Villa Stella
Perched close to the shoreline, Villa Stella offers sweeping views of verdant hills that roll down to the sea. The villa comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests and features spacious, light-filled interiors. Interiors favor soft, contemporary furnishings, varnished wooden walls and floors, and relaxed circular seating arrangements. The design prioritizes comfort and calm tones rather than busy patterns, creating a serene retreat. Outdoors, a pool overlooks manicured lawns and open fields, providing a peaceful spot to unwind. Villa Stella is available for bookings throughout August.
