Homes with ocean views: destinations for an unforgettable summer
Homes designed to overlook the sea, blend into the landscape, and enjoy the summer from a privileged vantage point.
There are places where summer is experienced differently. Homes that open up to the horizon, terraces suspended over the water, windows that frame the blue, and a constant sense of calm that only comes when the sea is near. In this selection, we bring together four very different destinations, yet united by a single idea: that of turning views into a way of living and relaxing.
A house in Mexico, a penthouse in Formentera, a lighthouse in La Palma, and some cabins in Galicia make up this tour of unique spaces where landscape, architecture, and experience blend together naturally. Places designed to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy a summer vacation where the sea takes center stage.
Have you ever dreamed of sleeping in a lighthouse? To feel like a guardian of the sea for a few days
Lighthouses have always been mesmerizing, almost magical places… situated at the edges of the earth, at the ends of the world… a symbol of guidance and peace for sailors, once guarded by the keepers of the coast—lonely, anonymous heroes on the verge of extinction, known as lighthouse keepers.
A unique property where you can relax while listening to the rustling of the wind, the cries of the seagulls, and the crashing of the waves. The Punta Cumplida Lighthouse offers panoramic views of the entire island. Here, guests can not only stay in the former lighthouse keeper’s home but also enjoy breathtaking vistas by climbing the 158 steps leading to the top of the lighthouse to gaze out over the Atlantic Ocean, the island’s characteristic banana plantations, or its vast green mountains, from a height of 35 meters.
The perfect place to disconnect from the daily grind and reconnect with nature and yourself. Looking for a place of inspiration? Here you can live like a lighthouse keeper with every comfort you can imagine—a true luxury.

Four cottages with a Galician flair nestled between the forest and the Atlantic
One and the same essence: that of the most authentic, profound, and serene Galicia. These cabins are more than just architecture; they are a refuge for those seeking to return to the essentials—to a rhythm dictated by nature, to leisurely strolls among eucalyptus trees, with the constant murmur of the sea as a soundtrack.
In a strategic location in Marín, right on the Pontevedra estuary, near some of the most beautiful beaches on the Galician coast. Their design bears the signature of the prestigious Vigo architect Alfonso Penela, a leading figure in the contemporary reinterpretation of Galician architecture, who conceived these cabins under a premise as poetic as it is emphatic: each structure embraces a tree. A statement of principles that translates into a design that respects the environment, enhances it, and inhabits it without invading it.
A place where time stretches out and the senses awaken. Because sometimes, what is truly extraordinary lies in the simplest things. And Galicia, when experienced this way, is pure emotion.
