A heated beach-entry pool, built for families

At Villa Capra, the pool is the heart of the holiday. Instead of steps or a ladder, a gentle slope leads you straight in, just like walking into the sea. Toddlers paddle where they can stand, older children swim, and parents finally get to relax by the water.

Walk straight in, no steps. The beach-entry design means there is no edge to climb over and no ladder. Children enter at their own pace in a few centi

metres of water, while you lie back in the shallows with a book.

Safe by design. The maximum depth is 1.40 m across the whole pool, so there is no sudden drop. The pool sits inside the enclosed Mediterranean garden, and the villa’s outdoor security cameras cover only the entrance and parking, never the living or pool areas.

Heated from spring to autumn. The pool is heated, so it stays comfortable to swim in well beyond high summer. At 13 x 5.5 m, there is plenty of room for the whole group.

Everything around the water. Shaded terraces, sun loungers and umbrellas, a gas barbecue and long outdoor dining tables surround the pool, with panoramic views over the Luberon and the Alpilles from sunrise to sunset.
