Over the last couple of years several of my friends have bought places in Nice and Cannes. Their experiences have been varied but we all wanted to recommend one bunch of people - Totally Riviera. They're not an estate agent, but they act for the buyers in the same way that estate agents act for sellers. And their service (which has been faultless - nothing less than brilliant) is absolutely free. I thought I'd mention them here because although it's not their core business, they also know a lot about rentals along the Riviera. If you want to rent or buy in Cannes, Nice, or Villefranche you could do far worse than contact Dennis and the team. Fast, friendly, open, honest and fun to deal with.
