From the mountains of Morocco to the coastlines of Mauritius, Portugal, Spain and Corsica, these villas have been selected for one defining feature: a view that shapes the experience of the house and its outdoor spaces.
Just outside Marrakech, Villa Rose de l’Atlas looks towards the Atlas Mountains, with the landscape changing as the light shifts throughout the day. Its gardens and generous outdoor spaces open onto the surrounding scenery, providing different places to enjoy the setting, from breakfast on the terrace to a refreshing swim in the pool and evenings outdoors.
Set within the landscapes of the Marrakech Palmeraie, Villa Noor Palmeraie looks towards the Atlas Mountains beyond its olive and palm trees. The gardens frame the distant peaks and create a secluded setting away from the centre of the city, while keeping it within reach. It is particularly well suited to families and friends looking to combine time at the villa with days exploring the city.
At Villa Tiara, the turquoise lagoon of Poste Lafayette forms the backdrop to the stay. Facing the beach, the villa opens towards the Indian Ocean, allowing guests to enjoy the changing colours of the water throughout the day. The pool and outdoor living areas make it easy to spend much of the day outside, between the villa, lagoon and shore.
Set on the west coast of Mauritius, Villa Matahari occupies a beachfront position facing the Indian Ocean. Tropical vegetation surrounds the house while terraces and outdoor living areas open towards the sea. The setting lends itself naturally to days spent between the beach, the villa and the water, followed by evenings overlooking the ocean.
Set above Praia de Salema, Villa Salema Vista enjoys wide views over the Atlantic and the Algarve coastline. The ocean can be seen from the terraces, bedrooms and private pool, creating a close connection between the house and its coastal setting. Its elevated position makes it a perfect choice for travellers who want the Atlantic horizon to remain present throughout the stay.
Occupying a clifftop position in the Algarve, Vila Tacio looks out towards the Atlantic Ocean. Its terraces, rooftop spaces and pool area provide several perspectives over the coastline, allowing the outdoor spaces to be used at different moments of the day. It is a natural choice for travellers looking to rent a luxury villa where the sea and outdoor living are central to the stay.
Casa Moore occupies a distinctive position in Port Lligat, overlooking the landscapes of Cap de Creus. Sea views extend across the property, from its terraces to the infinity pool above the Mediterranean Sea. The rocky coastline and changing light are characteristic of this part of Spain, creating a very different setting from other Mediterranean regions.
In the heart of Cadaqués and only a few steps from the Mediterranean Sea, Villa Velleda combines a central location with views towards the sea. Its terrace and garden provide outdoor spaces from which to enjoy the coastal setting while remaining close to the streets, waterfront and restaurants where visitors can discover the region’s delicious cuisine. It offers an easy balance between time at the villa and everyday life in Cadaqués.
Set above Olmeto in southern Corsica, Casa Ondella enjoys uninterrupted views across the Gulf of Valinco. From the landscaped grounds, the panorama extends towards the Mediterranean Sea, while the infinity pool appears to meet the horizon. Its elevated and secluded setting provides a quiet base from which to enjoy this part of the island.
Villa Marcu brings together several of Balagne’s characteristic landscapes, with views towards the Mediterranean, the Bay of Calvi, its citadel and the surrounding mountains. The terraces and pool provide different vantage points over the coast and countryside, making the changing scenery part of days spent at the villa with family or friends.
A villa with a view changes the way its outdoor spaces are used throughout the day. Breakfast might be taken facing the Atlas Mountains, a morning swim overlooking the Mediterranean Sea or dinner served with the Indian Ocean on the horizon. Rather than simply providing a backdrop, the landscape becomes part of daily life at the property.
The architecture of the villa also plays an important role in this relationship with the surroundings. Generous terraces, large windows, infinity pools and carefully arranged outdoor living areas create natural connections between inside and outside, making it possible to enjoy the landscape from different parts of the house.
For a family holiday, a romantic getaway or a stay with friends, choosing a luxury villa for its view also means choosing a particular setting: the mountains outside Marrakech, the lagoons of Mauritius, the Atlantic coast of Portugal or the Mediterranean landscapes of Spain and Corsica.
Villanovo offers a hand-picked selection of luxury villas across Europe, Africa and the Indian Ocean. Depending on the property, guests may find a private pool, direct or nearby beach access, spacious gardens, house staff or the services of a private chef.
Our collection includes houses overlooking the sea, mountains and countryside, as well as beachfront properties and more secluded villas. Across Spain, for example, coastal settings extend from the Costa Brava to the Costa Blanca, while Portugal, Corsica and Mauritius offer very different relationships with the sea and surrounding landscape.
A villa gives guests the freedom to organise meals and days at their own pace, while additional services can be arranged depending on the property. Our concierge teams can assist with airport transfers, private dining, activities, boat trips and family services without imposing a fixed programme on the stay.
A personalised travel book completes this service, bringing together selected restaurants, beaches, activities and places to discover, so guests can explore each destination at their own pace.
