Click to zoomVilla Amelie is a large four bedroom house situated in the village of Les Issambres which is about halfway between Cannes and St Tropez. It is about 50 minutes from Nice Airport, 30 minutes from Cannes and 30 minutes from Port Grimaud and St Tropez.

The villa has what must be one of the most breathtaking views on the Côte d'Azur. Every room (except the kitchen) has a panoramic sea view.Click to zoom

Nestling on a hillside above Le Petit Village Provencal, the villa has a commanding view looking down over cork tree woodland and the blue Mediterranean. The views extend from the little cove at the bottom of the hill across the bay to the red-tinted sandstones of the Esterel mountains with the snow-capped Alpes Maritimes providing a contrasting backdrop in the distance.

The cove (Plage de Bonne Eau) with its turquoise waters is a popular place for yachts to drop anchor for snorkling and to bask in the sun over lunch.

The house has electrically operated gates and is approached up a tree-lined driveway. The terraced gardens are filled with mature palms, cactus, bougainvillaea, hibiscus, jasmine, oleander, lavender and a variety of olive and fruit trees.

There is a beautiful mosaic tiled heated pool, with Roman steps, which looks out over the bay. From the lawned terrace above the pool you can drink in the stunning panoramic view. There are ample sunbeds and reclining loungers for sunbathing.

 

At night you can look down over the illuminated pool and palm trees and see the twinkling lights of Saint Raphael across the moonlit bay.

It is a short walk to the bottom of the hill where there are several small sandy coves, a bar, a selection of restaurants, mini-golf, tennis courts, a little church and a small supermarket for the essentials.

The villa is only five minutes drive from the restaurants and cafes of Les Issambres along the coast, and about ten minutes drive to Frejus in one direction and lively Ste Maxime in the other.
