This sun-soaked villa, with its curved edges, quaint blue shutters and infinity pool that cascades down the hillside, offers a serene stay for families or groups of friends. Inside, it’s minimalist yet cosy – we loved the beamed ceilings and earthy colour palette. Wake up bright and early with a breakfast of fresh produce and choose to sit at the dining table or head outside to the covered terrace.

In the afternoon, after a swim and a snooze on the comfortable loungers, slip on your sandals and explore Ornos – the beach is only a ten-minute walk away. Call upon your fantastic host and rent a boat to sail out of the bay and into the Aegean. If you’d prefer to stay on dry land, seek out a local taverna for delicious platters of seafood and snifters of ouzo.
