Feeling above it all is easy at this former fisherman's house in the UNESCO-designated heart of Syracuse. With two living spaces surrounding a rooftop terrace, it was designed for lovers of golden hours, sea breeze and crisp glasses of white.

The sheltered rooftop terrace and pool of this restored 17th-century stone dwelling is a bit of a wonderful anomaly in the area. No wonder it was nominated by Archilovers among the 1,000 best projects in the world.

Bring your bathing suit and enjoy a dip on the sunnier side of things, while taking in the lovely sea views of the Algarve at this strikingly minimalist design villa. Its geometrically composed rooftop is a drone's (and vacationer's) dream.

IMEROVIGLI VILLA, SANTORINI, GREECE

Saying this villa has sea views seems to be putting it mildly: its milky-white rooftop juxtaposed with the sapphire water and caldera views are jaw-dropping reminders of Mother Nature's indelible handiwork.
