From island life in Greece or Jamaica, to costal dreamscapes in Brazil or California, there is something deeply serene about gazing over open water.

Endless cerulean horizons, constant soothing breezes, and the rushing of water; a life by the sea is undeniably therapeutic. Whether on a mountaintop overlooking the ocean, tucked away in a jungle near a beach, or having the sea one dive away from your deck, being near water energy is the living dream.

We hope you enjoy our top picks for luxurious modern homes on coastlines across the world!
