Language homestay with French host family is the most efficient for language learning.
French families are carefully selected by the school for their openness and friendliness and can be made of a single parent, active retired people or families with or without children.
French language home-stay in Cannes is the most efficient option for language learning and a great way to learn about local culture, experience daily life with your hosts and learn everyday expressions. You get an insight into French people and culture that the tourist seldom sees.
Minimum age is 16 years old. Host family stay is particularly suitable for single students – teenagers from 16 y.o or adults.
We suggest parents with children and independent adults attending our French summer school to stay in one of these guesthouses which offer similar services to host families, more space and comfort : Villa Belle Rive (with a swimming-pool and direct beach access), Villa Blue Dream Cannes (with a swimming-pool) and Villa Roc Fleuri.
Bedroom: Students are lodged in a single or a double room.
Meals: Your host family provides you half-board : breakfast and dinner. Lunches are provided during the week-end if the student has confirmed he/she will be at home.
Internet: All our host families have a wifi-internet access.
We pride our organization with staying in close touch with our host families who have welcomed our students for many years. They are happy to share their everyday lives with you and make you feel at home.
Students have plenty of opportunities to communicate with their hosts. This will ensure the best language learning experience. As a visitor of the region, we encourage you to take part in activities and excursions in the afternoons with your hosts.
Choosing to stay with a host family is the best way to discover a different lifestyle and have an immersion French programme.
We do our best to pay particular attention to your requirements concerning allergies, diet, non-smokers, animals, etc. So, students must specify any requirements at the time of booking the French homestay program.
When we know your dates of interests, we provide you with a list of available French family home-stay options.
All the families live near the school. Some of them live within a walking distance from the school. Some families may live further away, so you may have to take the bus or train for 10-15 minutes.
The host family will meet you at the Nice Côte d’Azur airport or at the Cannes train station.
Simply send us your arrival time as well as your flight/train number before your arrival. This service is available between 7 am and 11.30 pm on Saturdays and Sundays. For later arrival or change of arrival or departure, inform us as soon as possible.
The accommodation is available starting Sunday before the start of your French summer program. Departures are on Saturday. Extra nights upon request.
We will indicate the contact details of your host family in the confirmation letter. We encourage you to send an introductory e-mail.
Also, Your host family’s address and any extra information will be sent to you as soon as your French language program is confirmed.
