Private pool villas

Your own pool, your own pace

About this collection

Villas where the pool is yours alone, from cliff-edge infinity pools to shaded family pools in quiet gardens.

A private pool is what turns a holiday home into a proper villa holiday: morning swims before anyone else is up, afternoons that drift by on a sun lounger, and no towels on loungers at dawn.

Every villa in this collection will come with a pool reserved for your party. Look out for heated pools if you're travelling in spring or autumn, and fenced or alarmed pools if you're travelling with young children.

What to look for

Heated pools
Worth having for shoulder-season trips, when the water can be cool.
Pool safety
Fencing, alarms or covers give peace of mind with little ones.
Sun and shade
Check which way the terrace faces and whether there's shade for the hottest hours.
