Sized right for family gatherings and relaxing getaways with friends, this “grand dame” charms and delights with its spacious rooms and heated saltwater pool.  Thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship have updated its amenities while preserving its historic character. Tucked in a quiet residential neighborhood just minutes from the Old Town of Antibes, La Calado is your escape into the beauty and serenity of country living in a contemporary, Côte d’Azur style. Recharge in one of the five bedrooms (each with its own luxurious, en-suite bathroom). Relax in your choice of multiple dining and lounge areas. Stroll among the olive trees, rosemary, lavender, and cypress, in tranquil gardens that evoke the French paysage. Or, prepare a gourmet meal with loved ones in the indoor or outdoor kitchen. At La Calado, there are so many ways to enjoy a perfect day. Guests can immediately sense and appreciate the meticulous curation of materials at La Calado, from hand-picked Carrara marble in the kitchen to designer bathrooms with handcrafted tiles to rustic, repurposed wood doors throughout the villa. Uncompromising attention to detail can be found at every turn, in its filtered-water taps, high-end Sonos sound system, and selection of luxury bath products in each bathroom. These touches ensure that every guest feels pampered, revitalized, and totally cared for. Besides the five en-suite bedrooms, La Calado has a large gourmet kitchen, dining room, living room and media room. Stylish yet comfortable, each of the five en-suite bedrooms sparkles with its own unique features and flourishes, such as the stunning rooftop terrace adjoining the Penthouse or the decadent soaking tub in the Master Suite. The gourmet kitchen comes fully equipped with state-of-the-art appliances and fine flatware, stemware, and dinnerware--while the entertainment systems in the living room and media room offer cable TV channels and access to Netflix and Apple TV. La Calado is truly a gem--inside and out. Emerging from the heated saltwater pool, guests can rinse off in the arbor-like outdoor shower, sip some rose while lounging by the cozy outdoor lounge, enjoy a leisurely meal at one of two expansive dining tables...and then wander the well-manicured gardens, which feature a koi-pond grotto.  The convenient outdoor kitchen is second-to-none, featuring a barbecue grill, refrigerator, dishwasher, and enough dishes and utensils for a grand feast. Like many of our guests, you’ll probably never want to leave La Calado!  But, we encourage you to explore the Old Town and its many shops, boutiques, and restaurants. The traditional Provençal market, featuring farm-fresh products and seasonal fruits and vegetables, is not to be missed. Don’t forget to stake out a spot on a sandy beach or rent a sun lounger at a local private beach club. Of course, we have your beach towels and beach bags ready to go.  Although all the attractions of Antibes are just a short stroll away, La Calado also has secure parking on the grounds for four vehicles, should you choose to motor around the French Riviera.  Check out Antibes-Rental for more information about La Calado.
