As Free As The Sea

Perched on a cliffside on the edge of Monte Argentario, the sunset views from this home are sublime. From the dining table on the terrace, you can gaze out over the sea and there are plenty of seating nooks in the shade. The real highlight is the private staircase leading down the cliffside to a rocky swim platform set up with loungers and parasols. Just remember, it’s quite a climb back up to the villa. The living room is huge, so big groups will feel at home here, and a wall of windows shows off the sea view inside. Tiles in the bathrooms might be a little garish for some, but who cares when the outside space comes with that view. Home truths: *While not all of the bedrooms and bathrooms are photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home. *This villa has a private staircase to the sea, but there are quite a lot of stairs to the bottom and it's a rocky shore rather than a sandy beach. *A stay here includes a daily Italian breakfast, a welcome dinner on the first day and daily cleaning. *In a remote location, having a car is recommended. There is private parking with this villa.
