Perched above the iconic Clifton 3rd Beach, this modern villa is a true gem and an ideal base for a group of friends or a family to enjoy all that this coastal paradise has to offer. Set amidst luscious tropical trees and the rocky landscape, every detail of this home reflects and celebrates the natural abundance of its surroundings. Each bedroom has access to the outside space, with glass walls inviting the outside-in at every opportunity. The interior is instantly welcoming – its comforting home furnishings make this the kind of space that you’ll love spending time in after a day on the pristine sands below. Snuggle up in the cosy living room for a movie night, courtesy of Apple TV, or indulge in a chef-prepared feast around the huge wooden table. And with a HEOS sound system, you can soundtrack every memory here. Follow the views onto the terrace and discover your own panoramic oasis. With a plunge pool and built-in barbecue area, this is an idyllic setting to share a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc overlooking the sparkling waters of the sea. From here, days can be spent down on Clifton Beach where you can try your hand at... kitesurfing or take a kayak out for dolphin watching.
