About
A private villa, a minute from the sea.
Villa 4 is one of four homes at the Thymus Private Residence in Drymadhes — a quiet stretch of the Albanian Riviera. Three king bedrooms, a plunge pool, and Drymadhes Beach a minute on foot.
A contemporary Mediterranean villa, written into the hillside above Drymadhes.
Few coastlines on the Mediterranean still feel found rather than arranged. The Albanian Riviera is one of them — and Villa 4 is its quiet thesis: local stone, untreated timber, a long line of sea, and a household scaled for six. The architecture stays out of the way so the landscape can do what it came to do.
The villa was designed slowly and quietly — microcement walls, untreated timber, tile floors underfoot. The layout is simple and practical: plenty of room to be together, with enough space to spread out.
Each of the three bedrooms has a king bed, so the home sleeps six comfortably. Three private bathrooms with walk-in showers. A full kitchen, a fireplace and heated floors for cooler nights outside the summer season.
Microcement walls, brushed oak, tile floors inside, a fine pebble surround at the pool. A palette borrowed directly from the hillside: bark, olive, sand, stone.
Black-framed glass to the sea, matte-black fittings throughout. The detailing is restrained on purpose — the view does the heavy lifting.
"A well-placed stay for families or friends who want privacy, outdoor space, and the sea just a short walk away."
Guests have the entire villa to themselves — indoor spaces, plunge pool, veranda, shaded outdoor dining and sun loungers. Drymadhes Beach is one minute on foot.
