Villa Olivade. Panoramic Sea Views – Private Balconies, Terraces & Garden

Villa Olivade is a one-bedroom Provençal villa situated on the beautiful, privately gated, Domaine du Piol. Domaine du Piol's elevated position gives it unrivalled views to snow-capped mountains and the sea. The villa benefits from the sun starting in the early morning and throughout the day until it sets directly in front of the west-facing balcony. Throughout the day, you can enjoy the sunshine and views from either the balconies, the terrace or the sun deck. All of which are on different levels and all offer those essential, amazing views of the Cote d’Azur.

The balconies, large terrace and lower garden area are all private and exclusive to Olivade. No other property on the domaine offers the same amount of privacy or views.

The terrace has a large shaded Pergola with seating for 4 persons and garden lights mean you can eat late into the evening. Multiple adjustable wooden sun-beds on the terrace can be used for sunbathing or walk down to the lower sun deck which sits amongst palms, bamboo and grasses and is also equipped with adjustable sun-beds & parasol.

Villa Olivade Features: The villa is beautifully appointed and decorated throughout with stylish furnishings, marble bathroom, super-king wooden bateau-lit bed, quality kitchenware, air conditioning and WiFi.

You have a choice of areas for dining either inside or out including either our balcony on the top level or beneath the pergola on the terrace. There are many pretty spots to sit outside in the gardens and enjoy a glass of wine all offering different views either to the sea, mountains or surrounding area and villages.

There is a large, shared swimming pool on the Domaine with views to the sea and the Mountains.

Parking is right outside the villa. The parking is covered which is essential in the summer.

St Paul de Vence: The Medieval village of St Paul is just a 20-minute walk or a 5-minute drive away. Here you can stroll through the cobbled streets and enjoy some of the finest art available or watch petanque being played by the locals whilst enjoying a drink in the Cafe de la Place.

Opposite the Cafe de la Place is the famous Colombe d'Or. Voted one of the top 10 restaurants in the world, the Colombe D'or has the largest private collection of artwork in the world from Piccasso as well as work by Matisse and Renoir. Although a regular haunt for the rich and famous, the staff of the Colombe D'or makes everybody feel welcome.

An evening walk around the ramparts is recommended to catch the amazing sunset and see the swallows fill the sky. If you prefer, you can enjoy the same sunset from the villa!

The Côte d'Azur: The A8 which runs along the Cote D'Azur is just 10 minutes from Domaine du Piol and is your fast track to the most famous coastline in the world! Destinations such as Nice are just 15 min, Cannes 30 min, Eze 25 min, Monaco 30 min, Menton and the Italian border 35 min, .... the list goes on.

Heading out beyond Saint Paul there are many beautiful villages such as Vence, Tourette Sur Loup, Gordon and Grasse as well as famous institutions such as the Maeght Foundation, Ville Emprussi de Rothchild and National Parks like the Mercantour and Massif de l’Esterel.

Nice villa, beautiful view, very well located, within walking distance of St.Paul de Vence.
Nice setting, recently renovated, ideal for day trips to Monaco, Eze, Nice, Cannes, Grasse, etc. You can walk up to St.Paul de Vence for lunch or dinner. We really enjoyed our stay. Owner is friendly and reachable. Will surely return one day!

Charming St Paul villa
We came to St Paul de Vence for a week to prepare for a larger family gathering. Villa Olivade was the perfect spot for that. It was quiet and well appointed. The owner had thought of everything and was available by text to answer questions. We highly recommend this charming villa.

Olivade is a cozy villa with fabulous views of the mountains, sea and sunsets. We enjoyed breakfasts and many dinners on the balcony taking in the French countryside. Charming decor, excellently appointed, luxurious linens and monogrammed bathrobes! Over the top, helpful, responsive owners!

Great property and brilliant views
A very nice property and would recommend any couple to holiday there. Views are fantastic and location is easy walking distance to St Paul. Everything worked in the property and the shared pool is enormous. Only issue we had was the fridge / freezer was too small so had to shop more than we wanted. Had a great week there.

Wonderful villa
We had a wonderful stay in the villa, which has superb views and fantastic amenities. David was excellent in responding to our initial enquiry, answering our questions etc and gave extremely useful information about the area and restaurants to visit. We would definitely love to return and have already recommended Olivade to our friends. Many thanks David and Sally Ann!

The perfect spot for a romantic getaway
What a great week! The villa was exactly as described, with everything my wife and I needed to enjoy our time there. We didn't want to stay in the middle of everything in one of the beach towns, and we thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor space and mountain views while being close enough to easily head to any beach area we wanted. Since we got home, I've been missing our daily breakfasts overlooking the magnificent vista. Thank you David and Sally!

We had a very relaxing time at "Olivade". Nothing was too much trouble for the owners and they spent time and effort making sure we had a comfortable stay. The property is well represented on the website, the views are lovely and it is quite private. The only problem was noisy neighbours in the property backing on to the bedroom - they seemed to come home very late and make lots of noise. In spite of this we would very happily return as everything else was perfect. Well situated for many visits and the coast.

Villa Olivade is a magical place!
We had an amazing 5 night stay at Villa Olivade! Everything was perfect from the views of the lovely countryside to the sea in the distance. The villa was perfectly situated for either exploring the coast or the inland areas. The villa was well equipped and furnished. Sitting outside in the garden patios was one of our favorite past times, very peaceful and quiet. David and Sally were a delight to deal with. And, their attention to detail was extremely helpful. They were extremely responsive and helpful when we had questions. Thank you David and Sally for letting us experience your dream!

Perfect Oasis in the French Riviera - Exceeded All Expectations!
We stayed at this amazing property for a little over a week. It’s the perfect home base for day trips to various cities, from Monaco to St. Tropez. The location is close to shops, restaurants but still felt like a little oasis away from the hustle and bustle. It’s is even better than the pictures. The spectacular views and multiple balconies were breathtaking. We particularly loved the little olive tree on the porch and the stunning French Doors. The host, David, was incredibly kind and easy to communicate with. He provided a very thorough information packet that included recommendations, clear instructions on using various appliances, and the history of the villa. The strong air conditioning was a lifesaver in the hot weather, and the bed was extremely comfortable. One thoughtful touch was the cooler picnic backpack, which we used for a few outings. The home felt very safe, situated in a gated neighborhood, and the parking included was a big plus. A couple of minor things to note: while there is a washing machine, there's no dryer, so you’ll need to hang dry your clothes—but there were plenty of hangers available. Also, we occasionally ran out of hot water in the shower, but it was a small inconvenience in an otherwise perfect stay. Overall, we highly recommend staying here. The home exceeded our expectations in every way, and it was the perfect place to relax and recharge in the French Riviera.

Good quality accommodation with a priceless view!
We book 2 or 3 rental properties a year in different places, however an annual trip to the South of France has become established these last few years. We usually find it difficult finding a good quality property for 2, with outside space and a pool, and often end up having to book (and pay for) a larger property than we need. Domaine du Piol has been a real find - this is our 4th stay, and our second in Villa Olivade. This is our favourite due to the open space it provides on 3 levels as it’s built on a hillside, with 180° views to the south and west so it gets the sun on one of its terraces all day. The villa itself is furnished well and everything is provided. There’s every kitchen utensil to cater a gourmet meal, although our holiday cooking is more of the cold meat/cheese/salad/baguette supper after a nice lunch in one of the excellent restaurants nearby. Then it’s lovely sitting on the balcony with a glass or two of wine watching all the lights come on and the stars twinkle. The bedroom is also well furnished, with a very comfortable bed, and plenty of storage for clothes etc. The communal pool is very large and well kept. In late July there were only a few people in there; we’ve also been in August when it was a bit more crowded but still able to find a couple of spare sun beds. I’m sure we’ll be back.

Perfect house, perfect location, perfect service.
If you're looking for a charming, immaculately maintained small house close to the French Riviera but far enough away from its congestion to enjoy the vistas and the nearby mountains and their perched villages, the Olivade at Domaine de piol is the ticket to a perfect holiday. The charming house has every convenience in small, pampering its guests with sumptuous bedlinens, slippers, robes, soft towels. But its best feature is its location perched on a hill above the Riviera, with views of the mountains, the distant sea, the fields and holiday homes in an undulating landscape. Oh, and did I mention the sunsets? Our host was attentive, informative, responsive to each query, helpful at every turn. There is so much to do in the vicinity. St. Paul de Vence is a 5 minute drive up the road, with restaurants, cafes, shops, and best of all, twisting medieval streets. The drives in the mountains are a bit hair-raising and worth the thrill of spectacular views. More perched villages beckon. And within an hour the other way you can be in Monaco, or grab lunch in Italy. After such rich diversions, it's still a pleasure to come back to the villa, stretch out on the terrace lounge, or cook up a light dinner to eat on the balcony while you watch the sun set. There is no better view than the one out the French doors of the living room and also the bedroom. The house and environs is everything it is written up to be and perhaps even more. We were there in the spring. The weather was sunny and warm, but not warm enough yet for the pool. Still, it's hard to believe summer could improve upon the time we had. A happy sojourn awaits anyone who stops here.

Villa Olivade — komfortabler und ruhiger Rückzugsort
Einzigartig, privilegiert gelegene kleine Villa mit schönem, mehrere Ebenen umfassenden grünen Aussenbereich. Ruhiger, sehr gut ausgestatteter Rückzugspunkt nach einem aufregenden Tag voller Kunst —und Genussmomente in Nizza, Antibes oder Saint — Paul de Vence. Engagierter Gastgeber, der bereits im Vorfeld der Reise durch umfängliche Informationen zur Geschichte der Villa neugierig macht. Die Kommunikation mit ihm war sehr gut. Ein Hinweis sei erlaubt: ein kleines Auto ist eindeutig im Vorteil.

Idylle mit Panoramablick aufs Mittelmeer
So stellen wir perfekten Urlaub vor. Schon im Vorfeld erhielten wir jede Menge nützliche Informationen zum Haus, zur Umgebung, zur Historie des Objekts. Selten hatten wir so sympathische und hilfsbereite Gastgeber, die stets erreichbar waren, wenn sich Fragen ergaben. Das Haus an sich ist ideal für zwei Personen, sehr gut ausgestattet, es fehlte weder in der Küche und auch sonstwo an nichts. Der unverstellte Blick vom kleinen Balkon bis aufs Mittelmeer ist sehr romantisch. Das Gelände ist durch ein elektrisches Tor abgesichert, so dass man sich keine Sorgen über ungebetene Besucher machen musste. Zum Haus, welches wirklich ideal auf einem Hügel liegt, gehören zwei kleine Terrassen, die wir im Winter natürlich nicht nutzen konnten, aber sicher ist es herrlich, dort bei sommerlichen Temperaturen ungestört und unbeobachtet zu entspannen. Auf dem Gelände ist ebenfalls ein gepflegter Swimming Pool, der in der Saison sicher zusätzlich Freude bereitet. Der Ort Saint Paul de Vence liegt zu Fuß ca. 1 km entfernt, das kann man prima laufen. Wir haben die Ruhe und das stilvolle Ambiente des Häuschens absolut genossen und können das Objekt Paaren uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder, der Ort, die Region, das Haus... 100% unser Geschmack.

Coté aménagement, le propriétaire laisse tout à disposition : des livres, vélos, jusqu’au sac de pique-nique (notice de 40 pages bien détaillé).

Wunderschöner kurztrip
Die Lage und der Ausblick des Objekts sind wirklich sehr weiterzuempfehlen. Der Garten mit den Terrassen ist toll, um nach den Ausflugstagen zu entspannen. Die Wohnung war sauber und in Ihrem eigenen Stil eingerichtet - das Bett war super bequem. In der Küche hat dort und da mal eine Schranktür geharkt- sie war aber komplett ausgestattet. Die Eigentümer sind super freundlich. Jederzeit schnelle Antworten und auch ausführliche Tips weit über nur Informationen zum Haus und zur Buchung hinaus. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

Wonderful stay.
This villa felt like home. It was beautifully appointed in the provencal colors. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen well stocked with even paper towels etc. There was alot of helpful information from the owners and they answered any questions almost immediately. And the view was spectacular. Though St. Paul de Vence and a large modern mall were nearby, it was necessary to drive, for us. That was our only complaint and not with the owners. Many sites were nearby such as Antibes, Grasse etc. A very lovely stay. Would love to be there in the summer and use the lovely terrace, garden and pool.

We are just back from  2 ideal weeks at Villa Olivade and still very enthusiast. Booking the villa was very easy as David and Sally-Anne have been very informative, helpful and always quick to respond to any question or request. The location is ideal if you want to visit the region…..Antibes, Monaco, Menton, Eze, Tourettes sur Loup, Nice…..etc. The elevated position of Domaine de Piol gives an amazing sea and mountain view.   The villa is very well furnished and everything is there to have a comfortable stay. The share pool, very clean and quite, is only 1 mn walk from the villa   We thoroughly recommend Villa Olivade if you are looking for perfect holiday in a charming place

A BEAUTIFUL VILLA, STUNNING UNIQUE LOCATION
We recently returned (reluctantly) from an eleven-night stay at the fabulous Villa Olivade. We fully experienced perfection in every way, I’ve immediately booked to return later this summer, that rather sums up the quality of our experience there, (it is understandably very popular, so book early to avoid disappointment). The villa is beautifully appointed with three levels of outdoor space facing south & west; therefore it benefits from full day sun (but with shady options should you prefer). Uninterrupted views from the Domaine’s unique elevated position reach all the way to Antibes and the mountains to the west. We did walk around to get a feel of the other villas we had seen available for rent on the Domaine, amazing views from all aspects, but none compared to the views from Villa Olivade, it truly is one of a kind, the brightness, the airy, open, refreshing feel in spite of the heat is wonderful. The villa has everything you could possibly need. The rooms are bright & spacious, a beautifully appointed bathroom, plus an additional WC off the bedroom space. The kitchen is large, thoroughly equipped with new appliances; the extensive large work surfaces were super for food preparation (even by two people). The addition of a second larger fridge/freezer in a secure store on the terrace was totally appreciated (it minimalized the need for multiple supermarket trips). The store also houses an excellent bike for your use and secure storage for your own bike should you wish to bring one (speak to David about that!). David & Sally-Anne are fabulous hosts, utterly helpful and informative, always available and quick to respond. They provide a comprehensive information pack before you arrive. David & Sally-Anne have lived in France for many years, you have the privilege of their experience, they truly are a source of all knowledge over there. We chose not to hire a car, as we wanted to stay local to the area on this trip. We met with Lionel (David’s taxi recommendation); he was lovely, charming & punctual. For long or very short trips we would strongly suggest using Uber, very efficient, smart cars with good availability. Economic to use, Nice airport to the villa 28e, St Paul to the villa 6e. There are many excellent restaurants in the area (do your research before you arrive as the most popular require advance booking). Our favourites were (as in the past), La Colombe d’Or (we book three months in advance), Le Tilleul, Alain Lorca.

This is our second visit to Les Olivades. The property has a rustic feel with every modern convenience. We immediately feel at home as soon as we arrive. The rooms are airy and beautifully furnished. The kitchen has every appliance that you could possibly require. The views from the terrace are stunning. The outlying villages are some of the best in Provence, their restaurants and cafes first class. We will be back next year!

Beautiful villa with spectacular terrace views!
We had a perfect one week stay in this villa. One of the best features is the large French doors in both the living room and bedroom that let you soak up views of the Mediterranean Sea, mountains and lush landscape. There even is a big window in the kitchen with its own sweeping view! We really enjoyed having morning coffee on the balcony and wandering down to the lower terraces with a glass of wine at sunset. You feel like you are perched on a cliff overlooking the South of France...because you are! The interior is spacious and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is very large with high-quality appliances and all the equipment you need to whip up an omelette or a gourmet meal. The bedroom has a comfortable king size bed and plenty of closet and storage space. Bathroom is beautiful with Italian marble topped double vanity, blue and cream French tile work, and a good shower. (There’s also a second half-bath.) Living room has plenty of seating and a television set up to get several English-speaking channels like SkyNews, BBC, and CNN. This villa is very private and secure. It is within a nice gated community, built on a hill and filled with unique stone homes. We didn’t use it, but the shared pool looked crystal-clear and was only a minute away. Make sure you check out the view of St. Paul de Vence and the mountains from the parking area! Perfect place for a great “selfie”! Working with the owners was very easy. David sent us lots of info ahead of time and has directions for EVERYTHING in a kitchen drawer, in case you might have a question. He even recommended and made reservations for us at La Colombe d’Or, a historic restaurant with a superb collection of art by Picasso, Miro, Calder, and other greats. It was a highlight of our vacation! It really was difficult for us to leave this villa at the end of our stay. What a great find!
