Apart from its sunny beaches and sweet fresh air, the
French Riviera is all about botanical bliss too. Natural wonders are abundant in this beautiful destination, even when it has a good number of bustling towns. The lively luxury that never fails to draw in tourists doesn't overshadow the lush greenery and fascinating flora that make up Southern France. So imagine if you could rent a French luxury villa with an idyllic garden. Some are nature-centric escapes that you can make all your own. Others are private pools surrounded by lush greenery. What more could you ask for?
1921
There's a lot of greenery in this lovely large five-bedroom villa in
Cannes that you almost never want to leave. It doesn't have a big garden, but its lush lawns and exotic trees provide such botanical bliss. Many would regard the private pool as the estate's best part and they're not exactly wrong about that. But let's not deny that the surrounding greenery creates a more beautiful setting for the pool and the villa as a whole. If you don't want to swim, you can always hang out in the garden, sit under the shade, and relax.
One-Bedroom Apartment with a Garden Terrace
Despite how limited the space this one-bedroom
apartment in Cannes offers, its private garden is enough to make it worth renting. It's an enchanting oasis of botanical bliss worth escaping to, all while staying at the center of the city. The apartment's location near Boulevard de la Croisette makes it prime real estate. It's one of the most popular parts of Cannes so any accommodation nearby would instantly be in-demand. If you add this beautiful lawn with lush greenery and a charming layout, then you've got a winner of a home! What's not to love?
Mahtari Villa
This four-bedroom Mahtari home is one of the
best vacation villas in Cannes. For one thing, it has immense space that can fit the whole family or an entire group of friends. There's so much you can do with all that room and everyone knows that huge spaces always make for prime real estate. At the same time, its private garden adds an enchanting touch. Colorful and exotic flora surround the villa's backyard lawn, turning what would usually be a common area to be somewhat of a magical garden; a beautiful escape from the bustling Mediterranean metropolis.
EMERAUDE
Let's go to another town for this next one: Gassin. This mountaintop commune is among the more
underrated towns on the French Riviera, especially since it's not located by the sea. But what it may lack in coastal paradises, it makes up for in idyllic rental homes. One such is this gorgeous four-bedroom EMERAUDE villa. Not only does it have big rooms, ample storage, and even a private pool, but its well-cut lawns provide a nice spot for outdoor relaxation. Bamboo trees line the garden, tall trees provide shade, and you can't overlook that amazing view too!
MAGNOLIA
No one can deny that the private pool in this exquisite MAGNOLIA villa in Gassin is its pièce de résistance. Not only is it a luxurious pool, but it also overlooks an amazing view of the French Riviera. This is the perfect place to host a pool party or to enjoy a romantic date for two. With all that said, however, you also can't deny that the garden surrounding the pool enhances its idyllic appeal. The well-manicured lawn and the beautifully lined floral bushes add a charming provincial touch to the estate. The pool and the garden are practically Instagram-worthy!
CESAR
The farmhouse appeal of this four-bedroom CESAR villa is not limited to its architectural and interior design. It's also within the nature enthused in the entire estate. True, the private pool is perhaps the real clincher for any vacationer out there, especially if they expect a touch of luxury in the space. But it's not the end-all or be-all of the rental. The surrounding lawns and trees add that idyllic provincial touch that makes the French Riviera so charming. This explosion of botanical bliss further drives home the idea that you are basking in the glory of the
French countryside.
POMME
This beautiful four-bedroom POMME villa in Grimaud is the perfect home to end this list. To say that this villa has a beautiful garden is an understatement. The place is practically made up of and surrounded by nature, from the small bushes you'd see in the corners of the villa to the centuries-old trees that go beyond the estate. Trees and well-cut grass are close to the private pool providing the botanical bliss near the most luxurious part of the villa. They're enough to make you want to go on a picnic instead of swimming in the pool.
If you plan on renting a luxury home on the French Riviera, consider getting one with a beautiful garden. Whether it's a big estate or a small terrace, having some botanical bliss in your home makes a big difference!
