Villa St. Maxime without a doubt possesses one of the finest hotel views on the Riviera: the Cap d'Antibes, the Mediterranean and parts of the Alps can be seen, and the six rooms and suites all offer a unique perspective on this. Such a pearl of a location, a mere half kilometre from the charming fortified hilltop town of St. Paul de Vence, is important to many visitors, but even more significant for us is the artistry of the villa's own design.

Both in terms of paintings and objets d'art, this ultra-contemporary building reveals so much more than initially meets the eye. The retractable glass-enclosed atrium, pillared and vaulted halls, and lustrous marble floors all portray a powerful sense of light and space.

Owners Ann and John have not scrimped on guest rooms either, with an equally fresh and airy approach. Consider the St. Maxime suite, whose contemporary bathroom features a circular bath pool and nine-directional shower. All rooms and suites have televisions and a DVD player, with films provided, plus a fridge, air conditioning and a safe, and there is free wi-fi connection in the public areas and most guest rooms.

Although Villa St. Maxime does not have its own restaurant, the town is of course just along the road, with the hotel situated beneath the ancient ramparts of St Paul, so a restaurant is never far away. Nevertheless, all room rates include champagne breakfasts and evening aperitifs, plus the chance to indulge in the offerings of the late evening cart- chocolates, a range of liqueurs and water. Such decadent living lends itself well to reposing by the swimming pool, in the stylish gardens or out on the large terrace.

With a bit of travel, guests have access to so much terrain around them- the Riviera, Provence, the Alps, Monaco and even Northern Italy. As for the town, St. Paul de Vence punches well above its weight; it is artistically and culturally interesting, with the Marguerite and Maeght Foundation (with its modern and contemporary art), St. Paul's Museum of Art and the Local History Museum, along with some good shops and restaurants.
