Villas in South Island from CHF 207

Villas might just be the most luxurious accommodation you could find in South Island. Whether you're after a glimmering pool in a palm-shaded garden or a terracotta patio topped with enticing sunbeds, these sorts of stays can really help you channel your inner jet setter. It's also common to get big lounge spaces and interiors that are laden with thought-provoking art and interesting decor. What's more, the added level of privacy that comes with a villa stay means you won't have to share any of those with anyone.

While some travellers love the service offering of big spa resorts, others see the independence that comes with bedding down in a villa rental as an extra luxury. You don't have to live to any schedule here. You can rise when you want and go to bed when you want. You won't have to queue for a bed right next to the pool or jostle for space at the breakfast buffet.

Privacy, seclusion and plenty of space in South Island Villas

While large-scale resorts might have a higher level of service, big spa facilities and the like, there are few sorts of stays that can match the privacy of a villa. They tend to be detached and away from the bustle of a place or designed specifically to create a pocket of serenity where you can unwind with ease. You can often expect to enjoy big lounges with sofas and reading seats, patio areas with space enough for everyone, and poolsides where deckchairs beckon under the rays of the sun. You'll also have a villa totally to yourself, remember. That means loads of extra room to spread out inside, in big bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. And it means you won't have to be up early to compete for the top spot by the side of the pool – it's all yours, so relax.
