This seafront villa is in the Akrotiri peninsula and boasts glorious sea views. The outside space, with a private pool, outdoor lounge and an alfresco dining area, is the star of the show, but there’s plenty to appreciate inside too. Each of the four bedrooms has its own en-suite, and the main bedroom has a private balcony and an excellent vantage point for the view. You’ll also have access to a communal tennis court, and there’s a wild beach just 300 metres away. Spread over three floors, though, this home won’t be suitable for everyone.
