We'll gladly source the best option for you and let you have it at a price that's guaranteed to be better than going direct.

With its wonderful Mediterranean climate providing warm, sunny days from Spring through to Autumn, the Côte d’Azur is a perennially popular destination for a languid villa holiday. We think the ideal villa is tucked away somewhere peaceful and private, with a large private swimming pool (preferably salt-water), with access to tennis courts and within easy strolling distance of the beach. Of course, being in the Côte d’Azur, there will be delightful restaurants and pretty hillside villages in abundance nearby.

The villa itself should be light, airy and contemporary and - to survive peak summer temperatures - should be air conditioned throughout. Oh, also, so everyone can relax, the villa should come with a chef to do all the cooking and food shopping. Somewhere like 5 bedroom Villa Lara - just one of our luxury villas here. Too many or too few bedrooms? Please get in touch.

Croatia is a new and interesting villa holiday destination. High quality options are still pretty limited but we have around a dozen gorgeous private villas in our 'little black book' on the mainland and a sprinkling more out on the islands. Sizes range from 3 to 7 bedrooms and all have private pools, and some have private boat moorings (such as 5 bedroom Cove Villa near the medieval walled town of Ston). Out on the islands, consider lovely 5 bedroom Hvar House in the Old Town or 5 bedroom Tourmaline on the pretty inlet at Milna on Brac Island. Alternatively, you may like a 2 or 3 bedroom villa / residence within the grounds of a fabulous seaside family-friendly hotel like Sun Gardens Dubrovnik  We have about 20 villas in the region and will gladly track down the best option for you. Please get in touch

Corfu has an abundance of gorgeous villas, ranging from £1,700 to £30,000 per week. We have over 100 on our books from 1 to 7 bedrooms!

One of our favourite villas, peacefully secluded but in walking distance to both Avlaki and Kassiopi, is Vinita - a gorgeous 5 bedroom gem.

We recommend Ibiza from late Spring to Autumn. The number and variety of villas (from 1 to 7 bedrooms) on the White Isle is extensive but, by late Spring, you can bet that most of the best ones for the summer holidays will have been booked. We have over 30 villas on our books in Ibiza, so please just get in touch and we'll find one to suit you. In the meantime, do take a look at one of our 3 bedroom Ibiza villas or one of our 4 bedroom Ibiza villas. These are both at the lower end of the price spectrum, as are the contemporary 1 to 3 bedroom villas at Hotel Can Lluc. For a truly special villa, check out 5 bedroom clifftop C'an Castello. 7 nights villa rental in Ibiza starts at around £2,500 and keeps on going comfortably past £25,000. In fact, if you want to really splash out (6 figures), you could always book a 5 suite villa on its very own 150 acre private island just 1km off Ibiza's north east coast.

The combination of climate, cuisine, tranquility and diversity puts Puglia on the list of great villa holiday options. Naturally, villas that are built within or around ancient trulli (with their conical roofs) are particularly popular, as are those with easy access to the region's unique towns and villages. For example, 3 bed Trulli Le Rose is in walking distance of local restaurants and shops, and just 3km from magical Alberobello; whilst 4 bed Trulli dei Pini is in strolling distance of centuries old Cisternino, and stunnning 5 bedroom Masseria Coloniale is near a sandy beach.

Everyone raves about Cape Town. If you've never been, we highly recommend putting it on your 'must get to soon' list and if you like the idea of enjoying this magical place in your own 'home' for a week or two, you'll be spoilt for choice. Beachside boho-chic or sublime luxury, fully staffed and catered, or casual ad hoc arrangements.  Visiting yoga teacher?  Tour of the vineyards in Stellenbosch?  Advice on the best restaurants?  Whatever you like, we'll have it covered.

Cape Town has the added advantage of being in practically the same time zone as Europe, so no jet lag. The most popular time to visit is over Christmas and New Year, but if you want to be sure of getting a flight or a villa you'll need to remember to book at least 6 months in advance.  We recommend 12 months. As an alternative to a villa, why not take over a small luxury 4 bedroom hotel like 21 Nettleton?

Warm turquoise sea, white sand beaches, gentle island rhythms and big smiles. Welcome to the Caribbean!  We have a secret list of truly exceptional, luxurious hideaways together with some lovely, more understated villa options.  Which island do you fancy?  Anguilla, Antigua, Barbados, Grenada, Jamaica, Mustique, St Barths, St Kitts & Nevis, BVI, St Lucia or St Vincent & The Grenadines?  As you can tell, there's plenty of choice. Take a look at a Selection of Luxury Caribbean Villas from 1 to 10 bedrooms.

For the ultimate holiday, a private island is a once in a lifetime experience.  Voavah (pictured) is the sublime new Four Seasons private island in the Maldives' Baa Atoll.  This is the world's first exclusive use UNESCO hideaway, set in 5 acres, with 7 bedrooms (over 3 different structures, with every conceivable amenity, and fully staffed and catered) and your own luxury motor yacht.  You'll need to splash out upwards of £175,000 - even if that's an all inclusive price for up to 22 guests. See Voavah Private Island

Luxury villas in private island resorts come in at rather less than that. Perhaps the Caribbean (Petit St Vincent), Madagascar (Miavana), Zanzibar (Mnemba), Maldives (Kuda Huraa) or the Seychelles (Zil Pasyon) would be of interest instead?
