Beach villas, the 5 best from Villas Worldwide

Beach villas of real quality are hard to come by for holiday rent for the simple reason that they are highly sought after and tend to book up very early. As beach villa specialists Villas du Monde - Villas Worldwide has an excellent choice and to help you here are the best five.

The Beach COMTC53, aptly named, is smack bang on the top of a dune which overlooks the Cala Rossa beach, near Porto Vecchio in Corsica, a white sand haven lapped by the warm waters of the crystal clear Mediterranean Sea. This is a classic villa which dates back to the 1950’s and oozes a genteel style with spacious rooms which have all been renovated. The terrace, sheltered by a mature Mediterranean pine tree is pure magic for enjoying a proper French breakfast, a lazy lunch or admiring the sublime sunset. To reserve a holiday here you have to book a year ahead for most peak dates.

Palombaggia PVMT14, a wonderful modern villa with private pool is named after arguably the most stunning beach on the beautiful French island of Corsica, which is renowned for its amazing beaches. That makes this villa one of the most desirable villas on the much coveted island. Its also one of the most expensive and one of the first to book up for peak dates so again you need to book early if you want to enjoy this magnificent villa, so perfectly located.

Sur la Plage COMTC1201 is another Corsican villa which we just had to include here. As its name suggests it is right on the beach and as there is limited access it is as close as you can get to being private. Furthermore there is even a private tennis court.

Pelagie GCP605 is a dream villa, set on the rocks overlooking the sea, with an outdoor hot tub where you can relax and enjoy the sun or the stars and listen to the lapping of the waves. It could not be more romantic or idyllic. A short stroll takes you to a fabulous beach and the delightful Greek resort of Stoupa. This is a villa which is highly prized by honeymooners from all over the world.

Sable d’Or B909 translates from French to Golden sands and once again the name of the villa gives the game away. Southern Brittany lies on the Gulf Stream which warms the sea flanking superb sandy beaches which are interspersed with rocky promontories, creeks and small fishing ports. The great thing about Sable d’Or other than the nearby beach is that you can stay here any time of year as the villa has a heated indoor pool along with a very impressive array of equipment including a gym, billiards table and a sauna.

Choose from the Villas du Monde - Villas Worldwide selection of over 60 beach villas which are within walking distance of the sea, they are all very high quality and well priced.
