Apsley Travel · Bespoke Luxury Travel
There is nothing like a private villa for a family, a milestone celebration or a small group of friends. The right house, with the right view, with staff who anticipate before they're asked — and a chef who cooks the way you eat at home, only better. Our villa portfolio spans Tuscany and the Amalfi Coast, the south of France and the Côte d'Azur, Mykonos and the Peloponnese, St Barths and Mustique, Mauritius, Bali and Phuket. Every villa we recommend has been visited by a member of our team, with verified staff, dependable Wi-Fi, and the small infrastructure (boat, drivers, masseuse on-call) that turns a beautiful house into a great holiday. We arrange everything around the villa: provisioning, restaurant bookings, private boat days, helicopter day trips, in-villa wellness and excursions with private guides.

For a small group or family, villas typically work out at very similar — sometimes lower — per-person cost than hotel suites, with the bonus of a private chef, pool and full staff.
We work primarily with fully staffed villas — chef, housekeeping and driver as standard. Self-catering villas are available where preferred.
Yes. We brief chefs in advance on cuisine preferences, dietary requirements and favourite dishes. Many villas allow you to book Michelin-starred chefs for selected dinners.
9–12 months for July–August Mediterranean and Caribbean Christmas/New Year. 4–6 months for shoulder season.
Absolutely — and we routinely combine villa weeks with skippered yacht charter days, particularly in the Mediterranean and Caribbean.
