Castle / Palace in French Riviera
Reasons to book
About this castle / palace rental
Enjoy sweeping views of Monaco, the Mediterranean and the surrounding hills from this distinctive castle-style villa in La Turbie. Characterful stonework, elegant bedrooms and inviting terraces create a memorable setting for a stay on the French Riviera.
With three ensuite bedrooms in the main house, a separate studio and additional hallway sleeping space, the property accommodates up to 10 guests. It is particularly well suited to families, extended families and friends who want to spend time together while enjoying space and privacy.
BEDROOMS AND SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Master bedroom
An elegant king-size four-poster bed is the centrepiece of this spacious room. An adjoining dressing area includes a dressing table, mirrors, storage and an armchair, while a door opens directly onto the terrace. The private ensuite has a bath, separate shower, toilet and bidet.
Bedroom 2
A welcoming queen-size bedroom with decorative furnishings, storage and a dressing table. French doors open onto a balcony with hillside views. The private ensuite includes a shower and toilet.
Bedroom 3
Large windows frame breathtaking Mediterranean and hillside views. This bedroom has a queen-size bed, wardrobe and mirrored storage cabinet, together with a private ensuite containing a shower and toilet.
Separate studio
Situated at the front of the property, the studio offers additional independence with its own private entrance and an internal connection to the main villa. It includes a double bed, kitchenette and private ensuite with a shower and toilet.
Additional hallway sleeping space
Two pull-down wall beds provide sleeping space for two additional guests. These are in the shared hallway connecting the bedrooms, so the area remains a passageway for your group and is not a separate private bedroom.
Depending on their ages and size, the wall beds may accommodate up to four children sharing. If you would like to discuss this arrangement, please message me before booking so we can confirm suitability and the total guest number. The advertised capacity of 10 allows for two guests in this area.
SIX BATHROOMS
The property has six bathrooms in total: three bedroom ensuites, the studio ensuite, a bathroom serving the hallway sleeping area and another serving the sitting room. The master ensuite includes both a bath and a separate shower.
LIVING AND DINING
Gather in the villa’s comfortable living spaces, prepare meals in the equipped main kitchen, or enjoy the flexibility of the studio’s own kitchenette. An outdoor kitchen with a preparation counter, sink, hob and BBQ makes cooking and dining alfresco part of the Riviera experience. Air conditioning and heating provide comfort throughout the seasons.

This does not include permission to hold a wedding or reception at the property.
OPTIONAL SAUNA
Sauna use is available for a one-off fee of €500. Advance booking is essential, as it needs to be set up and prepared before use. Please message me ahead of your stay if you would like to arrange this.
EXPLORE LA TURBIE AND THE CÔTE D’AZUR
The villa’s elevated setting makes it a wonderful base for exploring Monaco, Monte-Carlo, Èze, Cap-d’Ail and the wider French Riviera. Combine days discovering coastal towns, beaches and restaurants with quieter time enjoying the villa’s terraces and views.
A car is recommended for exploring the area, and guests should be comfortable driving on local hillside roads.
PRIVACY WITH SUPPORT WHEN YOU NEED IT
You’ll have privacy and independence throughout your stay. Although I won’t be at the property in person, I’m available remotely via Vrbo messaging to answer questions and help with anything that arises. Clear arrival instructions will be provided before your stay.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
Children must be supervised around the Hydropool, terraces and other outdoor areas. Please contact me before booking if you have questions about steps, accessibility, the studio connection or the hallway sleeping arrangement, so you can be confident the property suits your group.
Whether you’re planning family time, a Riviera holiday with friends or a base for exploring Monaco, the villa offers a distinctive setting with beautiful views and plenty of places to unwind.
