The perfect family villa getaway

Life moves fast, and finding the time to connect with your loved ones can feel like a luxury in itself. That’s why a villa holiday can be such an incredible experience. It offers the chance to pause, unwind, and reconnect with the people who matter most—all while enjoying the benefits of your dream destination. These are the settings where little moments, like morning swims and games by the pool, turn into the lifelong memories you’ll look back on with a smile. Whether you’re planning a an adventurous trip with extended family, or a first getaway as new parents, SPL Villas offer the perfect villa for everyone.

Here’s how a villa holiday can turn your next holiday into cherished family moments.

The perfect family villa getaway

Space for everyone to feel at home

One of the greatest joys of a villa holiday is the sense of space and freedom it offers. Unlike traditional hotels, villas provide enough room for every member of your family to relax, play, and bond in their own way. Take Villa Sunset in Cyprus, for example. With year-round sunshine and neighbouring villas for larger groups, this is perfect for extended families. The familiar ease of driving on the same side of the road makes exploring stress-free, while the villa's central location allows you to visit stunning beaches, historical sites, and quaint villages with ease.

Whether it’s a morning swim in your private pool or a relaxed barbecue dinner under the warm evening sky, Villa Sunset sets the stage for a holiday that feels like home.

Tailored moments that bring everyone closer

Villa holidays allow you to steer the experience in a way that fits your family’s unique dynamic. Villa Lisce in Croatia is a great example of a property that caters to family-style customisation. This spacious villa, spread over three floors, includes a heated pool, sauna, and hot tub for those times you want to completely unwind. Alfresco cooking and dining areas turn every meal into a memorable gathering, and the panoramic views make for the perfect backdrop to reconnect as a family.

Extra touches for unforgettable experiences

What truly sets villa holidays apart are the thoughtful touches that elevate the experience from relaxing to extraordinary. At Vila Shangri-la in Zante, you’ll find an added layer of indulgence, perfect for creating family memories. From the option of a private chef ready to prepare exquisite meals to the separate spa building where massages can be arranged, everything at Vila Shangri-la is designed to make your moments extra special.

This villa is a popular choice for yoga retreats, small weddings, and group celebrations. Whether your family is looking for serene mornings filled with mindfulness or a reason to truly mark a milestone in style, Zante’s beauty paired with Vila Shangri-la’s offerings creates the perfect atmosphere.

Making every day effortless

Sometimes the greatest luxury is simplicity, and Villa Sousa in Carvoeiro Algarve delivers just that. This traditional-style villa combines generous space with an unbeatable location. Being close to local shops, tempting bars, and sandy beaches means there’s something for everyone to enjoy within a short distance.

Spend the day catching some sun at your favourite beach, enjoy an easy walk to a family-friendly local eatery, and then retreat to the comfort of your villa to rest and recharge. With every convenience close at hand, you can focus on what matters most—each other.
