Small but utterly charming, this tiny apricot-coloured villa on the coast of Gran Carnia is perfect for a family getaway or couples retreat. Inside, the bright and modern interior is a haven from the sun. Rustle up a meal in the sleek kitchen, snooze in the comfortable bedrooms and relax in the living area with a film after a long day. But the real draw is the tiny garden. It may be pocket-sized, but it packs a punch – soak your troubles away in the hot tub, fire up the barbecue for an alfresco feast or sprawl out in the sunshine on the lounge chairs. There's even a balcony off the master bedroom where you can sip wine and watch the ocean waves roll in. When you need to cool off, take a dip in the shared swimming pool or grab your beach gear and hit the sand – Playa del Inglés is a seven-minute walk away. A vast array of bars, restaurants and shops are also within easy reach, so when you don't feel like cooking, you'll have plenty of options.
