Nice climate
Nice's Mediterranean climate delivers 32–38 °C summer heat with high coastal humidity. Belle Époque and Italianate buildings trap heat in stone walls. Portable AC is the standard fix for expats and short-term renters where fixed AC installation is restricted by copropriétés.

What expats should know in Nice
Humid coastal nights
Sea humidity keeps Nice nights above 22 °C in August. Our units dehumidify while cooling, which matters more than raw BTU here.
Belle Époque buildings
Carré d'Or and Cimiez façades are protected; split units are routinely refused. A portable unit needs no permission.
Short holiday stays
Daily and weekly rates suit 1–4 week Riviera stays, Airbnb hosts and seasonal residents.
Riviera coverage
Same-day delivery to Villefranche, Beaulieu, Antibes and Cannes; Monaco on request.
Rent or buy in Nice?
French summers are short but brutal. Buying a portable unit costs €300–€700 plus storage for nine months a year — a real problem in Nice apartments with no cellar. Renting costs €19/day or €199/month, includes delivery, installation and pickup, and nothing stays in your flat after the heatwave. Buying wins only if you plan to use AC more than ~8 weeks every summer for several years.
