About this property
Featured in The Sunday Times ’50 Best Villas’ 2019
Occupying a stunning hillside location and surrounded by pine trees, Villa Acuario is an utterly unique holiday home that sits at the highest point of Cala Vadella with beautiful views over the countryside and to the sea.
With its ultra-modern and quirky design, Villa Acuario is a holiday home like no other. A combination of glass and brightly coloured steel makes for an eye-catching and unforgettable look. The interior reflects the theme of the outer structure, with a complementary blue and green colour scheme throughout. Literally bringing the outside in and creating striking focal points are tree trunks in many of the rooms.
Villa Acuario is comprised of a main villa and two separate bungalows that have independent access from the lower garden area.
The main villa is set over two levels with exterior staircases. The open plan social space is extensive, with several distinct areas and patio doors that open onto the outside terrace. The living space features a comfortable sofa and selection of chairs that sit around a fireplace and television with DVD player. A dining table and chairs for up to eight people is positioned by the well-equipped kitchen with wine cellar. Two double bedrooms both feature double beds, ensuite bathroom with shower and a walk-in closet, with one bedroom also having an attractive fireplace. A guest toilet is an added convenience.
The main terrace has a stunning, private infinity pool and selection of loungers. This area offers uninterrupted views of the beautiful landscapes that surround you and is the perfect place to unwind with a drink and watch the sun going down over the hills. Below the main level of the villa is a wonderful relaxation area with a small pool and comfortable in-built seating. Elsewhere in the fully fenced plot is a garden of several levels with a dining area and an outdoor shower.
The orange bungalow has a double bedroom with double bed, ensuite bathroom with shower and a walk-in closet. Providing independent facilities is a kitchenette with a refrigerator, microwave and coffee machine. A beautiful private terrace features a lounge for enjoying the views.
The lilac bungalow also has a double bedroom with double bed, en-suite bathroom with shower and a walk-in closet. A desk is also included for catching up on emails or simply browsing the internet. The bungalow also has its own kitchenette and private terrace with lounge.
Despite being set high on a hilltop, glorious Cala Vadella is just minutes away by car. This beach is a spectacular sight as you drive through winding, pine-lined roads into the bay. With calm turquoise waters lapping gently at the sands and the hills providing shelter from strong winds, you'll feel as if you've arrived in yet another paradise location.
Popular with families, there are many ways to enjoy the sea at Cala Vadella. You can go swimming and snorkelling in the clear waters or hire a boat or canoe from a local shop. There are plenty of beachfront restaurants to choose from when lunchtime comes around, or you may prefer to make your own picnic and take it with you on a long day out. It's a popular spot for yacht and boat owners, so you'll enjoy watching the vehicles come and go.
San José is a sleepy village around 8 km east of the villa and is a charming place to spend a quiet afternoon. The pace of life is slow here, so enjoy strolling the streets and browsing the boutique shops at your leisure. Make sure you visit the beautiful whitewashed church and take in the fantastic views of the coast it offers. Whether it's lunchtime, the evening or cocktail hour when you visit San José, you'll find plenty of restaurants and bars to meet your needs. Surprisingly for a small village, the range of cuisines served at its eateries isn't restricted to just traditional Greek fare, with African, Asian and Mexican dishes also being on menus.
