With direct access to the sea via a meandering stone path through Mediterranean-planted gardens, this home couldn’t have a more idyllic setting. Not that you have to walk anywhere to admire the sea views – you can enjoy them from the various balconies, terraces and from inside too. The home is divided into the main villa and a trullo annexe offering flexible living, so it’s ideal for families or friends. One guest will also be sleeping on a sofa bed at full occupancy. This place is perfect for those seeking a tranquil escape, with the added bonus of being close to the shore.
