Island Marble

If sun, sea, and sand are at the top of your holiday wishlist, then this home provides them all. Located on the island of Paros, just steps away from the water's edge, this villa is the perfect place to press pause on everyday life and recharge your batteries in style. The traditional whitewashed exterior – typical of this region – gives way to a beautiful, serene living space. The neutral colour scheme with just a hint of blue reminds you that the sea isn't far away, and you can throw open the shutters to admire the views. Step outside for a better look – sip your coffee on the balcony each morning, or stretch out on a sun lounger to catch some rays. When the temperature rises, plunge into the swimming pool for a refreshing dip, and come evening your whole group can gather on the patio for a delicious alfresco meal. This home has direct access to the water, and is also close to several excellent beaches. Paralia Agia Irini is just a ten-minute walk away – it's bordered by palm trees and has sparkling turquoise water. If you're feeling active then take the ten-minute drive to Paros Kite Beach to try your hand at the sport, or simply kick back on the sand to watch. And, with the charming town of Parikia just a twelve-minute car ride away, culture fans can immerse themselves in the Cycladic way of life.
