Not much help but I like Juan Les Pins rather than Nice - it's only down the road. We stay at the Hotel Ambassadeur during the Jazz Festival. If you are ever in Juan don't miss the dancing girls and cocktails at the Pam-Pam bar!...my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

You'd be much better off renting a cottage nearby if you'll have access to a car IMO. Last time I went to the south of France, 4 of us rented a cottage in a place called Gonfaron (halfway between Nice and Marseille). It had 5 bedrooms and a private pool - all for £500 for the week.Comment

Thanks, I wont have a car, I looked into renting cottages and flats, I wanted something which is a walking distance from the old town and from the beach, the only ones with that criteria are hotels. The prices are really dear though, I don't have my heart set on Nice, I'd welcome any other suggestion. I intend to go last minute, perhaps this weekend or early next week.Comment

You can rent a flat in Antibes quite reasonably. Train or taxi (£35 from Nice Airport). The old town is nice, the beach is free (ISTR) but not very large - a lot of people walk/bus into Juan Les Pins, where the beaches are nicer (but expensive). It's a nice part of the world....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

Originally posted by zamzummim View PostThank you very much, googled Juan Les Pins and it looks exactly what I need, it also looks close to several airports, which is the best airport to travel to(i.e. cheapest flights ? Nice ?)
Frejus is too far out of the way.
I would rent a car. There are plenty of lovely places to visit. Gourdon, Biot, Opio, Mougin etc.
I spent a couple of years working out there. Loved it!Comment

Don't forget the Pam-Pam bar - if you get there before 21.00 you get free canapes!...my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...
