Holiday Rentals in Valbonne - A Guide to Valbonne
Holiday rentals in Valbonne are located just a 20 minute drive inland from the Mediterranean coastal resort of Antibes, in the department of Alpes-Maritimes, in the Region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur.
Valbonne is also only a stone’s throw from Nice and Cannes. (see our ‘holiday rentals in Cannes’ page for more information).
Nice airport is just 25 kilometres from your holiday rentals in Valbonne, heading along the coast on the A8 Autoroute and then turning inland through the Parc International d’Activite de Sophia.
I’d recommend hiring a car for the trip, to fully explore the glorious countryside and coastal resorts in the area. For the best deals on car hire in Valbonne, click on the car hire link above this article.
Types of Holiday Rentals in Valbonne
There are many villas and houses to rent in Valbonne, many of them really beautiful, and a reasonable selection of apartments too.
I did manage to find a really lovely 1 bedroomed apartment to rent in Valbonne, which comes with shared use of a swimming pool and great views out over the mountains. Prices are not bad at all considering the proximity to Cannes.
As an alternative, I found a fantastic 3 bedroomed villa to rent in Valbonne. Located on a private domain, this villa is truly stunning, with a great deal of privacy. There are extensive gardens and a great swimming pool and the décor is superb throughout. Considering the above, I believe the rental prices to be excellent value for money.
Valbonne Useful Information
You’ll find your Valbonne holiday rentals in a rather unusual old village, which, unlike most medieval villages in this region, is laid out in a very symmetrical grid-like manner.
The 16th Century origins of the village are still very evident, though much of the original ground floors of the original properties are part below ground nowadays.
The old village is surrounded by luxury apartments and residences for those working at the nearby technology park.
Holiday rentals in Valbonne are very well positioned to explore the famous coastal towns of St Tropez, Monaco, Nice and Cannes (see our ‘holiday rentals in St Tropez’ page for more information), but you’ll also find ski resorts only 40 kilometres inland as well as many other villages scattered about the mountains, making the village a great destination / base for both winter sports and summer sun.
