The architect of this contemporary villa played with perspectives to increase the sense of indoor-outdoor space in all rooms by extending your line of sight across generous terraces and gardens, viewed seamlessly through floor-to-ceiling windows.
The first floor of Villa Estrella, home to the sleeping areas, includes the 2 main bedrooms, a studio apartment (the ‘Marine Apartment’) with a combined kitchen-lounge and a 2nd bedroom , and the ultra-stylish ’Loft Apartment’ with private terrace with full-width extending awning and 4-person jacuzzi.
The second floor is a vast open-plan kitchen and living space with a panoramic view of the hills, vineyards and of Collioure bay and local coastline. Here, you can be at one with nature even in winter, enjoying the interplay of landscape and sunlight from its warm interior. An extensive terrace (80 square metres / 720 square feet) with cantilevered infinity pool further extends this space. The intense presence of the contemporary fireplace, the sculptured banister that perfectly complements the large boat-shaped table, and the magnificent artwork by leading artist Jean Michel Cierniewski all combine to immerse you in a luxurious and sensual world, one in perfect harmony with the ever-present and ever-changing landscape.
Behind the villa, enjoy the ‘al fresco dining and reclining area’, where you might perhaps take a respite from the heat of summer, or enjoy an evening barbecue, seated beside a beautiful vineyard, and enjoying a fabulous view of Collioure’s hallmark ‘Clocher’, originally a lighthouse and now the bell tower on the magnificent church of St Marie des Anges.
Television with international channels in each of the three living units. Home cinema in the main salon Wi-fi in every room. Outside parking for 3 cars, plus large garage for a 4th car. Protected by the villa's own alarm and access control system.
With its independent entrance, this 45 m² (400 square foot) Loft Apartment is a magical cocoon for your holidays.
Here, from your king-size bed, enjoy a luxurious setting in close contact with sophisticated natural surroundings where you may even awake to the surprise of a pheasant or two in the cactus-lined gardens: this schist rock face, cut away as if it were sculptured, reveals all its mystery at night and echoes the JMC painting in which one's imagination is awoken through cliffs and water…
As elsewhere throughout the Villa Estrella, the seamless design harmony linking interior and exteriorimbues your living area with a dimension extending far beyond that of physical space. A refined moment spent with friends or alone in your jacuzzi in the evening or during the day, with this wonderful rugged hilltop panorama, will remain uniquely memorable.
Your autonomy is assured by a small interior lounge, bathroom, WC and kitchenette area complete with microwave, tabletop fridge, coffee machine and tableware. Also equipped with television, Internet access and air-conditioning. A young child can also enjoy his/her own separate area.
The terrace is sheltered from the sun by a shade system which also adds to your privacy. Its garden furniture also allows you to entertain friends. The outside shower is a delight in the warmer months.
The jacuzzi is permanently maintained by an automated system and by specialist staff. You also have access to a small cleaning robot.
Perfect for a romantic break, the loft can be let independently.
The Marine Apartment offers independent accommodation in its own right. Access is either from just inside the front door of the main villa, via a small hallway leading to its two rooms and bathroom, or directly from outside via patio doors on its largest room.
Designed to accommodate either 1 or 2 couples, or domestic staff, it comprises a living area with fully fitted kitchen recess, a luxury sofa bed (140 cm), bedroom with 2 x 90 cm beds and patio/terrace, and bathroom/ WC with washing machine.
Decorated in a seaside theme, with paintings of Port Vendres and Collioure, it gets the morning sun and features a flower garden with a beautiful shaded terrace.
At certain times of the year, it can be let separately from the rest of the villa.

In keeping with the entire villa, the Art déco and Catalane bedrooms both feature panoramic views; their large floor-to-ceiling windows extend your interior space onto large private terraces, offering shade in the summer, each appointed with comfortable garden furniture.
From your bed, enjoy a relaxing view of the hills and vineyards where you may catch a distant glimpse of Collioure’s attractive Petit Train Touristique.
In these bedrooms, the architect has again succeeded in blending intimacy and space, and we have chosen to reflect this accomplishment in the intimate atmosphere of the Art Déco bedroom by choosing modern artwork that portrays architectural aspects of the stairs.
Personalised touches in these 2 bedrooms will take you on an exotic journey into different atmospheres.
We designed these areas for you to enjoy a restful sense of your own space and privacy, further enhancing your enjoyment of the company of friends at Villa Estrella.
