Vista Alegre is a collection of sea view homes located outside of Es Cubells, near Porroig. It’s super secure, as they’re mostly hidden behind gates. It’s apparently called a “billionaires’ playground,” per the Sun, and some of the more expensive villa options cost more than $24,400 for a one week stay, and that’s not even including the homes that are exclusively “price upon request.” And even if you’re going for the least costly option, it’s still a big splurge at over $3,880 a week for three-bedroom, two-bathroom retreat.
The pricier options include the newly built Villa Moon, which has four bedrooms, seven bathrooms and a large private pool, with picture-perfect sea views. The two-story home is an indoor-outdoor layout, with lots of room for al fresco dining and designer-decorated rooms.
Then there’s Sa Calma, which the Sun reports goes for $145,647 a week and has been rented by the likes of Paul McCartney. The three-story villa comes with a house manager, chef and use of a Range Rover.

The Sussexes headed back to Frogmore after their weeklong getaway, but they weren’t at Windsor for long—the family jetted off to Nice, via a private plane paid for by Elton John, for another summer getaway at the famed musician’s villa in the South of France.
