Luxury 10-bed Mykonos marvel (Greece), €12,000,000

This stunning Greek villa echoes the traditional architecture of Mykonos

On the beautiful island of Mykonos, just ten minutes from the main town but soaking in solitude, is a glorious and luxurious 10-bed villa. Expect a stunning exterior with 1,000 sq m of living space, sitting on 13,000 sq m of land with the best view on the popular island.

Enjoys views over the sea from the swimming pool

Styled in the traditional white stone, albeit with contemporary flourishes, this villa is set over three floors beside a separate guest house closer to the pool. The hub of the household will be the ground floor, where a stylish kitchen is on show (and the workaday kitchen is more tucked away!) to provide the assembling station for your dinner parties (inside or out).

Stunning terraces are ideal for al-fresco entertaining

In addition to the dining area that seats eight, there is a larger external dining terrace that can be accessed from this floor. The area includes a spacious, bright sitting room with direct access to the pool area and uninterrupted views of the deep blue ocean beyond.

Bright and spacious rooms invite the luminous Greek sunshine inside

There is no shortage of beds for the many visitors that are sure to follow you: there are ten bedrooms, including staff rooms as required. The owner will get to enjoy the impressive master suite, which has access to a private balcony for personal moments of peace.

Ten bedrooms are spread across the property to provide ample accommodation for householders and guests

All bedrooms are accompanied by stylish, sleek bathrooms with a variety of bathing options to suit any householder. For those guests who would prefer their own autonomy while staying over, there is a guest house above the pool complete with bedrooms and a private kitchen-living-dining area.

Classic, neat yet luxurious design is visible throughout the villa

Your outdoor space is as beautifully designed and executed as the interiors, with various shaded and open terraces and a spectacular swimming pool (the salt water variety) with loungers. There is also access to a small private beach if you need to turn the view into a plunge.

Mykonos town – or Chora – is just ten minutes drive away and as pretty as a picture, with its car-free centre and charming knot of boutiques, cafes and restaurants. There is an international airport on the island (approx. 10 minutes drive from the villa) while ferries connect Mykonos with mainland Greece (Athens) as well as many of the other neighbouring islands.

5-bed Lefkada villa (Greece), €2,300,000

Views from this hillside villa are sublime

Nestled on a hill on the stunning Ionian island of Lefkada, this Greek villa offers the ideal property from which to enjoy the best this beautiful destination has to offer, plus the luxurious seclusion and stunning views we’d all like to have out of our kitchen window…

Spacious driveway starts the splendour of this Scandi-touched home

Night or day, the entrance to this impressive villa is a welcoming prospect. The interiors are elegant and contemporary, touched with a hint of Scandinavian style to make this home comfortable yet chic.

The ground floor is designed around multiple terraces; sliding doors create a seamless flow between out and in

The main section of the house is designed around two terraces, making use of large windows and sliding doors to create a sense of outdoor living even within the walls of the property. There is an open-plan sitting and dining area which opens onto the pool and the outdoor cooking area: a superb hub for entertaining all your friends and optimising the glorious setting.

Large dining area opens onto the terraces where seating areas provide more space for entertaining

The kitchen also has ample space for dining and is kitted out with all the latest conveniences without seeming to be – the slick, sleek design characteristic of the whole house is clearly evident here.

Neat but exquisitely fitted, the wood-toned kitchen is a beautiful space for food prep

In addition to a guest WC, this main floor also has one of the five bedrooms, which could make it ideal for guests in need of the privacy of their own suite. This room has a spacious sleeping area, a dressing area and an en-suite, in addition to a seating area and a terrace.

Five bedrooms are spread across the property and offer impressive views and access to terraces

The bathroom is – as all the bathrooms are – eye-catching and impeccably designed, almost more of an art piece than an area for showering (although the latter is delivered superbly!).

Elegant design in the bathrooms makes these areas more art work than ablutions

Many of the bedrooms could be deemed suites as they offer such space and privacy, some with seating areas and private terraces to allow a busy household to find spaces of contemplation and solitude.

Spacious bedrooms include seating areas for admiring the pool and the sea beyond

There are five bedrooms in total and a full house will surely spend much of the shared time out of doors in the beautiful grounds that surround the main villa.

The infinity pool is the feature of the back terrace, stretching towards the seemingly endless sea

The infinity pool stretches the length of the villa and hangs over the beautiful sea view that the hillside location of the space affords the property. It is surrounded by seating areas for dining and lounging options at different times of the day. You’ll soon find your favourite ‘sunset spot’.

Seating areas have been carefully placed for enjoying sunrises or sunsets

The outdoor kitchen area is just as sophisticated as the indoor facilities, complete with marble worktops, a sink and a barbecue. It will be a serene spot to grill your fresh fish amid the scent of pines, as your guests splash happily in the swimming pool. The dining area will provide one of the most stunning views you will have ever enjoyed with a meal.

A well-equipped outdoor kitchen and covered dining area are bound to be much used through the warm summer days

Despite its island status, Lefkada is accessible via a causeway by car or bus, with the closest airport situated 20km away: Preveza Aktion Airport. In addition to the beautiful beaches and some impressive historical sites, the island has many cafes, bars and restaurants. In Lefkada town, the marina comes alive on summer evenings, but day time pursuits include visiting the museum and the serene ‘Poet’s Garden’.

Beachfront idyll in Koh Samui (Thailand), £6,600,000

Resort-style living, with privacy…this would make a superb holiday home

Live the luxurious dream of island life by purchasing this impressive 9-bedroom beachfront property on Koh Samui. It’s situated in the island’s main town and slap-bang on the jaw-dropping Chaweng Beach.

The island’s Chaweng beach is well-known, stunning slice of coast

The whole property has a glorious outside-inside fluidity that maximises the stunning setting, with huge windows and fold-away glass doors that allows for a luxurious drift between the topical grounds and the elegant interiors.

The nine bedrooms are all very private and flow out into a small area of private terrace

The main living space is vast and open-plan, with a spacious flow between the sleek modern kitchen, the dining area and the lounging spaces. This impressive space is crowned by vaulted ceilings and contrasts black on white to make the room dramatic as well as comfortable.

Open-plan living, dining and cooking area allows for comfortable mixing of all householders and guests

From the kitchen, there are seriously convenient rooms tucked away for the owner’s benefit: a staff kitchen, storage room and guest toilet. And this being Thailand, where the food is world-renowned, you may find neither kitchen gets a lot of use, despite their elegance.

The elegant ‘public’ kitchen is supported by the staff kitchen, although you’ll be tempted out for Thai food at the nearby town

With so many delicious al-fresco terraces and a large pool area – with an infinity pool that stretches towards the ocean – it’s safe to say a lot of time will be spent out of doors, whether shaded or otherwise.

The pool is as elegant as the villa, while the view is provided by nature – and spectacular

For when the day is done, however, the house provides nine large bedrooms, all of which have stylish and luxurious en-suite bathrooms with rich details for that ‘wow’ factor.

Chic simplicity in interior design makes the bedrooms calming, all with exquisitely finished en-suite bathrooms

The bedrooms, like all other interior spaces, optimise the location and the natural light with huge windows and have direct access out to the pool area.

You’ll go in to brush your teeth and get tempted outside to the charming terrace area

This incredible villa is one of four secured properties in a small community, with shared access to a courtyard area where there is underground parking, a home-gym, a cinema room and a massage room. There are also management services available if required, which could help keep your property in good shape if you can’t always be there (but why wouldn’t you?).

Was there ever a better spot for some al-fresco dining and drinks? Watch the fishing boats as you sup

Within walking distance are a collection of excellent restaurants, bars, shops and local tourist attractions (for all those visitors who will rapidly invite themselves), such as tours to the elephant sanctuary or snorkelling/sightseeing tours to Angthong Marine Park.

The villa is one of four in a little community area, with shared facilities including a cinema and underground parking

For getting in and out, Koh Samui has a small international airport, with regular flights to Bangkok and beyond. There are also ferry services that connect Koh Samui to the mainland, with the quickest crossing taking 30mins to reach Koh Phangan.
