Make the most of summer in a luxury villa
Why Rent a Villa for Your Holiday in July?
July marks the start of the long summer holidays, an ideal time to get away with
family or friends. Renting a luxury villa in July means making the most of long, sunny days, discovering new destinations and sharing special moments in a private setting. Whether you are looking for a
house by the sea, a property in the heart of the countryside or a villa with a private pool, Villanovo offers a selection of homes to suit every kind of summer stay.
Choosing a villa rental in July also means the freedom to organise your holiday at your own pace. Families appreciate the generous space and the child-friendly facilities, while groups of friends can gather by the pool, share meals on the terrace or set off to explore the area. For an even more comfortable stay, some of our houses offer
house staff, a
private chef or
concierge services.
Where to Go in July for a Holiday with Family or Friends?
In July, summer destinations invite you to make the most of long sunny days, between beaches, cultural discoveries and escapes into nature. Whether you are looking for the buzz of the coast or the calm of a private villa, many destinations lend themselves to holidays with family or friends.
In France, our
villas in Corsica make it possible to discover the beaches of
Porto-Vecchio, the coves of
Bonifacio and the villages of the interior. Our
villas in Provence invite you to wander through landscapes of olive trees, hilltop villages and Provençal markets, while the
Côte d’Azur appeals with its beaches and lively seaside resorts. On the Atlantic coast, the
Île de Ré is an ideal setting for beaches, cycle paths and charming villages.
In Spain,
Ibiza and
Mallorca invite you to discover the turquoise coves of the Balearic Islands. In Portugal, our
villas in Comporta let you stay among dunes, pine woods and sandy beaches. In
Italy, Tuscany and Puglia appeal with their landscapes and cuisine, while our
villas in Greece invite you to enjoy crystal-clear waters and traditional villages.
For a change of scene, our
villas in Marrakech and
Essaouira make an excellent base for discovering the souks and palaces of the ochre city or enjoying the charm of the Atlantic coast, before cooling off in a private pool on hot summer days. In
Mauritius, the austral winter brings pleasant temperatures for exploring tropical landscapes, discovering local markets and spending time on the island’s beaches.
Which Facilities and Services Should You Choose for a Stay in July?
In July, outdoor spaces play a major part in the choice of a villa. A
private pool allows you to swim at any hour, while a shaded terrace or a garden provides a pleasant space for meals and rest. In the hottest regions, air conditioning in the bedrooms can also be an essential criterion for a comfortable stay.
For a holiday by the sea, some properties have direct beach access or are a few minutes’ walk from the coves. Others offer sea views from the terrace or the pool.
Depending on the house, a
chef or cook can prepare meals, while housekeeping services make daily upkeep easier. These services may be included in the rental or offered at an additional cost. Some villas also have a
tennis court, a gym or facilities for children, allowing guests to vary sporting activities and leisure without leaving the property.
Which Dates Should You Plan for July 2027?
In July 2027, the month begins on a Thursday and ends on a Saturday. In the most sought-after destinations, notably Corsica, Ibiza and the Côte d’Azur, rentals are often made by the week, with
arrivals on a Saturday or Sunday. Some properties accept other arrival days, while minimum stays can vary according to the dates and the destination.
For large families and groups needing several bedrooms, it is advisable to book early. Villas with direct beach access, a private pool or house staff can be in
high demand during this period. Our specialists can confirm the availability and the terms of stay specific to each property.
