All The Blues

All The Blues: Aegean South

We could spend every day enjoying the outdoor spaces at this Rhodes villa. Swimming laps in the infinity pool overlooking the sparkling sea, sprawled out on a turquoise lounger or plush outdoor sofa in the shade, playing boules in the sunshine, or grilling away at the built-in stone barbecue. The craggy hillside backdrop to this classic stone villa adds a touch of drama and sunsets are best enjoyed from one of the first floor balconies, with a cold drink in hand.

Inside it’s a reminder of your seaside location, with ceramic fish and fishing boat watercolours livening up the pristine white rooms. Glass sliding doors link the living room and the outdoor terrace, so you can let the sea breeze flow through and bask in the sunlight all day. Bedrooms are havens of minimalism with tiled floors keeping things cool underfoot, and two have access to their own private balconies – perfect for a morning coffee.

When it comes to exploring Rhodes, you’re in a beachy location with the quiet pebbly stretch of Traganou Beach a half-hour walk (or four-minute drive), and the charming beach town of Afantou is a six-minute drive away too.
