Stunning villa, dramatic views. The very best.

We stayed at Bella Vista at the end of last summer and it really is in class of its own. Paradise.
The villa is set in an exclusive, small, gated estate of stunning architecture and beautiful landscaping, I can't tell you how good just that bit feels! Because of its elevation and proximity to the sea, the scenery and views from the whole of the estate are spectacular, but in my view, Bella Vista has the top position, perched above the sea and with just about the best sea view you could enjoy.
The space works really well, both inside and outside, and offers a really good level of privacy for a big group, which is what lets so many larger villas down. All the decoration is in good taste and the quality of the furnishings, fittings and equipment is much higher than you might expect, even in top-end properties - this makes all the difference to day-to-day enjoyment.
Outside, the multiple spaces allow for a continuous change of scene – swimming, BBQ, bar, seating, lawn and private swimming dock in the sea – and they all help make it work really well for groups and families.
Being able to swim in the sea easily from the house is a great plus point and the local sandy beach is particularly lovely in the evening. Also, it’s well worth pointing out that there are some wonderful local restaurants in really lovely settings, on beaches and in the hills, which are remarkably good value. Definitely worth asking the agent for details - some need to be booked in advance.
We will be back!

Owner's Response: We have furnished and equip the villa to compliment the high standard of the building and of course the view.
Materials used, art, beds, bedding, kitchen equipments and utensils, are all from the highest quality. We hanged large mirrors on walls opposite the windows that every second end wherever we look we can see the fantastic sea and bay view.
we am glad to see that our gusts enjoyed their stay and will be back.
