maintained. The kids and us loved the pool and playing games in the garden. Thanks to Michel and his sister for being helpful, friendly and always available. Overall, we loved our stay at Michel's house.

great house - not luxury but very comfortable. The bathrooms were new but the bath towels really small. AC in the whole house working fantastically in the very hot weather. The floor and windows were pretty dirty though... well equipped kitchen. Great pool with sun through the whole day 4 good sized rooms - the fifth is absolutely impossible to sleep due the terrible mould /damp smell. It is also located besides the BBQ and doesn't have AC To pay attention: - the daughter of the manager, who can do the cleaning, has only Saturday morning available. She wanted to charge 100 euros just to change the sheets and towels...no real cleaning included - The management is kind of tricky as the manager hardly spoke English. - the neighbours houses are very close, cross your fingers nobody is loud (we had to listen to some loud music) - rent a small car as the access to the house is though a lane with traffic from both sides and they don't drive slowly

Fabulous villa. We were a group of friends together from around the world, some with children and some without. The layout was perfect with a beautiful private garden and a large pool. Worth getting up early to watch the sun rise over the ocean bay as many times as possible! We stayed for two weeks and it was a true home from home. Can't wait to go back.

This house was a highlight of our trip to France. We had a wonderful stay for a week and would be delighted to return. Sitting by the large pool with the birds singing above was so relaxing, so inspiring. It was a perfect location to use as a base to visit this wonderful part of France. There is so much to see in the Riviera, but we also wanted to make certain that we spent time enjoying the house and pool. We did some wonderful sightseeing including Cannes, Antibes, Nice, Monaco, Saint Paul de Vence, Grasse and Gourdon. We spent a full day at the beach in Juan Les Pins. But we really enjoyed our time at the house, particularly playing boules (the French petanque) and ping pong as a family. The owners made us feel very comfortable and gave us a lot of good recommendations. Everything in the house was top notch, including the gourmet kitchen and the large bedrooms, which made our trip even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this house for your French Riviera vacation!

« Villa La Pokade » is a delightful, spacious holiday home on the French Riviera. It is situated on the hills above the seaside village of Golfe-Juan at a very short distance from Cannes and Antibes and the beach. We have yet rented several houses on the French Riviera and this was easily the nicest. We had a family reunion there with nine people, coming from different continents. We landed in Nice just 15 miles away. We were delighted with the clean, modern, spacious living and sleeping accommodations of the house, its private bathrooms, its super well-equipped kitchen inside the house, the large outdoor summer kitchen where we spent our evenings and the large garden with its infinity pool. It was also convenient to have parking for up to eight cars. The owner provided excellent customer service. The way the house is laid out gave us more than enough room and we never felt in each other’s way. We often had different activities going on simultaneously. The second floor bedrooms provide a quiet reading refuge. The high-speed Internet with wifi throughout the house enabled those who were on a working holiday to operate a full work schedule. In the main living room others could watch international sporting events on the cable TV with major US channels. Outside, the very private terraces, the summer kitchen, the sun bathing areas or the lower Mediterranean garden and the pool by the side for a refreshing dip offered something for everyone. The kitchen is exceptionally spacious well equipped so that a number of cooks can operate simultaneously. Each generously sized bedroom has its own private bathroom. The teenagers had regular table tennis tournaments by the pool, others played pétanque in the shade of plain trees. Just a short walk from the house (or a quick car ride), we found four well-kept tennis courts at the Courcettes, which we were almost always available. For our excursions we loved the open markets in Cannes and Antibes, the beach which is only one mile away, the extraordinary choice of museums between Cannes and Monaco and the beautiful villages of the backcountry. Also the Gorges du Loup, the Parc of Mercantour and St Tropez were all within reach of the house. All in all, Villa La Pokade is a beautiful Provençal house that has been modernized and furnished to a superb standard to comfortably meet the needs of 9-10 people. We would highly recommend it to anyone as the ideal holiday home on the French Riviera.

This house is simply stunning. We stayed there for a week in September. It is conveniently located, and allowed us to explore the beautiful Provence very easily. The house and grounds are tastefully decorated and maintained, gorgeous garden and pool, perfect to laze around and enjoy the hot south of France sun and have aperitifs with friends. I highly recommend it.
