Beach Vacations & Villas – Barefoot Days, Moonlit Shores

Beach vacations ease you into rhythm. Dawn comes with light on water, coffee carried to a terrace, and an unhurried walk to the shore. At 5 Star Villa Holidays, our beach villas are chosen to keep the sea close - some lifted above coves, others settled right on sand. Pick beach vacation rentals where the energy hums (Ibiza town views, Phuket’s night markets) or lean into quiet bays in Cyprus. These beach rentals give you space to live: wide terraces, kitchens meant for long lunches, bedrooms tuned to the tide. With us, every villa is verified, every detail checked, so your beach holiday is as honest as the horizon.

Top Destinations for Beach Vacations – Beach Villas by Sand and Sea

Ibiza - Villas near sandy coves and Old Town views

Soft coves by day, Dalt Vila by night. Beach villas here sit close to Cala Comte and Cala Bassa, with terraces that watch the water and lanes that lead to dining.

Phuket - Sea-view pool villas near Kata Noi, Surin, Naithon

Each beach has its mood: Kata Noi calm, Surin polished, Naithon unhurried. With 5 Star Villa Holidays, your beach vacation rental comes with route-clean transfers and local pointers for the best shore days.

Cyprus, Protaras - Walk-to-beach family coastline

Shallow bays, warm water, promenade strolls. Beach vacation rentals cluster near Sirina Bay and family-friendly coves; with 5 Star Villa Holidays, we flag child-easy entries and layouts that keep everyone close to the coast.

Zanzibar - Long beaches, sunrise palettes

Wide shores, tide-washed colors, spice and stone towns within reach. Villas open to verandas and pools edged with palms - coast and culture in one sweep, shaping a true beach vacation.

Cabo - Villas near Pedregal and El Tule

Pacific drama, city energy within minutes. Sea villas in Cabo look straight to the Pacific and keep you minutes from town. With 5 Star Villa Holidays, chefs, spa sessions, and boat trips are set before you arrive.

Algarve (Portugal) - Vale do Lobo and coastal towns

Golden beaches, cliff walks and late-night villages. Vale do Lobo has coastal villas looking straight at the Atlantic. Walk a few minutes and you’re in a beach café with grilled sardines and wine on the table.

Costa del Sol (Marbella, Estepona, Torrox Costa)

Evenings here run late. People drift along the promenade, rooftops stay warm, and the sea keeps moving in the dark. From Marbella’s pulse to Estepona’s slower pace, these coastal rentals keep the Mediterranean in view.

Bali (Canggu & beyond) - Berawa Beach and coastal lanes

Barefoot mornings on Berawa, cafés and sunsets by evening. Lofts for couples, larger estates for groups - villas that hold the island’s easy rhythm.

Goa (Assagao) - Close to Vagator & Ashwem

Portuguese-style homes in green lanes, beaches a short drive away. Market mornings turn into salt-air afternoons; coastal nights carry live music and simple seafood - an effortless beach vacation rental experience.

Maldives (Baa Atoll & beyond) - Lagoon-ringed villas

Powder sand, clear lagoons, skies without edges. Villas step straight into water, from intimate escapes to staffed estates - beach holidays in their purest form.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which are the best beach vacation destinations?

Ibiza for coves and nightlife. Phuket for steady sun. Cyprus for family beaches. Cabo for Pacific cliffs. Zanzibar and the Maldives for wide horizons. Tell us what you want, we’ll guide you.

Ibiza’s southwest, Koh Samui’s Lipa Noi, Protaras in Cyprus, Cabo’s Pedregal, Zanzibar’s estates, Bali’s Canggu, and the Maldives lagoons. Each offers a different rhythm for beach vacations stay.

Airbnb lists homes. We verify all beach rentals - if the beach is calm or surf-heavy, if it’s walk-to-sand or car-needed. With us, transfers, views, and comfort are tested before you arrive.

Caribbean for reef, warm seas, and winter sun. Mediterranean for variety - Ibiza, Cyprus, Portugal - best in summer. Many guests do both: Caribbean in winter, Mediterranean in summer.

Cabo is calm Dec–May. Phuket shines Jan–Apr. Cyprus and Spain are best May–Oct. Zanzibar works Jun–Oct. Maldives are year-round. Share your dates, we’ll align the coast.

Southwest Ibiza works best for families - sandy coves like Cala Tarida or Cala Vadella, with towns nearby for food and supplies. Villas here keep you close to calm water and still within reach of Old Town for day trips. Ask us which villas by the sea fit your family rhythm.

Yes. Surin in Phuket is all about hillside views and a quieter, upscale feel. Many villas here come with private pools that look straight to the Andaman. For couples, it feels like space made for two, with lively nightlife a short drive away if you want it.

Absolutely. Many beach vacation rentals in Kata Noi, Naithon, and Surin are built with infinity pools that melt into the horizon. Tell us what view matters most to you - sunrise, sunset, or open horizon - and we’ll place you there.

Yes. In Protaras, Cyprus, many beach rentals are a few minutes on foot to Sirina Bay or Fig Tree Bay. It’s an easy walk with children or even with shopping bags after a market visit.

Some are, some aren’t. Cabo’s coast is dramatic, with heavy surf in places. Some bays stay calm for swimming, and we point you to the villas set near those safer spots.

Larger Cabo estates work beautifully, as do twin-villa setups in Thailand like Tawantok on Koh Samui. Both give space to gather while still offering privacy between groups. If you’re planning a reunion or retreat, tell us early - these beach villas go fast.

Phuket works almost all year for a beach vacation. Even in the green season, mornings are often clear, and the island keeps moving at its own pace.
