Beautifully renovated townhouse for 4 guests in Antibes with outdoor space.
A rare find, this beautifully renovated townhouse shines with historic charm and contemporary flair on the most picturesque cobblestone street in ancient Antibes.
Enjoy the rustic character of the Old World and the luxury of modern conveniences. Located on idyllic Rue du Bateau, by the medieval ramparts of the Old Town, and just across the narrow cobble-stone street from the Picasso Museum, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom townhouse is a bright and airy work of art.
Meticulously renovated with comfort and style in mind, Maison du Bateau is your painting-perfect home during an unforgettable stay on the Côte d’Azur. Although guests are just steps away from gorgeous sandy beaches, delightful shops and restaurants, and the wonderful Provençal farmer’s market, the setting is quiet and peaceful just what you need for rejuvenating days and restful nights.
The pastoral charm of Provence and the elegance of the French Riviera can be found throughout the townhouse, in its lovely oak finishes, exposed stone walls, and hand-made tile work.
While preserving the quaint and historic essence of the property, we have fully updated the home to include world-class, contemporary amenities so our guests’ every desire is thoughtfully considered and fulfilled.
Perfect for four guests, the two bedrooms are generously appointed with dreamy mattresses, plush pillows, and high-thread-count linens, while the bathrooms are stocked with luxury bath products.
With air-conditioning and heating throughout the house, guests can comfortably lounge, relax, and enjoy a large Samsung LED TV with access to Netflix, AppleTV, and cable channels. Free high-speed Wi-Fi provides even more entertainment options.
Shop the nearby farmer’s market for fresh local seafood, olives, goat cheese, Cavaillon melons, rosé wines, and other regional specialties. And bring your ingredients back to the farmhouse-style kitchen, which comes with everything you need to make a gourmet meal—a chef-quality oven and stove, dishwasher, microwave, and Nespresso machine, as well as all the cookware, utensils, dishware, and stemware.
Take your coffee, your wine, or your home-cooked meal to the shared courtyard, where you can fully experience the restorative beauty and pace of French village life. The property comes with all the necessities of home: bluetooth speakers in the bedrooms, washer/dryer, iron and ironing board, hair dryer, baby cot, and high chair. Each bedroom can be configured to one king-sized bed or two twin beds.
Maison du Bateau allows guests to savor their French Riviera holiday without the hassle or worry of a car (underground parking is available within a five-minute walk at 61 Euros/week).
Cultural sights, cafes, boutiques, grocery stores, restaurants, bars, and the sparkling turquoise waters of the Mediterranean are all just meters from your doorstep. A five-minute walk from the house, the lovely Plage de la Gravette is a small beach that is great for families with young children, as it is sheltered from the waves by a breakwater. As a special touch, beach bags and large beach towels are all ready to go so guests can head straight for the beach.
Our local agent is available to answer your questions during your stay. Antibes is conveniently located about 20 minutes from Nice Airport. Within Antibes, there are a train and bus station which can take visitors to many of the local attractions including Cannes, St. Tropez, Nice, Monaco, Aix-en-Provence, etc. Antibes is a perfect vacation destination.
Antibes has restaurants and shops that are open all-year long and is a great place for visitors to use as a base for exploring the region.

Great Place to Stay in Antibes
We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Maison du Bateau. The home is well equipped and comfortable. We liked that it was in walking distance to the markets, shops, and restaurants of Old Town and only a fifteen minute walk to the rail station.

Great holiday house in old Antibes
Beautifully restored house in a great location in the old town, right next to the Picasso museum, the Market, and a stone’s throw from the sea. We enjoyed shopping in the market and cooking for ourselves as well eating out. Good for anyone who likes to holiday without a car as everything is on the doorstop, and you might struggle to park if you did have a car. We used the coastal train for our excursions, but chose to spend time in Antibes too. Very warm welcome from owners Paul and Tom. Thank you.

All mod cons in a beautiful, old building
This property is full of character, tasteful and so well equipped we could not think of anything that it doesn't have. The ancient street is peaceful and tranquil but a two minute stroll takes you to Antibes' fabulous, Provencal market and the many restaurants and bars of the old town. We loved everything about our stay and have resolved to return.

Absolutely charming!!!
Beautiful property in the center of Antibes. Very, very clean. True French interior and exterior design is outstanding. Lovely territory in the garden with a garden table and chairs. The place has everything you need from towels and beach bags to every kitchen accessory you can imagine. The English lady Susan, who greeted us, was very very nice to communicate with. Tom and Paul sent me all the details in an instant plus all the information about Antibes, superior communication. 12 stars out of 10, my best recommendations.

Incredible Antibes Rental Property
We stayed 4 nights at this property, which is wonderfully renovated while retaining the rustic old town location it deserves. Everything worked beautifully, the location is unmatched and the ease of communication and assistance with the owners and manager was fantastic. When you see the location on the map you will wrongfully assume it will be noisy because of it's proximity to great restaurants and the market. On the contrary, every night (including the weekends) was one of restful, quiet and calm sleep. The point of contact, Suzanne, was personable, flexible and had great recommendations for our stay. When we return to la Cote d'Azur we will stay in Antibes just so we can return to this property!

This is the Place to Stay on the French Rivera
Staying at Maison du Bateau for the month of March 2017 was an absolute treat. Owners Paul & Tom have created a gem of a home for all their guests while on holiday. The web site describes exactly what awaits the visitor, so I will not repeat all the amazing amentities. From the initial booking correspondence, through to the deposit payments and security deposit refund all was smooth and efficient. Even though our flight arrived four hours earlier than anticipated, Suzanne our contact was their to greet us with all the necessary information to complete our stay.
Kudos to the interior designers, for the entire house, special mention on the master bedroom from the furnishings and the one window with a view of a wall of ivy and the other with streaming sunshine make for a room that can only be described as refined comfort. The second bedroom allowed for sitting at the window in the sunshine, which allows anyone to thoroughly enjoy reading and writing. And all other rooms in the house were equally enjoyable. And the skylights were an added joy. And the kitchen a delight for any cook.
Antibes is definitely the place to be while in the South of France, I truly understand why Paul & Tom chose this area to be their home. It is close to the bigger cities of Nice and Cannes and the Italian border is just an hour away. And while Antibes Old Town is just as popular, still gives the feeling of peace & quiet. Taking the train and local bus is within easy walking distance, five minutes to the bus and less than fifteen minutes to the train. And if you prefer to just stay in Antibes, there are many places to sit and walk and relax.
March can have fickle weather anywhere in the world, but the weather gods were on our side providing blue skies, sunshine and temperatures ranging from15-19 degrees daily except for three half days of rain.
Once again, Antibes is the place to be, in one of the homes that Tom & Paul have made available for visitors.

Outstanding accommodation. This place is superb.
This property is magnificently equipped and provides so many extras as well. It is luxurious and spacious and yet is next,ed into the old town in a beautiful location. 50metres away is a daily food market each morning and I think is just a few minutes more walk to bigger shops, restaurant and cafes. It is a solid 15 minute walk to the station (Gare de Antibes) which is not really possible if you have luggage. You need to use a taxi which stops nearby because it the property is on a pedestrian only street/lane way.
The communication from the owners was excellent and we were met and shown around by Suzanne who who not have been more helpful. She also saw us off at the end when we left.
This really is a lovely place to stay and the property is first class in every way.
We would certainly stay again if in Antibes.

Perfect combination of style...location and comfort for your time in Antibes.
We recently spent a week in Maison du Bateau. Booked very far in advance with Antibes-Rental as their properties are very popular. All communications were replied to promptly and booking process very easy. Advance detailed info was very much appreciated including restaurants in case you want to pre-book. Their recommendations were very good. This stylish two level townhome has a perfect location in the heart of the old town of Antibes and I cannot imagine staying anywhere else in the city. The famous Marche Provencal is just 1/2 block away and it is the best place for shopping. We did lunch in the townhouse...all fresh from the market. We did not even begin to use all the gadgets in the kitchen...it was stocked with everything you could need as was the entire townhouse. If you have mobility issues probably not your spot as bedrooms are upstairs. There is no apt. on top and it was very quiet. There are other apt that share a courtyard. They were all very respectful of each other. The townhouse does have a small table outside but it was hot and we mostly stayed inside when home. The a/c is modern and central...none of those antique units you often find in rentals. Suzanne was the greeter and very helpful in both check in and check out ...we really had no issues so did not need to contact her. I really searched to find just the right spot in Antibes and this was it. Antibes itself also is small enough (especially in the old town) to feel comfortable but so easy to visit other spots on the coast or inland. I highly recommend Antibes-Rental and this townhouse and hope to return.

EXTRAORDINARY...A GEM OF A PLACE!!!
My wife and daughter found this wonderful place online, and when I walked in I could hardly believe my eyes: not only is the house located in the best, most centrally located part of the old town of Antibes, but it's also perfectly quiet even with the windows wide open at night (which is how we like to sleep). The house itself is a work of art: tastefully and lovingly furnished and decorated, well-appointed and yes...one might even say luxurious (but in a non-ostentatious way). To put it simply: I cannot think of a better place to stay than here if you have a week or two to explore the many wonders in this corner of the world where countless amazing sights await the curious traveler within only a short walking or driving distance of this most special home. Kudos to Tom and Paul who have done a terrific job of restoring this property to its glory days!! We will hold special memories of 14 Rue du Bateau for as long as we live...

Superb
We recently stayed at Maison du Bateau, friends had recommended a holiday in Antibes and also Antibes Rental. We were not disappointed. The location of Maison du Bateau provided easy access to the farmers market and many wonderful restaurants. It was a easy walk to the railway station making it easy to travel to other tourist spots. We loved the experience of staying in the old village.
The accommodation was excellent, the owners have thought of everything. We loved the place as soon as we walked inside, the property is both stylish and beautify appointed and with its superb location we felt at home immediately. We will have no hesitation in recommending this property to any of our friends or family. We look forward to staying there again.
