A Real Vacation...French Riviera Style


How to truly experience the best of the French Riviera

Thinking about your summer vacation this year?

Why not make this year's vacation, not just a vacation....but an unforgettable experience.  

If you plan now, NICE PROPERTIES new Property Rental Service can help you find THE place to spend your summer basking in the Mediterranean sun with your family or friends and enjoying those panoramic sea views poolside.

While spending your holidays might be "convenient" and "easy"in a hotel, the experience of "living" in a beautiful rental property with breathtaking views is the most authentic way to spend your vacation in a most private and tranquil ambiance.  

If you do prefer the 'service' aspect, there are always concierge and personnel staff services that can attend to your every need.

Whether you seek to rent a private hilltop villa in Villefranche Sur Mer, seaside home in St.Jean Cap Ferrat, apartment with panoramic sea views and a large terrace in Cannes, NICE PROPERTIES is your link to the French Riviera.

Your summer sanctuary.  Share your coffee with the quiet morning sunrise,  relish the refreshing plunge in the pool after a day at the beach or on the boat, lay back in the chaise lounge with your evening aperitif taking in the evening sunset's deep fuscias and golds reflecting in the glassy calm sea.

Moments unlike no other.

Banking on year round tourism...Rental Investment Properties in Old Nice


Named the Vieux Ville...Old Nice has all the right ingredients for investment.


As you meander through the winding narrow streets of the Vieux Ville in Nice, also known as the Old Nice, it is hard not to feel like you have just been transported back in time as you soak in the warm shades of sienna, yellows and ochre of the Baroque style buildings quaintly dressed with their wooden French window shutters.

A unique ambiance unlike any other, the Old Nice is a vibrant place that is full of small shops, bars au vin, pubs, brasseries and cozy traditional Nicois restaurants (many of them family run) that are busy all throughout the year.  Tourists, students, and locals alike continually flow through this area enjoying the colorful scenery…just like the ones found on the postcards.

Housed under striped umbrella shades, the iconic Cours Saleya famous for its fresh flower market, dotes many local vendors selling their wares of locally grown produce, herbs and spices, artisan cheeses and charcuteries as well as an incredible display of antiques on Mondays. This is one of the most enjoyable areas to have lunch or a glass of wine amidst the buzzing ambiance. 

For these reasons, it comes as no surprise that the Old Nice is an ideal place for rental investment properties.  Banking on the steady stream of year round tourism and an ideal location that is in walking distance to the beach, the port, the city center, shops and restaurants makes for a very secure return on rental income.

One and two bedroom furnished flats are ideal if you are looking to quickly begin making a return on your investment because they are highly sought out rentals either to tourists, students or locals.  You can also find larger family style apartments that are very popular as vacation rentals.

The Old Nice is definitely an ideal place to consider if you are interested in growing your real estate portfolio quickly with the right ingredients for a secure investment.
