Experience

Rest, mostly

The point of the house is that there is nothing you have to do. The view does most of the work.

Wellbeing, quietly

Room to practise

There is no spa and no programme. What there is: a private gym that stays cool through the day, a 10-metre saltwater pool for real swimming, and enough open terrace to lay out a mat wherever the light is good.

A yoga teacher, a trainer or a massage therapist can come to the villa with notice — see Concierge below.

A day, loosely

From the swim to the lights

Early, the water is flat and the air is cool — the best time to swim. Breakfast on the terrace. The middle of the day moves between shade and pool. Late afternoon the heat drops and the hillside softens; by dark the coast below is a line of lights and the pool holds the last of the colour.

Beyond the villa

The island, close by

Everything here is a short drive from the house — see the Location page for approximate distances.
