The June Boutique Villa

Endless Summer

Whitewashed, cactus-studded, and luxuriously beach club and bohemian, this relaxed designer lodge spreads across a terraced sea view lot in a postcard-perfect medieval village along Spain’s Costa Blanca. Three separate quarters within a maze of palm-lined, sundrenched terraces offer private hideaways within the communal property, creating a laid-back, yet sparkling Mediterranean destination for up to 12 guests.

Earthy sand tones combine with vivid bleached walls at this sparkling villa for rent in Spain, overlooking the Mediterranean. The saying goes that it’s “always June in Benissa,” and this hip retreat offers endless summer vibes and a decidedly laid-back kind of luxury for up to 12 guests—ideal for a group of friends, or workshops and retreats. The Dutch property owners hoped to create a space where a looser kind of luxury prevails, and in the June’s cool organic palette, sweeping sea views, hip landscaped pathways, and the overall barefoot, boutique hotel feeling, they hit their mark.

The villa offers three intimate quarters with private entrances and terraces divided across the property housing five bedrooms, four bathrooms, three kitchens, and two living areas.

The first floor Fustera Apartment features a king-sized bedroom and en-suite bathroom, plus two additional bedrooms outfitted with twin beds that share a second bathroom. Intentionally designed to host a crowd, this apartment covers all the bases with a wide, covered terrace, spacious living and dining room and an easygoing, natural décor palette, plus a fully furnished kitchen.

The ground level Advocat Apartment is a more intimate space—a king-sized, one bedroom nest with an open concept kitchenette/living/dining room and an outdoor sun terrace with a private dining area. Macrame and cool, 1970s naturalist décor give this spot its casual, barefoot boho style.

The June’s showcase accommodation is its luxurious Baladar Suite, a hotel-styled king bedroom/living room suite with an organic, poured concrete bed and side table structure, a more luxuriously furnished private living area, and the possibility of connection to the Advocat apartment to create a full two-bedroom, two-bath accommodation.

Set on a terraced hillside overlooking the Mediterranean, the June Villa offers a maze of sun-splashed pathways leading to five terraces tucked into multiple levels. Sweetly retro, umbrella-shaded lounge decks with cushioned sunbeds give the poolscape an exclusive, beach club vibe. Vibrant built-in sectionals, the gleaming saltwater swimming pool and a breezy, barbecue-equipped outdoor kitchen and dining area for 12 means that every corner of the property offers an enchanting opportunity to soak up the Mediterranean sun.

Around

Located on the coastline of Benissa/Moraira, this villa for rent in Spain overlooks the Mediterranean on one side and the technicolor green valley of La Fustera on the other. The villa sits only 700 meters from Playa La Fustera, a colorful local beach dotted with popular tapas bars that’s an easy walk from the property. The June’s hand-picked guide to the areas’ best eats and drinks includes pop-ups and reservation-only supper clubs in the area and also recreation and touring recommendations.

The medieval town of Benissa is famed for its seductive light and wild natural setting, and it sits just inland from the sea, where hidden bays, coastal trails, and sandy coves and beaches offer a wealth of water-sport options and sailboat, kayak, and SUP hire possibilities. The coastline’s backdrop is rocky and rugged, with sun bleached hiking trails leading to lighthouses and rocky outcrops with panoramic views. Daytrips from include drives to charming seaside villages and historic inland towns.
