December is a unique month. The streets light up, families finally reunite, conversations linger over cozy dinners, and the last days of the year naturally invite reflection. During this time of coming together, taking stock, and dreaming of the year ahead, one idea often arises in discussions: what if we started planning our summer holidays already?
At Living 71, specialists in luxury villa rentals, we observe the same trend every year: December has become one of the best times to plan a summer getaway, especially to the most exclusive destinations. And among them, one area stands out for its prestige, climate, glamour, and incomparable lifestyle: the French Riviera, between Saint-Tropez and Monaco.
From the legendary beaches of Pampelonne to the secluded coves of Cap d'Antibes, passing through the exceptional panoramas of the Esterel mountains or the rare charm of the Monegasque coastline, this region boasts the most sought-after villas every summer. The holiday season is therefore the perfect time to discuss it with family, imagine your future, and reserve the ideal property before it's snapped up.

1. In December, we get together… and dream together about next summer
One of the great advantages of December is that it finally brings the whole family together: parents, children, close friends, sometimes even several generations around the same table. It's one of the rare times of the year when everyone can give their opinion, express their desires, and build a common project together.
✔️ A favorable time for decisions
Between festive meals, the discussions naturally drift towards the following year: – Where to go? – What to do together? – What kind of trip do we really want to get together?
In this warm atmosphere, the desire to escape comes to life. And the idea of a summer under the sun of the French Riviera, in an exceptional villa with swimming pool, panoramic terrace and quick access to the beaches, is often unanimously appealing.
✔️ A destination that makes all generations dream
Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Cap d'Antibes, Èze, Menton, Monaco… These names evoke luxury, charm, turquoise sea, secluded coves, gourmet restaurants, and refined summer evenings.
Whether you are travelling with young children, with teenagers, as a couple or with a family, the French Riviera offers everything that makes up a perfect holiday.
2. Why book your villa between Saint-Tropez and Monaco as early as December?
The French Riviera is one of Europe's most popular destinations in the summer, and luxury villas with sea views, large swimming pools, Mediterranean gardens and privileged access are the first to be booked.
⭐ Access the most exclusive properties
The premium villas in Ramatuelle, Saint-Tropez, Cap d'Antibes, and Roquebrune-Cap-Martin are often rented year after year by repeat guests. Booking in December allows access to:
to the beachfront villas,
properties with extra-large swimming pools,
to private, secure areas
to contemporary houses with rooftops and sea views,
to ultra-private architect-designed villas.
⭐ Choosing the perfect weeks
Between the holidays, everyone knows their availability for the summer. Booking now allows you to:
to lock in July or August for the ideal dates,
to coordinate family schedules,
to avoid compromises imposed by a lack of availability.
⭐ Plan luxury services in advance
The French Riviera offers exceptional experiences… but they are in high demand. Booking in advance guarantees you privileged access to:
a private chef,
a skipper for a sea trip
a table in a beach club in Pampelonne
a private driver,
a massage therapist who comes to your home
a personal trainer or a yoga coach,
a dedicated concierge service 24/7.
In December, anything is still possible. In April… much less so.
