3 Villas for a Perfect Quarantine

by Geoffrey Ravoire, Marketing Manager & Luxury Travel Advisor

Social distancing doesn’t have to happen in your home. Kids are on spring break or in online school, and you are working remotely. Why not move your family to a safe, new destination where you can do exactly the same (limit social interactions) while still enjoying the great outdoors, or at least changing the view from your window.

Here are 3 domestic locations where outdoor activities are plentiful (from sports fishing to biking) and homes are dreamy and available.

Malibu, CA

1 hour from Los Angeles.

4 bedrooms.

This newly built beachfront home in the northernmost area of Malibu boasts a very private beach and is perfect for isolating! The interiors are elegant and gracious, and the views from the decks are fantastic. What we love most about this house is the spacious rooftop deck with fireplace, barbecue, and sound system. If you get tired of the beach, you can try going up in the canyons for a lovely walk.

Miami Beach, FL

30 minutes from Miami airport.

6 bedrooms.

This stunning contemporary waterfront home with sunset views is the ultimate Miami Vice home. This Florida getaway boasts a built-in bar, movie theater with leather recliners, gym, outdoor kitchen, and a private dock to go explore the bay by yacht. You won’t want to leave the heated infinity-edge lap pool and its hot tub with fire pit… except maybe to take in the 360 views from the generous rooftop lounge.

Watch Hill, RI

2 hours from Boston. 3 hours from NYC. 50 minutes from Providence airport.

8 bedrooms.

Wickiup (which means “Hut”), is a registered historic home in the Watch Hill Fire District built in 1890. Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and completely restored throughout, this turn-of-the-century home is located within a quick walk of the Ocean House beach and exhibits wonderful architectural details such as an outdoor shower and a patio completed with a large grill. Wickiup is perfect for a large family, or for two families to share.
