Which Holiday Destinations Are Best For Luxury Villas?
People go abroad on holidays for various reasons, and “just to get away from everything” usually features pretty close at the top of any list. A lot of people take the opportunity to literally get away from everything, opting for a holiday destination such as a villa rather than a hotel or apartment complex in the centre of a vibrant tourist resort.

Getting Away From It All
Going away to a villa has many benefits. Firstly, if you are taking a lot of people with you in your holiday party, you can generally get much better value for money. The cost of rooming a group of 8, consisting of 4 couples, into a hotel or apartments would be high in comparison to the cost of a villa, where you simply pay for the accommodation. There is also the added luxury of having your own space, no idiots larking around in the swimming pool and getting in the way while trying to relax, and importantly, no shortage of sunbeds because everyone put their towels on them when they got in from clubbing at 3am!
So where are the best destinations in Europe for luxury villas?
