There’s no doubt this countryside villa oozes Italian charm with its traditional dry stone façade and evocative rural surroundings. Located next to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ragusa, and twenty minutes from the Mediterranean Sea, this home provides easy access to the region’s significant cultural sites and enticing coastal views. There’s perfect harmony between the outside and inside here - combining authentic character and contemporary comfort - you’ll feel instantly at home. 

This restored and converted home has perfectly preserved its original rustic simplicity. Step inside and be instantly embraced by its traditional charm – we love the authentic details, period stonework, fireplaces and beamed ceilings making it feel like an indulgent Italian sanctuary. Each space has been individually considered so that the historical features are synchronised with design-focused materials – think raw metal and sleek glass accents that make you and your guests feel part of this home’s unique landscape. Spend indulgent days soaking up the sun by the pool before cooling off in the sparkling waters. There’s an inspirational feeling to adopt in this home –  get in touch with your creative side in the art studio, or try out an Italian classic in the rustic kitchen. Delight in the day’s highlights and share special moments with your group over an intimate dinner in the artistic dining room.

If you want to get out and explore, beeline for Ragusa to admire the Duomo di San Giorgio and Baroque buildings, before heading to Giardino Ibleo park for sweeping views across the city.  

The Artist's Stone Studio

Contemporary living meets Sicilian charm in this traditional home. Located in the historic area of Ortigia, you'll be surrounded by ancient streets contrasting this stylishly modern apartment. Decorated with warm tones reminiscent of the colours of the desert, this is an ideal home for a romantic getaway with your loved one. Start your day by flinging open the window shutters in the bedroom and enjoying cornettis and fresh orange juice in bed, and end the day by indulging in a glass of moscato wine on the romantic outdoor balcony area. This home is made by love for those who are in love.

The Ortigia area you'll be located in is just as romantic to explore considering it is steeped in history as part of Syracuse. Wander the streets on your doorstep and discover picturesque squares to while away time in, or take a short walk down to Cala Rossa beach to marvel at stunning azure waters. A picnic here will be an afternoon well spent. Make sure to sample the local granitas during your stay here – they're something special.




Colours of The Desert

Nestled in the seaside village of Donnalucata, just 1.5 kilometres from the beach, this villa makes it easy to slip straight into holiday mode. The interiors pair rustic touches – exposed brick walls, wooden beams and gilded mirrors – with contemporary furnishings. Bedrooms are split between the main villa and a self-contained annexe with its own kitchenette, ideal for couples or families wanting a little extra space. Outside, the pool sits within landscape gardens, with a feasting table on the terrace for leisurely alfresco meals. Fancy a day trip? The baroque beauty of Modica is only 10 kilometres away.

Rustic Sicily

Surrounded by farmland and olive trees in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed region of Val di Noto, this nineteenth-century villa is as Sicilian as it comes. The honey-coloured stone building is a thing of beauty and is full of pleasant surprises, from terraces with sumptuous views and pretty coloured tiles in the bathroom to a traditional fireplace. Many of the walls are painted a cooling shade of white and there's also a pair of minimalist four-poster beds to squabble over. Outside is where you'll find the real showstopper, though — a temptingly blue swimming pool surrounded by a stone wall, loungers and a pagoda for escaping the sunshine. Keep wandering around the grounds and you'll come across a vegetable garden, aromatic plants and a cute courtyard ideal for long lunches. When you're in the mood for days out, the historic town of Ragusa lies twenty-five minutes away in the car, while it's possible to get to the beach at Marina di Ragusa in under twenty. Your host can also arrange weddings for up to eighty people upon request in the ancient warehouse or Mediterranean garden facing the olive orchard. 

When Life Gives You Lemons

Located on the outskirts of Modica, this honey-hued stone villa pairs a prime location with resort-style amenities. Spend carefree days stretched out by the saltwater swimming pool or unwind in wellness area, which features a sunken hot tub and cave hewn into the rocks with a mini waterfall. The villa itself overlooks rugged, rolling countryside, and is just five minutes from restaurants, shops and historic sites, while a twenty-five minute drive will bring you to the crystal-clear waters of Marina di Modica. 

Modica Cave Retreat

Perched with an original stone façade, this traditional-style villa blends seamlessly with the surrounding Sicilian countryside – offering a blissfully quintessential Italian experience when staying here. While the exterior gives off the old-world charm, the interior brags modern designs centred around comfort and practicality while nodding to its classic Italian roots . Exposed stone walls and tiled floors keep the temperature cool here, even during Sicily's warmest months; meanwhile, the exterior courtyard and pool terrace areas allow guests to bask in the sunshine until their hearts are content. 

With five uniquely styled bedroom suites alongside impressive stone bathrooms providing a spa-like experience, everyone in the group can benefit from their own privacy. In addition, one of the bedrooms is placed in a separate annexe with an art studio – a dream come true for budding artists. After all, amid the Baroque architecture and dreamy Mediterranean landscapes – inspiration can be found everywhere here. 

When it's time to venture out of your private, luxurious residence, an abundance of fun awaits your discovery. Don't miss the white-washed Donnafugata Castle nearby. And, of course, it goes without saying that taking full advantage of your proximity to the Baroque city of Ragusa is an absolute must-see. Wander around its UNESCO World Heritage Site sloping streets – filled with pretty piazzas, delightful restaurants and charming boutiques. If finding your calm by the sea is on the agenda, you'll have the choice between Marina di Ragusa, Santa Maria dei Foccale or Pozzalo beaches. 



The Baroque Pearl 

Surrounded by the idyllic Sicilian countryside, this peaceful villa is only a three-kilometre drive from the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Modica – a Baroque city famed for its chocolate-making past. Amid historic streets, this cultural hotspot is packed with museums and attractions. A stone's throw away, we also recommend touring the ancient archaeological area of ​​Cava d'Ispica, where mountainside caves and burial sites await.

Open the gates and enter this beautiful home, where you'll wake up beneath wood-beamed ceilings and wander into your bright kitchen for coffee. Indulge your sweet tooth and enjoy a local breakfast out on the veranda, while you make plans for the day ahead. After a fun-filled outing, escape the afternoon sun and go tech-free indoors, as you teach your kids how to play chess. As the evening closes in, why not swim lengths in your private pool? Then, fire up the barbecue for a sunset supper as you sip a glass of Italian wine.

La Danza

You'll find this utterly charming villa in Marina di Modica, a picture-pretty seaside resort. Located in the south of Sicily, you can expect beautiful bays, sandy beaches and golden dunes – the perfect seaside escape. 

Boasting a patio complete with outdoor kitchen, swinging egg chairs and sofas you can't help but sink into, this home is ideal for soaking up the sunshine. Spend your mornings sipping coffee and swimming in the private pool, before heading out to see what the local area has to offer. 

Watersports are popular in the summer, which is when the town really comes to life, and the coastline is dotted with ice-cream parlours, restaurants and shops. Swim and sunbathe on the beach then grab a sweet treat to cool down. Buy some local seafood on the way home then head back to that gorgeous patio to cook an alfresco feast on the barbecue. 

The Sicily Seaside

Immersed in lush countryside, a valley of carob trees, and a ten-minute drive from the beach, this rustic stone villa has a spectacular setting capturing the beauty of rural south-eastern Sicily. The home has every feature of contemporary comfort, but its atmosphere remains as authentic as you can get. Blue, white, and striped decor variations create a muted nautical theme – a subtle nod to the nearby coast. Start your day with an espresso on the balcony looking out over the valley. Tuck yourself away in one of the garden's shady spots with a classic novel, or soak up the Mediterranean sun by the pool. Why not spend an evening with a bottle of nero d'Avola under the stars? This variety of wine is local after all. You can easily explore the incredible landscape around this villa – head to the golden beach of Playa Grande or drive along country lanes and winding hills to the baroque towns of Modica and Scicli. Don't forget to pick up some farm-fresh produce on the way back, for a true taste of Sicily.

Axis Mundi

Situated in the southeast of Sicily, just a sixteen-minute drive from the Baroque hilltop town of Ragusa, this home provides a beautifully equipped base for families. It's delightfully peaceful, surrounded by gloriously green countryside for as far as the eye can see. Here, you're thirty minutes from the towns of Modica and Scicli and just twenty minutes from the splendid beaches of Punta Secca and Marina di Ragusa by car.

The interior is spacious and contemporary. With its open-plan layout, lofty beam-clad ceilings and large windows ushering in floods of sunlight, the living space creates a free-flowing ambience primed for relaxation. There are all the bells and whistles here for a want-for-nothing stay, including a fully equipped kitchen and spacious dining table for mealtimes with your clan. We especially love the outdoor space, framed by a beautifully landscaped garden and offering sweeping vistas across the Ragusa countryside. Here, a swimming pool takes centre stage, offering a glistening oasis from the Sicilian sun. Between adventures, lounge poolside or fire up the barbecue and dine alfresco on the shaded terrace.

Emerald Myth

Right in the middle of the historic town of Modica, famous for its hillside baroque buildings and artisan chocolate, this apartment makes the most of its space and its placement. Bold colours, stylish decor and modern furnishings are all present here, making it a remarkably characterful space to wind down. The best part, though, has got to be the patio, where you can drink your morning coffee or sip a glass of wine at sunset while taking in the spectacular views of Modica all around.

Baroque Vista

Absolutely surrounded by a pedigree garden, native foliage, and stunning panoramic views of the natural landscape and the ocean beyond, this home in the beautiful Val Di Noto – of which the baroque cities are a UNESCO World Heritage – is the epitome of understated luxury. It’s in the barest of touches that this home shines. The fireplace, for one, where the glass panelling allows a hint of the outside to make itself known even when you’re relaxing indoors. You’ll also find that from the indoor jacuzzi, you get another glimpse of the outdoors through a large, square window, and those nuances make all the difference in the feel of this home. 

Then there’s the landscaped garden and the precise way in which it all comes together, and the gorgeous views from the infinity pool, the inviting comfort of the outdoor furniture, and the wonderful mix of elegance and cosiness in the furniture. This home says relax, renew, restore, but do it in style, and we love that. 

If you manage to tear yourself away – because honestly, simply having a cup of coffee out on the balcony will feel special here – then hike at Conca Del Salto, a four-minute drive away, where you’ll come across a gorgeous waterfall. There’s also a pizzeria a nine-minute walk away, and a couple of bars ten minutes, or less, away by car.
