Best view in the world!
This is a wonderful place with huge charm and all the comforts, well arranged so that you're facing the view all the time and everywhere. Menton-Garavan local station is a 20 minute scramble straight down the cliff and from there you can go anywhere on the French & Italian rivieras. Great hiking and exercise all around you ... but if you have any mobility problem it's not for you. We came away fantastically healthy and fit!

Fantastic view and outdoor terrace
This is a good place. Very nice view over the ses from inside and especially from the two main terraces. Very Nice outdoor spaces and furniture. Nice little pool But is does the job to cool you off. The pebers are restoring and old mill and therefor the place isn’t finiced as there are som materials and machines visable. But don’t worry about that. Otherwise the House is Well furnished inside and Well equiped kitchen and barbecue at the main terrace. Er would certainly Go back to this wonderfull place

Beautiful property with stunning views, but with only one proper bedroom
This property has an absolutely stunning view of the city, cliffs and the ocean. There are also plenty of spaces where you can really enjoy the view while having dinner, chilling in the pool, reading in the terrace or discovering one of the many small but well-placed tables. All of this is above and beyond, really. The house itself has a curious layout. Odd, but there is nothing bad to say about that. The kitchen opens directly to the outdoors (no solid walls) but that was not a problem for us given the great weather. It rather contributes to the ambience instead. There was one major drawback however. This house is advertised as having two bedrooms. In reality however there is one proper bedroom with a good bed, A/C etc. The other bedroom is an office(?) which has a convertible sofa in it, and it lacks A/C. This was a major drawback for us as the room both ended up incredibly hot and the "bed" very uncomfortable. We even went to the lengths to switch bedrooms (we were two couples) halfway through the week as one of them was simply so underwhelming. So all in all it's a lovely house with great views. But there is really only one proper bedroom, and we found it very misleading that it was said to have two. Especially given the high price point.

Complete WOW FACTOR !!!
This beautiful, quirky, bespoke viila has Amazing charm ! I can't praise it enough for it's location & Views that take your breathe away & gives you the complete feel of escapisium. Everything has been thought of which made our stay comfortable & the villa has a wonderful feel to it. Modern mixed with old to complete it's character. The town of Menton is very excessible via car & has everything you need from beaches to shops & restaurants. If your feeling Super fit you could walk down .... All uphill coming back ! ( be prepared to sweat & your thigh muscles to burn lol ) The train station is also very close so we went into Monaco & Italy for the day or you can drive. The pool is an added luxury & shaded slightly by the trees which helped cool us down from the Mediterranean sun. This is probabltv one of my best finds as villas go ... A complete treasure I'd love to keep to myself but so wonderful that our experience must be shared. Our upmost Thanks to Clement who made sure we had everything we needed & the bottle of prosecco that was presented on our arrival. A very kind gesture & wonderful touch to welcome us. Thank you so much. Kindest, Vanessa, Eugene & Reuben

Une villa magnifique et une vue splendide
Nous avons énormément apprécié cette propriété. Elle est idéalement située à Menton: plusieurs restaurants et commodités y sont à proximité. Tout était propre à notre arrivée et la maison est bien équipée. L'ambiance qui règne dans cette villa est tout simplement magnifique (tant le jour que le soir). Le réel coup de coeur reste pour nous la vue... C'est indescriptible à quel point le panorama est beau avec vue sur la ville de Menton, la mer et les rochers de l'Italie. Bref, nous avons adoré nos vacances ! Nous comptons peut-être même y retourner. équipe

Großes Objekt mit fantastischem Ausblick von jeder Terrasse.
Ein insgesamt gut bewohnbares Objekt, das neben dem fantastischen Ausblick viele Annehmlichkeiten bietet. Die Parksituation ist problematisch. Die Pflege des Objekts lässt noch Wünsche offen. Die Küche bietet alle notwendige Technik, könnte jedoch systematischer aufgeräumt werden, damit man sich in den vielfältigen Utensilien auch zurecht findet.

Wunderbarer Ort zur Erholung
Sehr schönes Anwesen mit vielen verwinkelten Orten zum Verweilen und zur Erholung. Sehr charmant und authentisch eingerichtet. Es fehlt an nichts. Sensationelle Aussicht. Super gelegen für Ausflüge an die Coté d-Azure wie z.B. Monaco, Nizza Cannes etc. (Die Willkommensbroschüre müsste gelegentlich überarbeitet werden. Keine Nespressomachine (Kapseln wurden von uns im Vorfeld somit vergebens angeschafft) sondern ein super Kaffeevollautomat). Ist nur eine kleine Anmerkung und hat unsere Ferienwoche in keinster Weise getrübt. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Al fresco was the best experience ever. Endless views and you are one with nature. We were able to walk down to town to the supermarket and Boulangerie. The Maison Du citron was within walking distance and so was the Sir Hanbury Botanical garden in Italy. Arnaud , the property was very nice and available when needed. We will definitely return and we recommend this villa.

Spectaculaire...
Excellent séjour passé dans cette villa Mentonnaise à laquelle Clément à su apporter le modernisme nécessaire tout en conservant le cachet et le côté fonctionnel de la maison. Décoration sobre et soignée, mais avant tout une optimisation des lieux pour le panorama dont on ne se lasse pas du matin au soir... Entrée / sortie avec Arnaud (gestionnaire) aux petits soins. Bref, un séjour de rêve.

Vue exceptionnelle
Comme le dit l'annonce : "Villa de caractère avec magnifiques vues mer, piscine privée et jardin exotique". Je rajouterai que l'accueil est très professionnel et sympathique. La villa et son beau jardin, bien entretenu, sont très agréables et la vue vraiment époustouflante. La maison est très confortable et atypique, nombreuses terrasses et recoins, des plantes exotiques partout. La décoration est soignée et moderne. La place de parking en bas de la villa est appréciable car la montée est très raide. Le seul hic le bruit de fond ambiant extérieur des très nombreux transports alentours (autoroute, routes, train, hélicoptères, etc.), mais nous sommes en ville et Menton est encaissée entre mer et montagne. La ville de Menton, la vue de la Villa et la région valent bien le séjour.

Vue 20/20 exceptionnelle
Semaine TRES agréable dans une villa typiquement mentonnaise avec une vue imprenable sur la mer et la ville qu’on gardera en mémoire. Nous dormions rideaux ouverts pour ne rien perdre de la vue. Piscine juste ce qu’il faut… Proximité avec l’Italie. Par contre, l’accès à la villa est un peu stressant car abrupte mais pour une telle vue, passage obligé. La place de parking n’est pas très pratique non plus mais après une semaine, on s’y fait. En plus le voisin est sympa. Toutefois qq tout petits points négatifs (vite oubliés), manque des transats à plat, j’ai du mettre ma serviette par terre, garde corps un peu bas et les moustiques 😩. L’accueil par Arnaud, génial. En résumé, une semaine dans un endroit exceptionnel avec un temps exceptionnel. Nous nous souviendrons de ces vacances.

La vue n'excuse pas tout
Très beau potentiel, propriété originale, vue extraordinaire, jardins et terrasses magnifiques, mais .... un sentiment jamais vécu encore, d'être chez quelqu'un. Des affaires personnelles laissées partout dans la maison, jusqu'au frigo pas totalement vidé !!!!! une cuisine avec un potentiel très intéressant, mais á la propreté limite... le four est tout simplement TRES SALE , le plan de travail collait à l'arrivée. Pour ětre nous même loueur d'un gîte 4 erloies en meublé de tourisme en Bretagne, nous avons un autre sens de la location. C'est vraiment dommage car c'est un très beau produit, mais au vu du prix payé, la vue n'excuse pas tous. Il faut juste se ressaisir.

excellent stay at Casa Molino
What a special atmosphere at this great place with a fantastic view over the sea and Menton. We really enjoyed our stay at this special house. Especially the terraces at the kitchen, bedroom and poolside are outstanding. It's not an ordinary house but an house with a heart. The path to the house is a little steep, (you can park just 40 meters down the house) but the result is a panorama view....We loved it! It's perfect for those who are looking for something different.
