Beachfront vacation rentals in La Madeleine, Nice

Honestly, this was probably the best Airbnb we’ve stayed at — and we’ve stayed in many across different countries. If you’re looking for a place to stay on the Côte d’Azur, just book this one. I spent over a week researching options, so I know pretty well what’s out there in this area, and I’m happy we ended up choosing this one. The location is amazing — literally one step from the beach. There’s a big grocery store right across the street, an underground parking garage, and a really nice infinity pool in the complex. The apartment itself is super well-equipped — everything is modern, from the blackout curtains to the shower. Villeneuve-Loubet turned out to be a great spot — calm and relaxing, but also perfect as a base to explore the French Riviera, Monaco, and even Italy (about 1.5 hours by car). Corinne was also a fantastic host — always quick to respond (usually within 5 minutes) and really helpful whenever we had a question. Highly recommended — we would love to come back!

This was a wonderful and affordable place to stay in Nice for 3. It is within walking distance of the beach or other attractions or public transport is close by and easy to navigate. Philippe was an excellent host and very proactive to check on us and communicate. We appreciate his kindness and all of his efforts to assure we were taken care of and felt welcomed.

Perfect place for Monaco Grand Prix week. Exactly as pictured - we spent hours on balcony with view of the yachts! Carlos communicated very well, very responsive, and accommodating to our needs.

Excellent location, could see the ocean from the living room! The beach was right across the road and tram station is 150m away. Anne was extremely responsive. Would highly recommend the apartment.

Lovely apartment and great space for a couple. Extremely walkable for shops and restaurants. Very close walk to the beach as well. Would highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay and the views were spectacular. Very helpful host who went out of her way to sort out an issue for us when we lost our way back to the apartment on our first night there! Marie Lawrence and her support team were wonderful and we are very grateful.

Lovely stylish and comfortable loft style apartment in the heart of the Old Town. Couldn’t be closer to restaurants and the beach. Historic building and very central location so certain compromises necessary (eg no lift so few flights of stairs to negotiate and bit of late evening noise from outside) but that’s all made clear in the property description and not really a big deal. Clear comprehensive and speedy communication from host Therese at all times.

Excellent nice and clean accommodation with direct access to the sea and a beautiful rooftop pool. The location is also great next to the Bay of Angels. Finally, Kevin is an exceptional host, very pleasant and helpful. we would gladly go back 😀

This Airbnb surpassed all expectations! The garden is designed like a fairy tale paradise, with hydrangeas and lush trees artfully arranged—every corner is worthy. The 180-degree floor-to-ceiling ocean views are breathtaking, waking up to the soothing sound of waves in the morning and falling asleep under the glow of sunset in the evening. It was the perfect finale to our island getaway.

Lovely stay at Delphines Airbnb. Perfect host, quick to respond to any questions about our stay, accessible enough area to the beach front, shops and restaurants as well as a short walk to the tram stop to take us into Old Nice.

If you have the opportunity to stay at Sun Bay House you are truly lucky. Philippe has created a beautiful oasis right in the middle of Villefranche-sur-Mer. He is an unbelievable host - the space is pristine and he has thought of every last detail. He gave us amazing recommendations for the area and we absolutely loved talking with him. We left feeling like we were leaving an old friend. We were torn between wanting to sight see around town but also not wanting to leave this beautiful property. Thank you Philippe for making our stay so perfect and special - the best way to end our honeymoon.

I couldn’t recommend Le Cabanon d’Isidore more highly. Wonderful, helpful host; a spotlessly clean, well-stocked, and thoughtfully designed and comfortable cabin; stunning views right from bed and from the yard outside; and a short walk to the beach, hiking trails, restaurants, and public transit that opened up access to the entire surrounding region.

Amazing stay! Walkable, great location! Beautiful rooftop.

I honestly can’t say anything was wrong with this place! We loved Seb’s apartment, it has everything you need and it’s so nice to be close to the beach. Not only that, but the view is amazing! Seb is an excellent host, super responsive, and has great recommendations!

We had a great stay at the apartment. It was spacious enough for four adults, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well equipped. Kevin is a great host—friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Joseph was a great host, he was very responsive. The apartment was spacious for the 2 of us and had everything we needed, including beach towels. The location of the apartment was perfect. Right on the water and easy walk to the train station and old Nice. The roof has a great view as well. So many good restaurants nearby and great beach clubs right across the street. We’d definitely stay here again!

Had a great stay! Lovely and thoughtful host. Opposite a nice bakery, super close to the beach, and extremely close to great transport links (the main tram lines are practically on the doorstep). Lovely private balcony - made even more private (in a great way) by a pretty tree. Would definitely come again!

Thanks Irina for the hospitality and we love the apartment ! It is located near to the Fabron station and 5 mins to the beach, which is very convenient for travllers to visit city center or nearby towns like Menton or Villefranche de mer. Also the apartment itself is very well decorated and maintained with beautiful view and balcony , definitely a good choice when you visit Nice .😊

We had a great time staying at Marc’s place, the place was located right next to public transport, grocery store and easily walkable bakery and beach. The offered us instructions and recommendations and were responsive always for and questions we had.

Maxime was an excellent host. He met us at the front door and showed us around the apartment. He was very helpful and responsive. The apartment is just what you see in the pictures. We especially enjoyed sitting on the balcony for breakfast and dinner. I highly recommend at stay at this wonderful apartment with beautiful view of the Azur Mediterranean.

The accommodation was practical for us for the days we were in Nice and had everything needed. Antonio's response was always prompt and friendly. We enjoyed our stay. 😊

An excellent place to call home during our visit to Nice. The apartment was 5 star on cleanliness, amenities, decor, location. Top appliances, well-equipped kitchen, beach chairs, air conditioning! It was really a joy to stay in a place that is everything we could have wanted; plus, restaurants and shops nearby. The walk to the beach was only a few blocks. (There is a flight of stairs from ground to first level, but it seems this is a customary in the old Nice neighborhood.) Our host, Nico was very friendly, responsive and helpful with all of our inquiries. We highly recommend Nico and his apartment to any visitor to Nice. Thank you, Nico!

Anne-Marie was very responsive to our e mails. And she stayed late to meet us on arrival. Flat was great for our stay We loved to sit out on balcony. Fair price for the accommodation. Plenty room for 4 adults. Very accessible for tram system. Didn’t take us long to find our way around. Loved our time in Nice.

We were let down by another company, Camille was more than accommodating, The apartment was in a fantastic location. Great communication and was very well equipped with lovely personal touches. I would love to return soon. Thank you 😊😊
