Raro Villas

13/10/2026

Corfu’s north eastern coast is the part of the island that discerning travellers tend to keep to themselves. No crowded harbours, no strips of nightlife: just secluded coves within walking distance, Mediterranean vegetation reaching all the way to the water and a sense of stillness that has become increasingly rare across the Mediterranean in July.

Villa Arete is part of the exclusive Perithia View estate, together with Villa Nafsika and Villa Athena: three independent properties along the same coastline, each sharing the same extraordinary 180 degree views across the Ionian Sea.

From the terrace, you can watch both sunrise and sunset, with the Albanian coast on the horizon and Perithia, one of the island’s oldest and best preserved villages, just a short walk away.

Four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a private swimming pool illuminated after dark.

The Corfu you will not find on the usual travel platforms, just minutes from some of the island’s most beautiful beaches.

What if you could watch both sunrise and sunset from the exact same terrace?

At Villa Nafsika—part of the exclusive Perithia View estate—that isn't a metaphor. Featuring 4 luxury bedrooms, 2 expansive panoramic terraces, and a illuminated pool for midnight dips, this property offers unobstructed 180° views of the Ionian Sea stretching to the Albanian coast.

Set in peaceful Perithia, it’s the side of Corfu tourist guides miss: total privacy, breathtaking light, and a view so captivating you’ll never want to leave the terrace.

The view isn't an add-on. It’s the core design.

Vaulted tuff ceilings. An infinity pool framing 180 degrees of the Itria Valley. A table set at sunset isn't for dining, it's for watching the day fade into the rolling hills.

No clutter, no distractions. Just Villa Amelia.

A 7-day trip or a 7-week stay?
Raro Villas solves the Tuscan dilemma.

Forget the postcard clichés about Renaissance light. Think Chianti at dawn, when you’re the only one walking the vineyard. Think spontaneous dinners around San Gimignano and farm-to-table meals cooked right in your kitchen.

From Val d’Orcia estates to classic countryside farmhouses, Raro properties are selected for travelers who want to truly live Tuscany, not just photograph it.

Think "modern luxury in Apulia" requires compromise?

Villa Prestige begs to differ. Two infinity pools, local stone, and sleek contemporary design come together effortlessly. The garden offers the best of both worlds: uninhibited views of the Itria Valley and pristine privacy. Ostuni is just a 13-minute drive away—if you can bear to leave the terrace.

Summer 2027 availability is now open, with peak dates booking fast.

There's a kind of morning every remote professional knows: an open laptop, coffee still warm, complete silence.

The difference is where it happens. A terrace on an Apulian masseria at seven, first light through the olive groves, no notifications beyond the ones you've chosen — a workspace no coworking hub can replicate.

In 2025, 67% of mobile professionals extended a business trip for personal leisure. Not digital nomads — executives, consultants, creatives who know the quality of a place shapes the quality of the work. The best workations follow a simple rhythm: protected mornings, afternoons entirely your own, and a residence where no one interrupts your day.

Masseria Lamacerase sits in the open countryside near Polignano a Mare, surrounded by olive groves and vineyards that set the rhythm of everyday life.

Its apartments and suites take their names from what grows around them — mulberry, citrus, lavender, almond — each with direct access to the gardens, for a total of 16 beds across five distinct spaces. Two swimming pools, the largest spanning 150 sqm, plus a whirlpool tub, open onto generous outdoor areas designed for both togetherness and privacy.

Polignano a Mare and its cliffs are just seven kilometres away — close enough for a morning by the sea, with the countryside always waiting for your return.

The two-kilometer unpaved road to Villa Massimiliano sets the tone: total privacy in the heart of the Tuscan countryside.

Located in the rolling hills of Valdera—close to Volterra, Florence, and Pisa—this luxury villa rental in Tuscany features five bedrooms across four levels, including a master suite with a Jacuzzi and panoramic terrace.

Outside, expansive gardens hold an 18-meter private swimming pool and a traditional wood-fired oven. Just 600 meters away, the estate's farm offers an farm-to-table restaurant and an equestrian center for horseback riding through the vineyards.

Today’s luxury villa guests want the best of both worlds: the complete privacy of their own swimming pool and the space to maintain an active lifestyle while away.

For many, golf is already part of their routine, padel is a weekly fixture, and the hidden coves of Portobello di Gallura are best explored by catamaran. Vacation is no longer about pressing pause on these passions—it is about enjoying them in total freedom.

From a Trackman golf simulator inside the villa to 18 holes in Porto Cervo, a private padel court, or a catamaran waiting on the shore, these high-end amenities are redefining luxury travel in Italy.
