Celestial Beings

You'll find this modern gem situated in the hills above Methoni. With such an excellent location, you can expect the views to match, and there's no better spot to take it all in than the roof terrace. Not only can you catch a glimpse of the clear blue sea, but the village's famous 13th-century castle and the island of Sapienza are also on the horizon. It's the perfect place to toast your holiday with a glass of wine from the welcome basket and watch the glorious sunsets. Meanwhile, afternoons are best spent floating in the crystal clear pool and dining alfresco on the patio – if some fun in the sun is what you're after, you can't do much better.

Inside, it's as minimal and sleek as the exterior, with crisp white walls and big windows showing off the vistas. Both bedrooms are comfortable and stylish and boast luxe en-suite bathrooms to boot. The open-plan living area is a little compact, but with the doors open onto the garden and the breeze blowing through, indoor/outdoor living is effortless. Stroll down into Methoni when you fancy a change of pace – the castle, the beach and the town's array of eateries are twenty minutes away.
