Coastal Destinations
Exceptional places shaped by the sea, chosen for how they allow you to live, stay and explore.
Different Ways to Live the Coast
Explore coastal places shaped by light, landscape and a distinct way of living by the sea. From tropical forest meeting the Pacific in Costa Rica and the quieter coastlines of Crete to yacht journeys along Croatia’s Dalmatian Riviera, villa stays on the Amalfi Coast and the Atlantic-facing beauty of Cape Town.
Costa Rica
Tropical forest, Pacific shores and space to experience nature together
Costa Rica offers a coastal experience shaped as much by the landscape as by the sea. Along the North Pacific, tropical forest reaches toward sheltered bays, while days can move naturally between boating, wildlife, outdoor exploration and quieter time beside the water.
Peninsula Papagayo combines this sense of nature with an unusually easy arrival and a more private, fully hosted way of staying. It is particularly well suited to families and multigenerational groups who want adventure to remain close at hand without allowing it to dictate every day.
CVAY’s Costa Rica collection begins with Villa Avellana, an exceptional beachfront estate where private hospitality, generous shared spaces and direct access to the Pacific come together.
Crete, Greece
The Mediterranean island where slower living, warm hospitality, and extraordinary coastlines still shape daily life.
Crete offers a very different experience from the faster rhythm often associated with Mediterranean travel. Along quieter coastlines and mountain villages, life still unfolds close to the sea, shaped by long lunches, hidden beaches, and a remarkable sense of openness and warmth.
From dramatic southern landscapes to exceptional private villas overlooking the Libyan Sea, Crete rewards travelers looking for a more grounded and emotionally connected way to experience the Mediterranean.

Dalmatian Riviera, Croatia
Island-hopping, clear water, and a coastline made for life at sea
Croatia’s Dalmatian Riviera offers one of the most natural yacht charter landscapes in Europe. Short cruising distances, historic harbor towns, and protected bays create a rhythm that feels both easy and rich in variation.
Days move between lively waterfronts and quiet anchorages. One afternoon may lead to a long lunch ashore; the next to swimming in complete stillness. It is a destination that balances movement and calm — without ever feeling complicated.
Amalfi Coast, Italy
Cliffside villages, layered views, and stays defined by atmosphere
The Amalfi Coast is often recognized instantly, yet its real character reveals itself more quietly. Terraced gardens, winding paths, and villas set into the cliffs create a setting that feels both dramatic and deeply livable.
Time here is shaped by small rituals — mornings overlooking the sea, afternoons that stretch into evening, and spaces that invite you to stay longer than planned. It is less about movement, and more about presence.
Cape Town, South Africa
Atlantic light, open space, and a setting shaped by contrast
Cape Town offers a different kind of coastal experience — more expansive, more elemental, and defined by its connection to both ocean and mountain. The Atlantic brings clarity and movement, while the landscape creates a strong sense of space.
Villa Issima Hillside House reflects this beautifully. Elevated above the coastline, it offers a perspective that feels calm, private, and deeply connected to its surroundings.
