Luxury villa on the French Riviera, near Nice

A luxury villa on the French Riviera, near Nice

We're not in Nice: we're in Cabris, in the hills behind Grasse, facing the Bay of Cannes.

If you're looking for a luxury villa in the South of France near Nice, let's be clear: Villa Plen Souleù is in Cabris, a hilltop village in the Alpes-Maritimes. Nice, Cannes and Grasse are our nearby landmarks, not our address — and that's exactly what makes the difference between a stay in the city and a stay in a former olive grove.

Why choose the hills over the coast

On the French Riviera, the coast concentrates the noise, the traffic and the August heat. In Cabris, Villa Plen Souleù offers the opposite: a fully air-conditioned 2,475 sq ft Provençal house, a fully enclosed garden planted with 27 century-old olive trees, tiered terraces and a pool all to yourselves. The sea, meanwhile, stays in sight: the view takes in nature, the sea and the Bay of Cannes. This is the balance our guests come looking for: the peace of a hilltop village in the Grasse hills, without giving up the geography of the French Riviera or the amenities of a high-end holiday rental.

Nice, Cannes, Grasse: three landmarks around Cabris

Nice

The main city of the Alpes-Maritimes and the usual gateway for travellers. Villa Plen Souleù is not located there: it is in Cabris, in the hills inland — something we'd rather tell you before you book than when you arrive.

Cannes

The Bay of Cannes is what lies before your eyes from the terraces of the property. Cabris is nicknamed the "balcony of the Mediterranean", and this view is the finest proof of it.

Grasse

Cabris belongs to the Grasse hinterland. It's a landscape of hills, dry-stone terraces and olive groves — the immediate surroundings of Villa Plen Souleù.

Cabris, our real address

A hilltop village in the Alpes-Maritimes, between sea and mountains. Villa Plen Souleù is rented directly by its owners, Eric and Estelle, who personally welcome every group of guests.
