Mortola Inferiore Apartments

The villages of the Riviera dei Fiori (Italian or French) are very special: they are perched villages of the Ligurian coast, but in addition, they are those of my birthplace (from Cannes to San Remo). Whether sea or in the hinterland, they are typical and enchanting. That of Grimaldi Superiore allows you to have one foot in Italy and one foot in France (it's on the border) and the apartment we are interested in you "dive" directly into the Med every waking or meals on the terrace . Go with confidence, friendliness of the hosts, the beauty of places and the calm of nature gives you the expected rest, needed or deserved ...! However, avoid "big" cars, trucks and caravans because Grimaldi adjoins the French Maritime Alps wearing very aptly named: the mountains falls steeply into the sea and the streets (pardon the street) village is, least, narrow; So move is difficult, parking is difficult but can not cross (cause you to reverse the mirrors). However, the beauty and calm also discover on foot, leaving the car at the entrance of the village. Come on ! treat yourself ...

Walter and Scarlett were very nice and helpful !!! The view from the house is spectacular! A nice weekend !!!!

Walter's apartment is lovely and the view from the terrace is gorgeous. Walter is also a great and welcoming host, I would recommend it if you're looking for a place to stay a few days in this beautiful region :) Thanks Walter!

Together with a friend I visited Walters place for 4 days. Except of a very low WLAN Walters location was as shown on Airbnb: simple but functional inside with a great view to the seaside from the terrace. People who want to stay here should certainly know: The house and Walters parking space is located in a small village near the dead end of the very narrow main street. Going there by car means to drive the car through two extremely tight passages which fits only for small cars (and confident drivers :-). Who’s afraid of scratching the car should better park on the street which sometimes means to walk 100+ m. Another thing I should mention are the frogs which are living in a small basin directly on Walters terrace. At least in the end of June they are croaking extremely loud from 9:30 pm til 1:30 am. So we couldn’t really enjoy sitting on the terrace in the evening. On the other hand we paid a very reasonable price for the apartment and enjoyed our time in the beautiful area very much.

Very clean house and an exemplary welcome! Beautiful view on two nice bays with beautiful beaches.

Thank you Walter I could meet you! It was our pleasure to visit your place. The background is amazing, it is really close to Monaco, Nice. Thanks for your help. Pasta & Basta rules!! ;)

Grimaldi spent wonderful holiday! The apartment is comfortable, the view is breathtaking! Not to mention the friendliness of Walter advised us places to visit, restaurants! Thank you for the welcome, Walter!

Walter has welcomed us warmly. App is well equipped. The view from the terrace across the sea towards Menton is fantastic. Parking is critical in August.

The main and most outstanding feature is the magnificent view of the sea and strategic location that allows to enjoy a great stay from the point of view of seaside hiking or cultural tourism. The apartment is comfortable and in a very quiet location. Alessandro is a very welcoming host, friendly, attentive and present to any needs that may arise during your stay and a very communicative and nice! It 'was a really nice stay! I hope to come back soon. Thanks Alessandro.

We were the first guests !!! We hope to bring you luck :-) Alessandro The accommodation is a short walk from the border with France. Wonderful view. The apartment is like the pictures. The only drawback is the parking.

The view from this apartment is unbeatable. It is a nice access point to both the French side and Italian side. We adventured to the beach which is an adventurous small hike to a beautiful secluded beach (maybe secluded only for us as we were there in early May). Alessandro was super helpful and flexible with us when our plans changed! He was very easy to get in touch with and made our stay at his place welcoming!

Ottima panoramica

We got a warm welcome there, he's a nice host with great knowledge in aloe. With our two big dogs which we brought with us it was all fine. If someone plan to go down to the ocean: its a bit a hike down the stairs, we had 30+ degrees every day. In Latte for its own: not really nice restaurants, we got just on food store which was fullpacked with people. Solution: take your car and go just 6 km further to Ventimiglia. Nice cafes, restaurants, market and icecream :-) . So far, a nice spot - just traffic from the highway could be anoying someone too. Cheers!

After a sporty climb along a winding path, we landed in the field of Carlo Maria, international gardener. Friendly host to the perfect home. Beautiful sea views and beautiful garden ... We spent 4 pleasant days in a holiday home customized by Carlo-Maria, housing has an unusual comfort rather exotic. Beware though, the highway is relatively close, as the wind can be heard in the background.

Just a magical place a 'two fingers of Heaven (and Hell nicois too, tonight ... (...) Thanks to Aurelio, our guardian angel, and especially a' Carlo Maria for her warm welcome and for having imagine 'this small botanical architecture prodigy.

The view and the apartment is just amazing :)) And Carlo Maria very generous because he has received in the free 90m2, so we booked the 40m2! The decor of the place is very unique among the curio cabinet and the artist's studio. The huge bay window and terrace offer a 180 on the Mediterranean and the sky. A great spot :)

Great location with great views of the sea. Adventurous Access via narrow and steep mountain road. Layout and décor minimalist (no closets, shelves, hangers, lighting). Good for people who are far outside and an interior region need only to sleep.

The description was very detailed, and we quickly found the nice studio with lovely terrace. Small but perfect in every detail. Me and my husband arrived with the food and parked the car we have not moved. For four days we did up and down the ladder in a quarter of an hour door to the street and another half an hour you can walk to the beautiful town of Menton. We ranged between sea and mountains in the midst of nature, although in January, lush and full of colors and scents. Special thanks to Mrs. Jeanette for her kindness and cheerfulness availability. Franca

We were greeted by Jeanette who very kindly gave us the keys and showed us the cottage, small but lovely and with everything you need for a stay of a few days. The view of Menton is priceless! Our experience has been positive, single (s) advantage is that higher Grimaldi is a small village perched accessible by car or twenty minutes walk from the main road (it is 1.5 km from Menton and 8.5 km from Ventimiglia, so no car is a problem to move), but because it is a small village streets and porches to be crossed are really very tight and despite the small car we found it very difficult!

The views from this little studio on the border of France and Italy are amazing. Menton is only a couple of minutes by car. as is a big supermarket in Latte. The terrace makes for some nice long evenings outside!

A little piece of heaven ... but the streets are very narrow ...

A very quiet place ideal for us with an amazing view...exactly what we expected...June is very friendly....Sun, view, breakfast in this small italian village just up the riviera....we will come back again...

Girlfriend landlord welcomed us, she is Dutch, so the communication was good. Everything you could ask her and she was very friendly and helpful. The place is fantastic, the view can not be beat and as a base for the beautiful surrounding area is perfect. Inside it is small, but you do not need good weather the interior. To the village, which is quite dominant, to enter by car you must maneuver through two narrow gates, but then you do have a private parking reasonably close to the cottage. Another option is the car at the beginning to leave the village, but then you have to walk a bit. The setting is beautiful, there are plenty of opportunities for trips. The beaches nearby are not very nice. They are busy (in Menton) or stony / pebbly. The villages in the hinterland are beautiful ancient and medieval. Nice place to stay for a week.

Beautiful space in a beautiful place! June was easy to communicate with; his friend Jeanette, who took care of my visit, was absolutely wonderful and generous. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed. A few things to know: Being located in an old village on the side of the mountains overlooking the ocean, you will have to climb a few steps to get to the apartment, as noted in the listing. Also, while the terrace is entirely for the apartment, you will occasionally see and hear the neighbors, but I didn't mind any of that at all-- it was all part of the experience of village life in one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. I loved every moment of my stay- I really didn't want to leave and wish I could have stayed longer! Thank you June, and of course Jeanette!

Wonderful stay! Very well hidden germ - away from the crowds, peaceful, quiet, church bells only, high up the mountain side of beautiful Italian riviera, ancient village, truly old Italian village location. Views are even better than pictured - it has to be seen to be believed. Private entrance and secluded patio overlooking deep blue sea, clean,newly refurbished accommodation, romantic place for a couple! June is a wonderful host - she waited for me patiently when I lost my way and arrived around 11pm! She is very welcoming, helpful and genuine in her approach. Breakfasts served could keep you going for the most of the day! I would highly recommend this place to a fellow travelers!

We had a nice stay in Mortola inferiora. The apartment is located a few kilometers from Menton and Monte Carlo and is ideal for day trips. A special feature of the apartment is the great view directly to the sea. One can watch the sunrise from the balcony. Communication with Rafaella worked very well. I recommend you.

This is a beautiful apartment with a spectacular view. It is right next to the famous Hanbury Botanical Garden and close to many good restaurants and shopping areas. A car or the use of taxis/uber is essential unless you want to hike a bit. There is secure parking on the roof. We loved this place and plan to return.

Panoramic view of the single sea. Season conducive to enjoy the beauty of the region. The apartment, functional and very clean, the bedding was comfortable. quiet and pleasant stay.

The apartment is very nice, well equipped and beautifully. The must is the unobstructed view of the sea, and the small balcony where one can have meals while contemplating the magnificent panorama. The less is a bedroom small and dark, lit only by two skylights overlooking the entrance hall. But this is a minor inconvenience considering the quality of the living room and kitchen area.

Everything was perfect no complaints, perfect setting, great big apartment very friendly remote host !!!

Lovely location, however some furniture was broken, a few knobs and handles as well. Hand soap not provided in bathrooms which I thought was inconvenient.

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

The place was just as it was represented by Christopher. The views were breathtaking and the accommodation was spacious. We had a very comfortable stay, close to Menton, Monaco and Nice. We missed internet access and also the AC in the bedrooms are missing. We hope by the next both will be supplemented to this amazing place.

Excellent sea view, large rooms, a lovely terrace, where you can spend your time. Near (minutes 10-15 foot) resort town. I recommend.

Christopher was very kind and helpful. The information that you gave were very accurate. The neighborhood was very quiet until we arrived :) We enjoyed ourselves very well, we hope one day we can go back . Thank you so much!

It is a very nice place to spend with 6-8 men. The spacious apartment, the large balcony with stunning views of the Mediterranean and Menton / Monaco, the calm. All very pleasant. The price / quality ratio is fine. In short: a must!

We had a wonderful stay at Christopher's apartment. The view is just like the pictures, perhaps even more beautiful in real life! The penthouse is well equipped, the hosts helpful and friendly. Christopher gave us a lot of individual advice and helped us to organize our trip well.

Denise is a loving and very attentive hostess. We immediately felt right at home. The apartment is tastefully furnished and provides all comforts. On the terrace you can relax. So absolutely worth a recommendation. PS: If you want absolute peace, should note that the usual in Italian coastal towns traffic is on the loose here.

Denise was a great host and we felt very welcome! The house was more than we expected and confortable, good décoration, attention to details and very spacious. It was a bonus to have the car parked inside by the house and great location to go Ventimiglia and around the coast. We loved our stay and will be back! Merci Denise :)

Lovely hosts and beautiful apartment.

We stayed for 1 week. It is a lovely house with a nice view at the sea. It is clean, well equipped and the description is accurate. Didi was very helpful and we enjoyed our stay. Minor disadvantage is the road, more traffic than we are used to. But at the back in the garden it is completely safe for example for children. We really recommend the house.

Hello Denise and Dino, We are delighted to have made your acquaintance. We spent 5 nights (20 to 25 May 2016) great in your villa so inviting, clean, accompanied by a fresh fruit dish, sparkling water, natural water, etc. Nothing was missing. We had the impression of living in our villa, filled with flowers, terrace sea view, sun umbrella, garden table, finally everything you could possibly need for a lovely stay. Not to mention, the walls that tell the story of this magical house dating back over 200 years. A little paradise! Denise and Dino are exceptional people offering this villa with so much love to make others happy. We recommend this place and the hosts Denise and Dino! Thank you! Johanne and Hans

Great location, only a few minutes drive from Ventimiglia and 10 minutes drive to Menton. The house is a lovely farm house conversion with fully equipped kitchen and a beautiful garden with see view. Home away from home. We had a wonderful week there. Thanks Didi!

Lovely house, exactly as the photos promise .. unfortunately without breakfast. Beautiful garden with terrace and parasol. Didi is a cordial warm woman who is proud of her B & B Nice location near the beach .. And close to France and San Remo.

The house very welcoming. I, my husband, my mom, my two children and our dog we had a very nice stay. Gentlemen are some lovely people. I recommend it to everybody. Thanks sign. Denise.

Absolutely awesome location. Vera was an excellent host. The rooftop terrace had magnificent views of the Riviera as shown on the listing. We had a fabulous time.

This was so fantastic! The place was fantastic, the area is fantastic, Vera is fantastic! I wouldn't stay anywhere else if I was even close to here. I would go as far to say that it's better than any hotel choices in the area, by a long shot! Thanks Vera!!

The place is fantastic, has an amazing view, all services and the beach is nearby. Being almost on the border with the French border can opt x go to one side or the other. He see was very kind to us.

Amazing views! Lovely and helpful host!

Vera went out of her way to make us comfortable during our stay. We got there in the midst of record heat and the first thing she did was get us a fan to help cool down the room. She also gave us her parking key so that we could park in the lot behind the gate. The apartment was clean and convenient to the attractions in the area.

Vera is a very pleasant hostess, who welcomed us with a bottle of sparkling red summer wine. The restaurant in front is a bit in the upper range. We didn´t try it. The location is serene and as close to the border as possible. This adds up to a very unique experience.

great holiday! Everything was perfect, hospitality and remarkable hospitality of Vera and her husband! The accommodation is great! ultra comfortable bedding! The "condominium" is clean and well located daily smile and friendliness of Maria the concierge that's nice! "Mi piace molto Italia" even more now! I highly recommend and enjoy the "dolce vita" Great Rooms "Letino" on the "spiaggia" Vera you will be happy! Enjoy this place you will not want to leave! Look no further for a successful stay in people value!

Very nice Place close the See and Vera tooked us warmly welcome. She introduced everything about house and neigbours and took us to nice Italian restaurant. Everything was like in description and clean and comfortable.

We stayed in this apartment for 2 nights while travelling from France to Italy. Sonia was very friendly and met us in Latte and we followed her back to the apartment. The drive up to the apartment is very tight and steep but as we were not going to be using the car we didnt mind. We could walk to the beach and the town via steps. The apartment is exactly as its described and the view was amazing. Sonia was available if we needed anything. I would definitley go back !

Everything was fine.

Had a great night! Cozy apartment with a grew view.

We had a great stay. The apartment is comfortable and quiet, in a very nice environment. Sonia is very friendly. He went out to get us on the road and gave us all the information and recommendations we ask. Recommended.

We couldn't find the location. We attempted to call, text, and message the host via AirBNB app and could't reach her.

We really had difficulty to find the place, partly because the location (GPS-coordinates) on the map is incorrect. Sonia was not around, but her friendly mother guided us to the place. The appartment is nice, as is the seaview. It's a pitty there is no wifi, but for the rest it was all OK.

We were very well received by Michèle, the handsome brother of Sonia Adequate housing beautiful sea view Warning access from the road is tricky drive

Sonia was incredibly nice to us, she was friendly and tried her best to make our stay as comfortable as she could. The apartment was clean and well equipped and the view from the terrace was amazing! Even though the apartment can be a little hard to get to, we would definitely recommend a stay in this very nice place!

The tenant received us at the parking space and showed us how to enter the gate and where to go. She explained how everything worked at the compound and the terms of use, and she asnwered all our questions. She made us feel welcome.

This is our best Air bnb find yet. Maria and her family were so helpful and friendly, they made us feel very welcome. What the apartment lacks in modernity it makes up for in charm and comfort. The views are spectacular and the pool is lovely. Highly, highly recommended!

What a wonderful apartment! The incredibly cozy Menton Garavan! We got very good help of the apartment's "elf" who picked us up at the station and showed us around Menton o tipped off about including food & bath. The apartment is a 15-minute walk from the old town of Menton and a 5-minute walk to the Italian border. The area is very quiet, with an incredibly nice beach (Plage Hawai) at five minutes walking distance. There is also a cafe where you can buy baguettes early morning o super good citrontartletter the afternoon coffee break. The apartment has just what you need for a week in the sun - Simply the was also the washing machine so we could wash bath towels o swimwear drinker! Strongly recommend to those visiting Menton, you will not be disappointed!

We had a wonderful week-long stay in Kim's apartment. It is in a great location, and had everything we needed. The check-in and check-out were a breeze. We highly recommend!

Strengths: beautiful apartment well equipped, spacious, very clean and bright. Close to the beach (3 minutes walk) from the Italian border, 20 minutes walk from the city center of Menton and Menton Garavan station very close. Restaurants and shops nearby. Disadvantages: the vehicle noise as the apartment (including room) faces the road and train with the railway opposite the building. Also, the apartment is on the 3rd floor not recommended for the elderly or disabled. Good overall experience and welcome the arrival.

Great stay, close to the train station. Spacious room, everything needed was there. Thanks!

Welcome was excellent and communication beforehand very good. Everything we needed was provided and we liked the apartment. The location was particularly good for us an we were visiting relatives nearby. Shops, restaurants, beaches, buses, trains and centre of town all within easy walking distance. We very much enjoyed our stay, thank you! Kiki and Andy Connor ps - We also advertise a property with Airbnb, in England, near Hay-on-Wye on the Welsh Border so we are quite fussy!

Great communication. Super helpful and we were picked up from airport. Apartment was immaculate. Slight issue with (a) noisy road / location (b) no elevator to 4th floor (so if you are elderly...) and (c) no air-con. That said location is great for Michelin resturant Mirazur, quiet local beaches and day-trips into Italy. Less so for downtown Menton and shops. If you're after an affordable, friendly and off-beaten track and don't need to be in heart of action with glitzy / design apartment, this could be right for you.

The host was friendly and helpful. The apartment was perfect and resembled the description perfectly. Very clean and comfy. The neighborhood was very beautiful and peaceful with lot of interesting things to see. Menton was very safe and clean town.

super appart, agréable à vivre . nous le recommandons fortement.

From the very first question me and my family asked, Rafaele was extremely quick to respond to us and always friendly. I stayed in contacted with Rafaele for the weeks leading up to our stay, all of our questions and concerns were answered the same day, and normally within the same hour. The day of our arrival we had planned to be there around noon, however we were extremely early and had a little confusion finding the home. I contacted Rafaele, she met us on the road, and was not disturbed at all with the fact we were extremely early. Rafaele then guided us the rest of the way to the home, and then my family and I were completely amazed. The first thing must do, even while walking through the front door, is look off the balcony. No fault of Rafaele, the pictures she has posted do not capture the beauty of the view you have from her home. I took 100's of photos my self and I am sure that it is only possible to fully enjoy with your own eyes. Once I caught my breath, Rafaele showed me around the beautiful modern home. We had everything we needed to cook our own meals, and wash our clothes. The bedrooms are large, and the home fit all 6 of us quite comfortably. The master bathroom is large and beautiful, the upstairs bathroom is also large and includes the washer and dryer. Rafaele's home has not only an amazing view, but we found the location to be quite great. Once down the hill it is a quick 10 min. drive to Menton France, witch has an easily accessible, and beautiful beach. On the Italian side you have a quick trip to a supermarket, where you can buy any items you might need during your stay. In the area we had a lot of luck finding things to do, one thing I would recommend to everyone is Whale Watching Imperia. It is a cheap way to get out on the water, it is local, and it was one of the most enjoyable days we had while staying at Rafaele's amazing home. Even the neighbors were a pleasure to meet and our daughter had a sleep over with one of their children. Over all we had a Great time and we would Highly recommend Rafaele and her Amazing home.

The house is very nice (it had everything that is listed in the profile and more!) the view of the french riviera is amazing! The place is surrounded by green. On the down side the road to get to the apartment is very narrow and curvy (10 minutes drive) Rafaele and Jean Patrick were very nice hosts, they provided everything we needed to made us feel at home.

Raphaelle's hospitality was the best ever. She and her husband were very welcoming. Everything was spotless and they were very flexible in both arrival and departure time. The appartment itself was wonderful too, especially the view. But most of all they make staying there a pleasure. Thanks a lot!

The location, hospitality and weather were perfect. It was a perfect long weekend in a peaceful and blue. It is very jealous of these beautiful bougainvillea. Thank you.

Typical italian apartment with stunning views over the Mediterranean sea, swimming pool and parking on private property. Very attentive and helpful hostess Elisabetta.

Bellisima location, Elizabeth and 'gentle ... we stayed at 6 with every comfort ... Menton and' 5 minutes ... highly recommended

We spent a wonderful week in this beautiful apartment. The view on the sea is spectacular and the private beach very relaxing. The welcome was very warmhearted. We are looking forward to come back to this lovely location. Thanks a lot for having us.

The view from this appartment is absolut fantastic from all 7 windows in the flat. The host very friendly and caring. Our daughter said: " this looks like Rapunzels house and Rapunzels balcony"- so we only call is Rapunzels house. The magic collours of house, ocean and flowers and the magnificant pool area is the quality of this place

We were a family of 5 and stayed in Elisabetta's apartment for 6 nights. The photos depict accurately what the apartment is like - the views are breathtaking from all of the windows and the small terrace. It is also cluttered and in need of modernisation. We really enjoyed using the pool and sun terrace that has a broad, beautiful vista of the surrounding gardens, hills and the sea. The villa is in a great location for exploring the Ligurian coast (Imperia and Savona) either by train or by car. The Hanbury Gardens are a 10 minute walk away and provide a lovely walk from the top of the hill down to the sea (and back up again) for those who are mobile and enjoy history and the diverse flora and fauna growing there.

This was a wonderful house, with a spectacular view on the Mediterranean. The house is nice, surrounded by a beautiful garden and a lovely swimming pool. Elisabetta was very friendly and helpfull.

great welcome Beautiful location in an elegant setting

We seniors (two couples and one individual) have felt very comfortable at the property. Apartment has good cut, spacious living / dining area with open kitchen and sea views. In the house, there are other tenants. Since it is built on the slope, but each has its own entrance so that you stay emotionally in their "own house". closed with gate land, parking for several cars. From the driveway / parking lot to the apartment several stairs to climb because of the slope. Beautiful garden area with summer kitchen and pool for exclusive use. The only drawback might: as in all the valleys in the Riviera also crosses the highway here. However, this has not really bother us - outweigh other benefits! Motorization is essential! Close to shops in a very well-stocked supermarket bar (1.5 km), which is open until 21:00 every day (including Sundays). All in all we had a great week there!

warm, Patrizia is really nice. Very good location and good apartment. Beautiful terrace overlooking the sea. Residence not suitable for families with children. Lack of towels for the bathroom.

The host canceled this reservation 74 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
