Commissioned in 1740 under the Spanish Bourbons, Castillo del Príncipe — named for the son of King Charles III — is a rare horseshoe-shaped coastal fortress restored into a nine-bedroom retreat overlooking Galicia’s rugged Costa da Morte.

An under-the-radar corner of the Riviera, with sea access and a footpath to a fishermen’s cove that still feels untouched.

Best known for his work on the French Riviera, American architect Barry Dierks left behind one Italian masterpiece: a 1920s modernist villa with a private bay on the Ligurian coast.

Nestled in the Côte Fleurie, this estate offers a prime location near Trouville and Deauville, glamorous coastal retreats just two hours from Paris.

This beautifully restored villa offers an immersive experience in Favignana with direct access to the sea and a yellow sand beach, with an amphitheater-shaped breakwater creating a natural pool. 

The renovated former stronghold is set in a commanding position within a protected 22-acre estate, accessed by following the path that leads to the historic lighthouse of Capo Grosso on the northern tip of the island.

The coastal home is tucked away in the seaside resort of Theoule-sur-Mer, an idyllic French Riviera town located between Cannes and St. Tropez.

One of the most exclusive properties on the Italian Riviera, this Ligurian castello offers 360° views from its hilltop positioning on the Portofino promontory, set high above the Bay of Paraggi.

The 32 acre coastal compound is located in Saint George in Maine’s storied mid-coast and offers 1,843 feet of ocean frontage with a deep water dock.
