San Lorenzo has long had a reputation for its fine sandy beaches, and this home is in a prime position to make the most of them. Situated right in the heart of San Lorenzo's sandy stretch, you'll only have to walk 100m to get to the beautiful blue Meditteranean sea – making life much easier for families needing to keep the children entertained. Spend afternoons building sandcastles in the sun while waiting for the tide to come in and challenge your handy work. Then, head back to the villa to enjoy the home. It really is a wonderful space the whole family will find joy in. Sleek, modern and practical, you'll get all the pleasures of a traditional family holiday with the luxury of feeling like you're in a Meditteranean paradise. Watch the kids splash around in the pool while you and your loved one spend time together gazing out at the shimmering ocean. We especially think you'll love having romantic cocktail hours on the master bedroom's rooftop terrace. Pour an Aperol Spritz and watch the colour of the sky change as the sun sets. When you're looking to go further afield and explore the delights of this southern tip of...
