Modern and bright, what we love most about this dazzling villa is the garden. You can bet we'd spend every second here making the most of the fabulous weather – sunrise dips in the sparkling pool, afternoon catnaps in the sun-soaked lounge chairs and dinner and drinks in the evenings as the day slowly fades. Inside, floor-to-ceiling windows flood each room with light, while the breezy living space's open-plan layout makes socialising easy. We can picture early mornings gathered around the dining table and late nights spent sprawled out on the sofa watching films. The design is perfectly simple, yet it's as sleek and sophisticated as you'd expect from the outside, with modern comforts like rainfall showers and smart TVs only adding to the contemporary feel. Location-wise, you're an easy twelve-minute stroll from Ialysos Beach when the sea is calling your name. There are restaurants, bars and a bakery within walking distance but for a bit more choice, hop in the car and drive twenty minutes to Rhodes. With ancient ruins, imposing castles and old-world streets lined with eateries, it's the perfect spot for a wander in the sunshine.
