Our Summer Vacation Technically we were working, so it wasn't exactly a vacation, but we did enjoy traveling to some fantastic European and Caribbean destinations this summer so that we can better help you plan your next vacation!

Sit back and enjoy reading our favorite memories from our trips, and then take a look at the gorgeous villas we visited along the way.

We visited these four destinations and hope you will too.

Barbados Bethany, Doug & Michael C

"The beautiful churches that represent each individual parish makes you think how much good there is in this crazy world of ours.

The calm white sandy beaches beckon for a leisurely swim – without the interruption of a cell phone.

Flying fish dinners, chicken roti, a cold rum punch, put everything together and it's a combination for a perfect vacation!"

Italy Barbara P, Glennie, & Liz

"I now understand why Umbria has been called Tuscany's "gentler sister" and has recently emerged from the shadow of its very famous neighbor.

Time and time again we found ourselves "rendered speechless" by the beauty and splendor of the countryside."

St. Barts Ellie, Doug, & Stefanie

"There is always a natural moment that stands out on every trip to St Barts. This time it was the 6 or so tarpon, each 4' in length, attracted to the light beaming from the Eden Rock Hotel, they just circled in the water and sea birds kept swooping down - maybe the tarpon were feeding and the birds were picking up scraps. Their eyes glowed from the light – pretty amazing."

Villa SIB CEL
Flamands

4br, 4ba, Pool
Welcome Home! "We all enjoyed our stay at CEL - the location was so convenient and the villa was very comfortable. The newly enlarged deck area around the pool is terrific and soon there will be all new living room furnishings! This is a great villa for families or couples."

Greece Suzanne, Barbara B, & Ellie

"We drove into Mykonos town and stumbled upon a wonderful square by a church with various outdoor tavernas. I was in love with the town. Greek music was playing and it was the perfect temperature Mykonos town is like walking into a candy store! Everything that you could possibly want is there. There are beautiful whitewashed buildings with brightly colored geraniums, blue, red, and yellow shutters and doors, and whitewashed steps leading through town, right down to the harbor."

Villa LIV NEP
Mykonos

4br, 4ba, Pool
Our villa for the week! "All on one level, this villa has a big pool, ample terrace, and wonderful view. As the week progressed we realized what a great location these units are in - easy access to town, beach, cafés, restaurants and stores."
Villa LIV IVI
Santorini

2br, 2ba, Pool
"This is a fantastic 2 bedroom with a Jacuzzi in the courtyard. It's tucked in Megalohori, a charming traditional village with narrow streets lined with white washed houses, churches, and little gardens."
Villa LIV AGR

4br, 3ba, Pool
"Loved It! Just a sweetheart of a house – private, nicely decorated, new pool, great BBQ area, and close to Agrari beach and a taverna."
