The seduction begins the moment you arrive at Villa Lina (DER), as you pass through a verdant arbor and beside a small pond surrounded by beautiful exotic plants. Then it is enhanced, as you step into the cool sanctum of the gracious, flowing living area. This vacation home’s playfulness is welcomed in this tranquil environment, which is defined by the cooling ocean breezes and spectacular Caribbean Sea views beyond Colombier and Flamands beaches, as well as the surrounding emerald-colored hills.
The views are commanding everywhere: the living area, the terrace, the bedrooms and especially the endlessly inviting infinity pool. And the visuals inside are just as natural and appealing, as the main materials are wood and stone, which merge the indoors and out. And, of course, light. Large bay windows in the front and the rear allow sunlight to stream in and Villa Lina’s privileged guests look out. They can be opened to let the breezes waft through.
Well-suited to families—who would be well advised to retain Sibarth’s concierge to plan activities for all ages and see that some of the cooking is taken care of—Villa Lina’s layout includes two good-size bedrooms on either side of the spacious living area. Each has its own private bathroom with a walk-in shower and dressing area. A third, smaller bedroom is suitable for young children or a nanny, and has a bathroom right across the hall. The villa also includes an outdoor shower.
