The region of Provence is one of the world’s most desired vacation rental destinations. From illustrious beach villas and mountainside chateaus to charming city apartments and traditional old-world houses, it’s a setting one might find on the movie screen. And the views alone are worth the price of admission.

Set in southeastern France, bordered by the Mediterranean Sea, Provence extends from the Rhône River on the west to the Italian frontier on the East. Hot, dry summers, mild winters, and abundant year-round sunshine characterize the Mediterranean climate. Its picturesque countryside, busy coastal towns and distinct cultural identity make it a once-in-a-lifetime travel spot for families, friends and couples alike. Provence consists of five main quarters (with Alpes being split into three), each hosting an array of gorgeous vacation rentals of all shapes and sizes.
