Rue Sade B&B

A hip B&B that promises “the luxury of a hotel with the ambiance of a B&B.” This Swedish-run establishment achieves its goal in spades. The breakfast is among the finest in Antibes’ Vieille Ville. Think local pastries, market-fresh fruit, pickles, and preserves. Rooms are small and simple, as befits a colorful neighborhood where locals live cheek by jowl. Instead of TVs, each room has an iPod dock and access to speedy Wi-Fi. The proprietor will also reserve guests a restaurant table from his notebook of fabulous recommendations.
