Cannes Villa Francia | Cote d'Azur | France | Keycamp Apartment Holidays

Overview

At a Glance

Overlooking the thrills of the city, Cannes Villa Francia is situated on a quiet, residential hillside. Its ideal location means that Cannes Villa Francia is perfect for Pimms by the pool, a good book and some Factor 15. With the rattle and buzz of Cannes just a telephoto lens away, this is the place to head for those in search of lazy afternoons and unforgettable views over the Bay of Cannes. Eventually though, the lure of the sensual city is hard to resist. Especially when you witness the shops along the Rue Maynadier, the sexy yachts moored along Albert Edouard pier, and the people watching opportunities along the Croisette promenade.
