Cannes, France vacation rental: 1-bedroom apartment (PR-916) pic<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

By the time May rolls around on the French Riviera, it\u2019s already beach weather – but the real action is at the Cannes Film Festival<\/strong>, held every year in this normally sleepy beach town in the South of France.\u00a0 The 62nd edition is from May 13 to 24, 2009 – so, why not rent a New York Habitat accommodation \u00a0in the French Riviera<\/a><\/strong> <\/strong>and place yourself smack dab in the middle of it all?<\/p>\n

We usually only hear about the 20 films competing in the Official Selection, but the Cannes Film Festival is actually comprised of several different sections run by four separate film-based organizations who together screen hundreds of films for the thousands of attendees each year. It is also\u00a0undoubtedly one of\u00a0the most fabulous events in the South of France<\/a>!<\/p>\n

So, how do you get in to see a film in the running?\u00a0 Sadly, you can\u2019t! The theater passes for each film are severely regulated and securely held.\u00a0 In fact, the only non-film industry viewers allowed in are card-carrying residents of Cannes proper and formally organized and accredited film education groups.<\/strong> But, that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t take your chances hobnobbing with the stars, or angling for a paparazzi shot on the gorgeous beaches!<\/p>\n

Luckily for you, we have many vacation rentals in Cannes<\/a> so you can fully enjoy the festival. Take these two\u00a0examples:<\/p>\n

This 2-bedroom rental in Cannes (PR-916)<\/a> puts you at the heart of the action – just steps away from the stunning port, the high-fashion boutiques on La Croisette, and the world-famous red carpet at the Palais des Festivals et des Congr\u00e8s, where the awards ceremony is held each year.\u00a0 And when you\u2019re not out stalking your favorite celebrities, you can whip up a light summer lunch in the rental\u2019s new, sleek kitchen and enjoy it al fresco on the balcony.<\/p>\n

You can also check out this modern 3 bedroom Rental in Cannes, French Riviera (PR-737)<\/a>. Just a few minutes walk from the \u201cPalais des Festivals\u201d, this vacation rental features a private balcony that over looks a communal garden as well as fully equipped kitchen, onsite laundry facilities and a flat screen TV and Wifi.<\/p>\n

We hope you\u2019re on your way to see what all the fuss is about!
