Float & Soak

Nestled in a peaceful nature spot and surrounded by sprawling trees, bright flowers and long, lush grass, this home certainly sets the tone for a dreamy holiday. The inside is no different – a calming neutral colour scheme is combined with characterful interiors, such as stone arch ceilings and quirky decor, to make the home feel really special. The serene lounge is the perfect place to enjoy some you-time with a good book, and you’ll love cooking up feasts in the two contemporary kitchens.

The exterior is even more impressive – the large outdoor pool invites you to take a refreshing dip when it gets hot, while the table and chairs on the covered terrace mean that alfresco dining is an absolute breeze. You’ll also enjoy chilling out on your rooftop terrace, with a lounge area, dining area and a hot tub where you can soak while you gaze at the views of the ocean in the distance.

You’ll be located in Castrignano del Capo, near the lovely Santa Maria di Leuca, a coastal town that’s steeped in history. It offers vibrant shops, fantastic restaurants and a beautiful beach that sits just 900 metres from your home-from-home, with white sand and turquoise waters that are ideal for sea swimming. Make sure to explore the nightlife when the evening rolls in – there are plenty of friendly bars where you can enjoy a cocktail and a boogie.
