Tourist homes: behind the dream ...


The Residence is still dreaming investors. Of the 150,000 investors account market, 85% are individuals. On paper, this investment of buying an apartment in a residence for rent to vacationers, is attractive.

The furniture is designed in Provence cane, which is found along the coast and rustling in nature, a few meters from the shore.
