Cousins trip
Donna was amazing. She responded immediately to any concerns. The Villa is beautiful but showing some wear. The bathrooms were updated. The bedrooms are air conditioned but the upstairs is not. We opened the windows and utilized the fan which was fine during the day. At night it was not recommended because of mosquitos. The views from the roof terrace are amazing. The location is good but requires taking the bus or Uber into town. The local market is close by to purchase all your needs. We were 7 adults and were comfortable. If you are looking to be away from the hustle and bustle this is a good location..close to everything but away from the noise and traffic. We had an amazing stay!

VIEWS!!! and convenient location
Villa Dracoena was absolutely the BEST way for us to experience Nice for 5 days. Donna met us at check-in and explained everything with the house to us. Bathrooms and kitchen are updated. There is every appliance that you need in the kitchen, including a coffee pot for us Americans, rather than just an expresso maker. Also, if coming from the states, be sure to bring outlet converters. Bedrooms are spacious and there are plenty of bathrooms. Washer and dryer are separate units, which makes laundry much faster. We used the balcony outside the kitchen for looking out over Nice while we were eating. The rooftop balcony was even more amazing and we had drinks and appetizers up there every evening and watched the sunset. Just gorgeous. Careful of the spiral staircase, it can be tricky. The grocery market at the bottom of the stairs is so convenient! Make sure to bring your shopping bags with you, there are plenty in the kitchen. We did not rent a car and used Uber to get everywhere. You may find it much easier to use the market as your pick-up and drop-off location, which is what we did. The road next to the villa is very narrow and only one-way. Uber rides into town and back averaged about $11 each way. Still less than renting a car and don't have to worry about parking. We are already planning our return trip to Nice and will absolutely being staying in Villa Dracoena, if it is available.

A week in Nice
We are a family of seven enjoying a week at the lovely Villa Dracoena placed near Cap du Nice. The location is perfect; quiet area but still very close to the city (5-10 min. by bus or Uber), close to the cliffs where we did some fantastic snorkling and close to Coco beach and close to the super market (3 min. walk). The house is spacious and there is a great pool area. Perfect stop for a family of 6-8 persons in Nice.

Absolut 5 Sterne !!
Wir (vier Freundinnen) haben Ende Oktober eine tolle Woche in der wunderschönen Villa verbracht. Bereits der Check-in mit Donna verlief total komplikationslos. Die Villa ist wirklich perfekt mit allem ausgestattet, was man sich vorstellen kann. Schlafzimmer, Betten, das ganze Haus war für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt vorbereitet. Es stand alles mehr als ausreichend zur Verfügung. (Handtücher in großem Ausmaß, Föhne, Küchenutensilien, Gewürze, Wasch- und Spülmaschinenpods etc.) Es mangelte wirklich an Nichts. Wir hatten das Gefühl, die Villa würde uns von Freunden zur Verfügung gestellt. In den geschmackvoll und stilsicher eingerichteten Räumen haben wir uns rundum wohlgefühlt. Die Bilder übertreiben keinesfalls! Wir haben alles gern genutzt. Die Balkone mit ihren wunderschönen Aussichten (auch nachts); den nicht geheizten Pool, der noch ausreichend warm war; die Küche und den großen Tisch, um zu kochen und zu spielen. Zusätzliche Bemerkung: wir mussten feststellen, dass die Anmietung eines Autos (von einem Ausflug nach St. Tropez mal abgesehen) völlig unnötig war. In drei Minuten Entfernung befindet sich ein ausreichen ausgestatteter Carrefour, der Lebensmittel und alles für den täglichen Bedarf anbietet und sogar einen Lieferdienst anbietet. Dort befindet sich auch eine Bushaltestelle. Der ÖPNV ist insgesamt super.

Eine sehr schöne Aussicht in Nizza
Das Haus ist schön und hat einen sehr schönen Blick auf das Meer. Der Pool hat eine ideale Größe und die Temperatur ist sehr angenehm. Es ist ein altes, aber gepflegtes Haus. Die Badezimmer sind modern und sauber. Die Schlafzimmer befinden sich in der unteren Etage, sind dunkel und etwas klein, haben aber eine Klimaanlage. Die Straßen sind sehr eng, aber mit etwas Geduld gibt es kein Problem, der Sektor ist während der Woche etwas laut. Das Haus hat keine Parkplätze, aber der Eigentümer hat einen Vertrag über einen Parkplatz in einem nahe gelegenen Wohnkomplex. Es ist auch möglich auf der Straße zu parken (es ist ein bisschen riskant ...).
