At the edge of a nature reserve, in a picturesque Sicilian village, right on the sea – this villa has it all. Ocean breeze scents the air with salt and rustles through the whitewashed archways framing the house. There is no better way to start the day than sipping a coffee on the balcony overlooking the Mediterranean, perhaps after running twenty metres down to the beach and plunging in the water. The house is designed in a laid back Italian style – terrazzo floors, wicker chairs, and an earthy colour palette. There are three bathrooms, and the main bedroom has an en suite, so everyone has their space. 

Known for its Baroque architecture, the beautiful town of Noto is a UNESCO world heritage site and can be reached in thirteen minutes by car. Along the shoreline from the villa there are seafront restaurants, bars, and sandy beaches to explore. The breathtaking Vendicari nature reserve is a twenty-four minute drive away, a paradise for birdwatching, where you’ll find hiking trails, pristine beaches, and blooming native plant life. After a day of exploring, fire up the barbecue and whip up some cocktails as you watch the sunset from your balcony.

Whether you’re a family or a small group of friends, this villa provides a bright and convenient base on Sicily’s west coast. While there’s no pool to cool off in from the midday sun here, there’s a small sandy beach just 20m from the villa, where you can swim the Ionian waters. The style here is a little eclectic, though we think you’ll spend most of your time dining on the balcony overlooking the waves or soaking up the sun in your private garden. When you’re ready to explore further afield, you’ll find Noto, its Baroque architecture and local restaurants within a short drive.

To put it simply, this place is a sight for sore eyes, but when you cast a glimpse at the crystalline private pool, that’s the moment you’ll fall in love.

Surrounded by cushioned sun loungers and yet another dining spot, when temperatures soar, make a beeline for its refreshing depths for an instant cool–down. A few lengths later, you might just have worked up an appetite – in which case, the fully–equipped kitchen has got you covered.

As the old saying goes, the kitchen is the heart of the home, and in this case, it really does feel that way.

There’s a dining table in here, too, but we’d bet our bottom dollar you’ll eat al fresco almost every single time.

With all it has to offer, you’ll never tire of this place – but if you’re craving a reconnect with civilisation, that’s no problem at all.

Curated with a unique eye for design, the social spaces set a striking impression and make those intimate moments feel even more special.

The outside space is just as impressive, thanks to its immense landscape and panoramic views. Plunge into the pristine pool, then stretch out on the plush loungers and let the sun soak up the droplets on your skin. The rooftop terrace is a real highlight of the outdoor space – spend nights under the glow of the sunset with an alfresco dinner fresh off the barbeque, before sharing a few Aperol spritzes, soundtracked to your summer playlist.

Noto's Oasis

Sicily is a hub of wonderful things to see and do, so you might find you are out and about more than you are in on this vacation, but returning here after a busy day exploring will always feel like a treat. 

Each and every room is just as charming as the next, but if we had to pinpoint the ultimate piece de resistance in this home, it would have to be the balcony. Fully furnished with chairs, a flurry of luscious plants and an open–air dining setup, be sure to retreat to this private paradise every day to contemplate the change from sunlight to starlight. With an Aperol Spritz in hand and lots of tasty Italian nibbles to munch on, you couldn’t wish for a more idyllic situation to be in.

Thanks to its central location, this home puts you in the perfect position to explore Sicily on foot. Stroll for no more than a minute or two and you’ll stumble upon a bevy of bars, restaurants, shops and, for those with a sweet tooth, ice cream parlours! Be sure to traverse the city’s magical baroque alleys and for those moments when nothing but a sea view will do, head to the beautiful beaches of Noto Marina, Marzamemi, San Lorenzo and the Vendicari Reserve.

My Heart is in Sicily

If you’re seeking a stylish spot for a Sicilian stay, this apartment doesn't disappoint. Your host owns four apartments in this building, so the photos can guide your expectations, though each is similar in style. There are communal outdoor areas to enjoy, so you can make the most of downtime and drinks alfresco. The kitchen is on the minimal side, so you’ll only be able to prepare simpler dishes – that said, you’ll want to maximise your time out sampling the local cuisine. And when you’re ready to explore, you’ve got Noto Cathedral, Baroque landmarks and gelaterias on your doorstep.

Noto Oasis

Soak in the sublime views from your hillside apartment, overlooking the vast Sicilian countryside. With a mix of private and shared outdoor space, there’s plenty of opportunity to let the hours blissfully roll by while savouring the scenery. Whether you’re enjoying a morning coffee on your balcony, lounging by the shared pool, or toasting to a magical sunset at dusk from your terrace, everything is just that bit more special from up here.

You can start your day with some yoga on your terrace, or head down the steps to the hydro massagers in the pool for ultimate relaxation. When the afternoon rolls around, you’ll love a refreshing gin & tonic garnished with Sicily’s famous citrus fruits. 

When talk turns to dinner, your kitchen is perfectly equipped to whip up your specialty for a candlelit dinner at home. Or hop in a taxi to Noto for an evening in the baroque city, walking hand-in-hand while marvelling at the architecture, before settling into a traditional restaurant for Sicilian cuisine. 

Chasing Bliss

From here, it’s just a 5 kilometre drive to the nearest beach, while the Baroque town of Noto is just 1 kilometre away. 

Eternal Calm

Sitting on the shores of Lido di Noto, this contemporary sanctuary opens its doors to a refreshing coastal stay. From here, it’s just 30 metres to the nearest (small) beach, while Scogliera Bianca is just 200 metres away. You can also spend lazy days relaxing in the garden and swimming in the private pool. Inside, the rooms are simple, minimal and family-friendly with children’s amenities available on request. It’s worth noting most of the rooms are accessed from the outside. Plus, the first-floor apartment is accessed via external stairs and also includes a small kitchen – making this a great option for groups looking to stretch out and spend quality time together. 

Goddess of the Dawn

With Lido Scogliera Bianca beach quite literally on your doorstep and sea views stretching for miles, this home makes for a relaxing coastal retreat. Unfussy on the inside, it’s suitable for families of all ages due to its single-storey nature. With direct beach access, much time will be spent soaking up the rays from the sand. Still, for trips further afield, nearby Vendicari Nature Reserve, Portopalo di Capo Passero and the baroque towns of Syracuse, Modica, Scicli and Ragus Ibla are all worth a visit.  

The Seagrass

Wheelchair Access

There are more than a few reasons why this Sicilian villa ticks our boxes. The interiors might not be the most modern or refined, but the outdoor areas are pretty idyllic. Each bedroom has direct access to the outdoor space, where you’ll find a pool, a lavender garden, lemon groves and a dining and lounging area. There’s plenty of room for you and your guests, while the bedrooms also offer flexible sleeping arrangements – just ask your host in advance.

Outside, the shaded terrace is the perfect place to catch up over a barbecue feast or unwind with a cold drink in hand. After soaking up the endless ocean vistas from a lounger, slip on your flip-flops and walk just 200 metres to Scogliera Bianca Beach. Culture vultures should head inland to Noto, not only for its baroque architecture and 18th-century Cathedral but to enjoy traditional cannoli in a long-standing café on a bustling street corner.  

Sea Breeze & Sunshine

With two swimming pools and views across the unspoilt countryside to the Ionian Sea, this villa has relaxation at its forefront. Multiple terraces provide shaded spots for when you want to escape the sunshine, and there’s a barbecue for alfresco feasting. Just so you know, the home's two floors are connected by an external staircase. Ready to explore?

Sicilian Nirvana

Looking out at that view from the (unfenced) rooftop terrace, there’s is no doubt you’re in the heart of historic Noto. Shambling rooftops lead to the crowning dome of Noto Cathedral, showing off just how central you are. Down a set of stairs, you’ll find an enclosed terrace for meals outside and glass doors leading to the solarium-style sitting room. The rooftop view from the breakfast table in the dine-in kitchen is just as impressive. Each main bedroom is bright and spacious, and the mezzanine bedroom has its own sitting room, but if you’re packing this place to capacity, two people will be in a box room with no windows.

Sicilian Baroque

Mosquito Net

Moments from the historic heart of Noto, this apartment provides the ideal base for a Sicilian adventure. You can stroll to iconic sights such as Santa Maria di Gesù and Piazza Mazzini, while the close proximity to restaurants and cafes means you won’t have to go far to enjoy incredible Italian cooking.

And for a day at the beach, Lido di Noto is just over 5 kilometres away.

Sicilian Trellis

Located a short drive from the Baroque town of Noto, this sleek, minimalist apartment is designed with a couple or solo traveller in mind. The open-plan living space sees the sun all day, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows – it’s the perfect place to sip a cup of coffee in the mornings before stepping out onto the balcony for an alfresco breakfast. 

Afternoons are for leisurely swims in the communal infinity pool followed by a snooze on a lounger. If you fancy a change of surroundings, hop in the car and head over Noto Beach for a stroll along the golden sands. Culture buffs should head north to Syracuse for the Archaeological Park of the Neapolis, the ancient Teatro Greco and the atmospheric island of Ortygia. After a bite to eat in a traditional restaurant, return home for a glass of Nero d'Avola by starlight.

Return to Me

Olive trees, modern comforts, and a safari tent filled with a billiards, foosball and ping pong table – this isn’t your average countryside retreat. The sleek, single-storey villa mixes refined interiors with a lush garden bursting with Mediterranean herbs and a fabulous pool (complete with hydromassage corner). There’s space to sprawl indoors, shade to dine under on the veranda, and a piano for impressing your guests. Located just a short drive from Noto and Sicily’s other baroque villages, this is a base for poolside lounging and cultural gallivanting in equal measure. 

Oh, The Island's Whisper

Hidden among the olive trees of Syracuse, this home caught our eye with its seafront location and peaceful garden. It’s also a great base from which to explore the most stunning spots of the region – the Baroque cities of Syracuse and Noto are a short drive away, while the beaches of Avola and Fontane Bianche are also within easy reach. You will need a car here, but your host can help organise car rentals along with a range of excursions. And while the rooms are basic, we think most of your time will be spent outside, admiring the views from the jacuzzi. 

The Garden of Life

Perched on a Sicilian hillside, you’re treated to wonderful countryside views from your sleek apartment. Whether you’re soaking up the scenery from the comfort of your own terrace and heading down to the pool for a dip, you’ll be captivated by the rolling hills and far-stretching seascape.

You’ll love mornings here – plenty of floor-to-ceiling windows mean natural light floods the apartment, beckoning you outside for a coffee in the sun. Perhaps a spot of yoga on your terrace is how you’ll want to start your day, or a dip in the shared pool to kickstart your senses. You can even sink into the pool’s hydromassage seats for ultimate relaxation. When the afternoon rolls around, it’s the perfect time for a gin & tonic on your terrace, garnished with Sicily’s famously good citrus fruit, while playing a light-hearted card game. 

Watching the sunset from your terrace is not to be missed – nothing beats watching the sun dip behind the hills, melting away in the sea. Come dinnertime, your kitchen is well-equipped for whipping up your specialty dish to be enjoyed around the dining table. But if you don’t feel like cooking, you can always head to the nearby city of Noto. Famous for its baroque architecture, it’s a wonderful place to walk around hand-in-hand, admiring the romantic scenery, before finding a local Sicilian spot for a traditional dinner.
