Finding your perfect villa rental for a holiday can be daunting, especially for a group of people. The array of locations and companies to choose from can get confusing and hard to sort through when trying to find the best choice. What do I need to ask? How do I decide where is best? We have created a helpful checklist to ensure a smooth and simple booking process before arriving at your dream villa.
Pip-point what most
important to you

Have a clear vision in your mind of what you want from your
holiday experience. Would you prefer a quiet, private hideaway or a villa that
is seafront? Are you looking for something with modern interiors and design or
traditional features and charm?
If you need staff, drivers or private security it is best to
let us know in advance so that they can be easily organised in good time before
your holiday. It is important to communicate your needs as clearly as you can
to a specialist rental company such as Elegant Address South of France, so that
our experts can efficiently match you with your ideal rental property for the
perfect holiday experience.

| ST-001 is a stunning beachfront villa in St Tropez |
You may prefer to be ‘close to a beach’ but there are a few
to choose from along the French Riviera coastline so you’ll need to be sure
where you would prefer to be. People enjoy visiting particular areas for
different reasons, for instance if you want to see the Grand Prix you need to
be in, or near Monaco, and if you want to be close to beaches, shopping and
glamour you would choose Cannes or St Tropez. Even if you prefer a more quiet
and cultural trip there are beautiful medieval towns that will charm you and
invite you back each year. There really is a place for every taste on the Cote
d’Azur, just try to narrow it down to your top 3 to help rental specialists
find your perfect villa.
Have a budget in mind
It can be difficult to create and set a specific budget,
especially if this is your first time visiting this region. You don’t have to divulge
this information straight away, but it is always a helpful indicator for the
specialists to know the limits of what you are willing to spend for the level
of villa and lifestyle that you are looking for. A price range will really help
narrow down our search, helping us to give you a clear overview of the market
and what we can offer.

Browsing villas on an agent’s website can give you a good
idea of the property with images and description, but to find out the finer
details and inside knowledge it’s best to talk to a specialists – That’s what
they are there for! We know the regions inside out. We pride ourselves in our unrivaled level of knowledge of each region on the French Riviera and can
recommend villas first-hand and answer questions you might not have thought of
such as “Where is the nearest grocery store? What is the best local restaurant?
How long is it to drive to the nearest beach?” Our specialist consultants also
has access to more rentals that are in our private portfolio or that are new to
market that they can offer to you after your ideal property.
Take advantage of
extras

There are many of our rental properties that offer
additional services and luxurious extras such as private chef, helicopter
transfer, personal driver or even sometimes a boat with the villa. When
enquiring about a property it’s always useful to see whether there are any of
these services included in the rental price or if the rental has any trusted
companies they regularly use or could recommend at a fair price. We have a
great team of trusted contacts on the ground, allowing us to organise concierge
services or any special requests with ease and discretion, allowing you to sit
back and relax, with the arrangements in place to allow you to focus on enjoying
the very best of the French Riviera.
