The best Airbnbs in the South of France, from family-friendly villas to airy studios

We’ve said it again and again: there’s so much more to France than just a trip to Paris. Case in point? The South of France – also referred to as the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region – home to some of our favourite towns. There are big names like Cannes, Marseille, and Nice in the area, but there are plenty of smaller towns to enjoy, like Menton, Grasse, and Cassis. If you want to live out your provincial French fantasy – whether it’s smack on the beach, in a historic old town apartment, multi-acre château, or Julia Child’s own kitchen – we’ve got some Airbnbs for you to book, spread all across the region.

As a bonus, almost all of these Airbnbs in the South of France are run by superhosts, who each have a rating of 4.8 or above, a record of zero cancellations, and at least a 90 per cent response rate, meaning they’ll get back to you ASAP.
