Five European homes, five different countries, one running theme: a pool worth building a summer around. Today's lineup runs from the Algarve to Mallorca, with the price tags splitting cleanly across three tiers — a pair under €1 million, a pair between €1 million and €2 million, and one showpiece north of €2 million.

A Heated Pool in the Algarve
€600,000 — Almancil, Algarve, Portugal. Three bedrooms and two baths fill out 162 square meters here, set on a 600-square-meter plot with a private heated pool that works year-round — a rarity at this price point in the Algarve.

A Cliffside Infinity Pool on Rhodes
€600,000 — Lindos, Rhodes, Dodecanese Islands, Greece. The pool above is the whole pitch: a cliffside infinity edge with an uninterrupted sea view, wrapped around a 3-bed, 3-bath home at 147 square meters.

A Panoramic Pool on the Agrigento Coast
€1,200,000 — Contrada Coda Finocchio, Menfi, Agrigento, Sicily, Italy. Four bedrooms (the listing doesn't break out square footage) sit above a panoramic pool on the Agrigento coast, with sea and vineyard views stretching in both directions.

A Renovated Provençal Villa in Var
€1,300,000 — La Motte, Var, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France. A five-bedroom, two-bath Provençal villa, fully renovated in 2021, built around an infinity pool that all but disappears into the surrounding hills — 238 square meters of living space in all.

A Garden Pool Retreat in Mallorca
€2,100,000 — Bunyola, Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain. The priciest home in today's five, and the one with the most land to go with it: a 500-square-meter garden wraps a roughly 20-square-meter pool outside a 3-bed, 3-bath home built out to about 184.8 square meters.
