Choosing the right size of villa

The number of bedrooms is often the best place to start. One- and two-bedroom villas and apartments suit couples and small families, and many sit in towns or on the coast within walking distance of restaurants and the beach. Three and four bedrooms are the most popular size for families and two couples travelling together, usually with a private garden and pool.

Five and six bedrooms work well for extended families and groups of friends, and villas with seven or more bedrooms are made for big celebrations, reunions and multi-generation holidays, often in restored farmhouses and estates in the countryside.

What to check before you book

Look at how the bedrooms are arranged as well as how many there are. Ask how many bathrooms there are and whether they are en suite, whether any bedrooms are in a separate annexe or cottage, and whether bedrooms are on the ground floor if anyone in your group prefers to avoid stairs. Each villa page shows its sleeping arrangements, and our team can tell you more about the layout, outdoor dining space and pool size for larger groups.
