You’ll find this luxurious villa in Gournes, in a serene spot with breathtaking sea views and a private pool. It’s part of a complex of three villas that stand side by side – it’s not the most private set-up so won’t suit everyone. But if you don’t mind the proximity to your neighbours, you’ll love the gym, private pool and hot tub. Huge windows flood the villa with light and mean that you can enjoy those views from almost every angle. Two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room, which might not be the most comfortable for long stays.

What started out as a fortified harbour town has grown into a bona fide tourist hotspot, popular for its year-round warm weather and palm-tree-lined seaside promenade.
