For those looking to reconnect with nature, this Sicilian villa is located on the border of the wildlife oasis, Vendicari Nature Reserve. It’s all about escaping the everyday and embracing the vast landscape here – the reserve offers a luscious variety of protected flora and fauna, as well as pristine powdered beaches which are visited by flamingos and loggerhead sea turtles. 

You’ll feel instantly at ease here with an expanse of minimal furnishings and light-filled spaces thanks to the calm colour palette and expanse of windows. There are endless options when it comes to finding a calm spot to unwind – take your pick between the plush living room sofas, the tranquil bedrooms with adjoining balconies, or the cushioned benches that line the breakfast room.

It’s easy to immerse yourself in San Lorenzo’s natural beauty at this home, the entire villa is enveloped in olive trees, flora and palms. The serene outdoor area boasts a freeform swimming pool and plenty of lounging space for both shaded reading and sunbathing. There is also a glass-tabled dining area on the balcony, ideal for enjoying those memorable meals in the balmy evenings overlooking the abundant reserve.

Nestled in between Noto and Marzamemi, you’ll have prime access to the Ionian sea. Spend a day paddling the crystal clear shores of Spiaggia di Cittadella, it’s a four-minute walk away. It’s also worth spending a day in the seaside village of Marzamemi, a fourteen-minute drive away, for its charming seafood tavernas and quaint piazzas – make sure you visit the Church of San Francesco di Paola as you meander through the narrow streets with a gelato in hand.

Amidst the vineyards of southeastern Sicily, this former grape press has been transformed into an idyllic rural retreat. There’s a private swimming pool for blissful swims and a shaded terrace with a barbecue for alfresco dining. The house retains a wonderful sense of character and you’ll find all the home comforts you could need to relax and unwind. We recommend hiring a car to get around here, but it’s just a short drive to the nearest amenities in Pachino, while the baroque city of Noto is also within easy driving distance.

There's a reason many people consider Sicily to be a magical place to visit, and it's homes like this that show you why. Immerse yourself in an Italian paradise at this wonderful villa in the San Lorenzo area of the island. The swimming pool is the focal point of the home here. Whether you're putting on a breakfast pastry spread for the family to dive into on the terrace, or barbequing vegetables in the outside cooking area, you'll love gazing at the pool's turquoise water. We especially like the idea of picking up some local Sicilian cherries and enjoying them in the garden with a view. Life moves slowly here, and that's exactly how we like it! 

The home itself is a mirror of beauty to the turquoise water outside of it. Modern in design and flawless in execution, you'll have a hard time tearing yourself away from this plush pad. But considering the gems waiting to be discovered in Sicily, you're going to have to at times. Why not make the six-minute drive to Marzamemi to explore a picturesque fishing village, or visit one of the area's most beautiful beaches, San Lorenzo? It's only a fifteen-minute walk. We have a funny feeling you're going to like it here.

Flanked with olive trees at the gated entrance, this charming Sicilian residence offers an authentic taste of Italian culture from the get-go. Revealing panoramic views of the famous Vendicari Nature Reserve in the province of Noto, the poetry of the area truly comes to life through the designs and landscaping selected by architect Ivan Gallo. 

Elegant detailing runs throughout the villa and creates a sense of grandeur while remaining harmonious with the vibrancy of the interiors. We particularly love that all of the rooms overlooking the long belvedere terrace also have stunning views out over the rolling vineyards in the distance. 

Offering privacy and ample space, the six bedrooms are spread across both the main house and the pool house. This provides the perfect set-up for in-laws and groups of friends to stay separately if preferred. Meanwhile, the main living areas present several different sociable spaces to relax amidst the stylish design work. Admire the exuberant display of artworks, tasteful choices in wallpaper and an enormous collection of books in the home library – a literature lover's dream. High-quality fixtures and furnishings grant a comfortable stay whether you're based in the main house or the pool house. If you're staying in the pool house, you'll find that it is totally self-contained, with its own kitchen, dining area, lounge, double bedroom and bathroom and even a private rooftop terrace too. 

The outdoor spaces include a large swimming pool and a large roof terrace with a relaxation corner, dining area and barbecue in the main garden area. As well as a rooftop terrace boasting an open-air kitchen and dining area which provides a stunning vantage point for views of the bucolic landscape. Get the grill going and serve up a dreamy Italian spread featuring barbecued meats and fish from the local farmer's market, paired with Italian wine (of course) while you take in the stunning vistas as the sun goes down over the horizon in the distance. Bliss.

Tucked among olive groves in the heart of Val di Noto, this soulful countryside retreat is filled with timeless Sicilian charm. Classic furnishings, sun-drenched courtyards, and a tranquil pool invite slow days and alfresco moments. Wander through orchards, sip aperitifs at golden hour, and let nature set the pace. The interiors are relaxed and characterful – a little worn in places perhaps, but full of warmth and personality. It’s the kind of place that feels instantly familiar. Rustic, beautiful, and deeply restful.

Sun Umbrellas

This villa may not have the biggest or most memorable interiors, but it's ideal for soaking up the sun. The large terrace offers plenty of space to relax, whether on a comfortable sofa, a lounger by the pool, or in the saltwater pool itself. Even better, you're just a short walk from the sandy beach in Reitani. Completing the garden is a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen and dining table for group meals, although the charming restaurants in nearby Marzamemi might tempt you with traditional Sicilian cuisine. To sample more local produce, drive to nearby Pachino, aptly named after Bacchus – the god of wine.

Sicilian Rhapsody

Child Friendly

Tucked in a quiet corner of south-eastern Sicily, this two-bedroom villa makes unwinding feel effortless. Days here are made for lounging by the saltwater pool, dining beneath the pergola, or simply soaking up the sweeping sea views. Inside, the bedrooms are evenly sized and both come with their own ensuite – no squabbling required. With beaches, Syracuse, and the evocative baroque towns of the Val di Noto all just a short drive away, it’s the perfect base for exploring the island.

Summer in Sicily

This incredible villa offers the perfect setting for a special Sicilian getaway. Set in the sun-drenched southeast, it’s just a short stroll from stunning sandy beaches.

Overlooking sparkling blue vistas of the Mediterranean Sea, this waterfront villa invites guests to reconnect with nature, all while indulging in life's luxuries brought to you by the home's high-end amenities. 

Located in the heart of San Lorenzo, you'll be just a four-minute walk away from the nearest beach and residing in one of Sicily's most picturesque beach towns. 

At the villa, an indoor-outdoor living set-up means you can soak up the sunshine (and those views!) in nothing but pure comfort. Whether you're sunbathing out on the panoramic terrace, enjoying a dip in the pool or sipping on a homemade cocktail under the rooftop pergola – it's safe to say the scenery here will leave you awestruck. 

While we reckon you'll most likely spend the majority of your time making the most of the home's exterior – its interior is just as lavish, and you'll find four private suites, each boasting its own bathroom. 


The villa will keep you well connected by car to some of the most beautiful towns of south-eastern Sicily. Don't miss a day trip to Noto, for example – under a thirty-minute drive away. 

Treasure of the Sea 

Indoor Pool

Donning the classic whites and blues of a beach house, this villa in San Lorenzo is a mere three minute stroll away from one of the most beautiful beaches in Sicily, but it has way more to offer than just that. The picture of modern comfort, this home encourages morning lie-ins and refreshing rain showers, first-sip-of-your-coffee moments and alfresco dining, but most importantly it forces the connection between human and nature with a very magnetising outdoor area. The moment you step out onto the patio and see the breathtaking, panoramic views of the Ionian Sea, you’ll not be able to comprehend how it can get any better, but just wait until you take the stairs up onto the sun terrace. From here, coincidentally, you can also hop in the jacuzzi, so our recommendation would be to do just that, with a glass of prosecco in hand, of course, so you watch the sun dip behind the horizon at dusk. 

With a few wineries in the surrounding area, why not go on a tour – you’ll get to each of them in ten minutes or less – and bring back a few of your favourites to enjoy with the Mediterranean feast you’ll prepare on the barbecue? Of course you’ll escape to the beach as often as possible, but the lively fishing village of Marzamemi is utterly charming and reachable by car in eight minutes. 

Sale Mare

Ideally positioned to capture wide-sweeping panoramic views over the Vendicari nature reserve (a five-minute drive away), this stunning villa is a vision of natural beauty, seamlessly bringing the wild beauty of its surrounding landscapes into its own design. 

With expertly landscaped grounds – including a zen-like cactus garden – the home’s outdoors have been designed to match the undulating marshes of the area, while the inviting infinity pool creates a cool blue contrast against the rugged terrain. Spend afternoons lounging on the deck chairs or plunging in the pool. There's also a private air-conditioned gym should you wish to get a workout in. After a day of luxurious relaxation, fun and activities, fire up the barbecue for an alfresco feast and watch the sunset over the reserve from the pergola’s banquet table. 

While you could easily spend all day outside in your home’s garden and pool, step through the antique wood front door to be met with a tranquil blend of traditional and modern Italian design inside the villa. With huge picture windows in the lounge and floor-to-ceiling bookshelves in the living and dining area, you’ve got plenty to keep you entertained inside should the Sicilian sun get too hot. Factor in the gorgeous bedrooms with their private balconies and terraces – ideal for beginning mornings over espressos and enjoying starlit nightcaps – as well as the breathtaking bathrooms decked out in classic Sicilian majolica tiles, and you’ve got everything you need for a perfectly blissful stay. 

When it comes to exploring the local area, drive fifteen minutes to visit Noto and its 18th-century Baroque Cathedral, or head to nearby Calamosche Beach (also fifteen minutes away by car) for a day of sea and sand. 


Nature's Harmony

This charming modern villa enjoys an idyllic setting on the southeastern Sicilian coast. Enjoy the sunshine in the landscaped garden or go for a dip in the saltwater pool. There are several spots for relaxing in the sun and shade – just don't forget the sun cream. Even if you're indoors finishing some last-minute remote work, large windows bring the sunlight in. In the morning, there's nothing better than stepping right out of your bedroom and onto the terrace. Cook up a feast in the outdoor kitchen, and dine alfresco on sasizza and stigghiole. 

This home is the ideal spot for a coastal holiday. Reconnect with nature during your stay between the coastal town of Marzamemi and the beautiful Vendicari Nature Reserve. Jump off rocks into the sea a short way from your doorstep, or walk down to the nearest sandy beach for rest and relaxation.

Calling of the Sea

Tucked away in the southeasternmost corner of Sicily, minutes away from the imposing cliffs that bound the shimmering Mediterranean, this two-bedroom villa awaits its next guests in one of the island’s most gorgeous locales. Modern furnishings and home comforts are make themselves known as soon as you cross the threshold – but this home’s true pièce de résistance is its exterior. A spacious private pool, surrounded by sun loungers and umbrellas, is the undisputed highlight, but don’t overlook the alfresco dining space and cosy nook with its outdoor sofa. When you’re ready to head out, the nearby town of Noto awaits, with its gorgeous baroque architecture and delicious local cuisine ready to dazzle.

Zenith Ridge

Jacuzzi

Moments from the beach, this single-level villa ticks all the boxes when it comes to location. A short drive away is the fishing village of Marzamemi, while Noto and Syracuse are further afield and ideal for day trips. But, with the beach practically on your doorstep and fantastic sea vistas to marvel at back home, you won't have to travel far to experience Sicilian life. There's also a private swimming pool and terrace ideal for alfresco dining, but the real draw is the rooftop, where a bubbling Jacuzzi awaits. The practical interiors could be more impressive – and two guests will sleep on the sofa bed – but the area, views, and sun-kissed outdoor spaces make it a good choice.

Sicilian Queen

This apartment is just a few steps away from the sandy San Lorenzo beach near Marzamemi town The highlights of Eastern Sicily – Noto, Modica and Syracuse – are all an easy drive away. The decor in the open living, kitchen and dining room is simple and functional because days here were meant to be spent outside in the Sicilian sun. Soak up the rays on a lounger on deck, sip chilled Grillo on the shaded terrace and embrace the island’s rustic cooking style at the wood-fired barbecue. 

Moon & Stars

This modern-style villa is situated in a prime seafront position near the popular San Lorenzo beach. It’s close to the Nature Reserve of Vendicari and many restaurants too, while the Baroque towns of Syracuse, Ragusa and Noto are just a short drive away. Along with the great location, another highlight here is the beautiful sea views which you can enjoy from the pool, patio and roof terrace. You can admire the vistas from inside too, and we love that all the bedrooms open out onto a terrace or balcony.

The Dreamer's View

Set back from Marzamemi’s stunning shores, this charming villa with a minimal interior makes for an idyllic home. Surrounded by Ionian sea views and a luscious lawn, this home is perfectly situated so that you can make the most of your coastal environment as well as access the nearby beaches, a short drive away.

As soon as you arrive you will feel instantly at ease as you settle into the contemporary living space – we love the modern take on traditional tiling, the blue accents and patterned walls. Wake up in your own oasis – each bedroom is engulfed in tranquillity with large windows inviting the sea breeze in. The stylish living space opens out to a terrace overlooking the coastline for prime panoramas - it’s bliss.

Spend afternoons poolside, soaking up the sun on the sleek loungers or on the balcony with your new book and Ionian sea vistas. There’s a sleek kitchen should you fancy preparing a Mediterannean feast for your loved ones. Gather together on the outdoor dining patio, with a bottle of Nero d’Avola and the sunset to accompany you. 

Drive five minutes for an afternoon at San Lorenzo’s beach, the waters are shallow and crystal clear, then settle into one of the local seafront tavernas for a selection of seafood. When you’re ready, head home for a stargazing session on your rooftop terrace –  it’s the perfect way to end a day in paradise.

A Mirage on Marzamemi

San Lorenzo has long had a reputation for its fine sandy beaches, and this home is in a prime position to make the most of them. Situated right in the heart of San Lorenzo's sandy stretch, you'll only have to walk 100m to get to the beautiful blue Meditteranean sea – making life much easier for families needing to keep the children entertained. Spend afternoons building sandcastles in the sun while waiting for the tide to come in and challenge your handy work. Then, head back to the villa to enjoy the home. 

It really is a wonderful space the whole family will find joy in. Sleek, modern and practical, you'll get all the pleasures of a traditional family holiday with the luxury of feeling like you're in a Meditteranean paradise. Watch the kids splash around in the pool while you and your loved one spend time together gazing out at the shimmering ocean. We especially think you'll love having romantic cocktail hours on the master bedroom's rooftop terrace. Pour an Aperol Spritz and watch the colour of the sky change as the sun sets.

When you're looking to go further afield and explore the delights of this southern tip of Sicily, you'll be glad to know the lively, picturesque fishing village of Marzamemi is only a short drive away. This will be a great place to take the family for evenings out sampling authentic Sicilian cuisine while watching the fishing boats come in and out of the port.

Sandcastles in The Sun

A stone's throw from Agua Beach, this villa is situated in a seafront complex near sandy bars and eateries. The close proximity to the neighbouring homes may not suit private types but if you’re staying as a larger group, all three properties can be rented together. The outdoor living space promises peaceful views, a private pool, and relaxing seating spots, though one of the bedrooms can only be accessed from the terrace. Along the coast, you'll find the beautiful Nature Reserve of Vendicari. Or the baroque towns of Noto and Ragusa offer rewarding road trips.

Pine Trees & Palms

Decorated in colour and deceptively large, you'll fall in love with this outdoor space the moment you see it. The expert layout means it packs a huge punch into the compact area – find a cosy pool, dining table under a pergola, cushioned seats and a cute garden patch with sun beds. 

The idyllic space is drenched in high-end amenities, and that's not even the best part. Every inch of the area showcases spectacular views of the rugged coastline melting into the Mediterranean Sea. It's one of the prettiest views in Sicily, and it belongs all to you. 

If you do drag yourself out of the outdoor area, you'll find the bright colours continue indoors. Intricate patterns and light tones decorate the walls, tinging the homespun living space with touches of character.

Once you've settled into the modern luxury of the home, set your sights on the natural beauty in the south-east of Sicily. San Lorenzo is home to one of the island's most beautiful beaches, and it's just a minute's walk from the villa. Further along the coast, you'll find charming towns such as Noto and Syracuse.



Reeling it In

Fenced Property

A wonderful stay awaits you at this peaceful property, located just a short stroll from a sandy beach and just 800 metres from the centre of Marzememi. Boasting modern interior design and plenty of space for the four of you to stretch out and relax, it’s the ideal home-from-home for holidays spent exploring the coast of Sicily. This contemporary villa also features some luxurious touches that are rare to find in smaller homes, such as the stunning private pool and fabulous outdoor kitchen, which mean you can spend lots of time outside in the Sicilian sunshine.

We recommend you spend sunny mornings out on your alfresco dining table, tucking into a delicious Italian breakfast of churros and coffee while you discuss the daily itinerary. As the heat rises, cool off with a dip in your sparkling swimming pool, before retiring to a sun lounger for a lovely rest with a good book. Take the short walk over to the beach for sea swimming and sunbathing, or visit a nearby restaurant to find delicious pasta and pizza. Then as the evening rolls in, cook up a feast in your alfresco kitchen area and pop a bottle of Prosecco so you can toast to your dreamy getaway.


Raspberry Lemonade

Sound System

Positioned on the rocky and rugged Sicilian coast in the vibrant seaside resort of San Lorenzo, this stunning villa boasts breathtaking vistas from its rooftop terrace. Gaze out over the glistening azure waters of the Mediterranean from the hot tub, stretch out on a sun lounger by the inviting pool, or sink into one of the outdoor sofas with a good book.

French doors fling open to reveal a clean and contemporary interior that's elevated by a nautical theme that runs throughout, with blue hues, patterned wallpapered and eye-catching artwork to break up the pristine white walls.

It is just a short walk from the nearest beach, where you'll find a selection of beach bars and restaurants that'll entice you out of the heat of the summer sun. Elsewhere, the picturesque fishing village of Marzamemi is just a few kilometres south. Here, colourful boats bob in the harbour, and narrow maze-like streets call out to be explored.

Casa Pigna

Located near Sicily's southern tip, this home boasts stunning views of the Mediterranean coast and a sleek minimalist interior. With ample outdoor space, it's ideal for small groups of friends seeking a reunion. Gather for pizza in the al fresco dining area, where you'll be met by sunbeams filtering through the rattan roof. Later, admire the sunset from the rooftop terrace with an Italian cocktail as the waves gently crash nearby.

For a change of scenery, visit the seaside town of Scoglitti, where you can sample fresh local seafood at one of its many restaurants. For a full-day adventure, we recommend taking a boat excursion to the Aeolian Islands, a volcanic archipelago known for its beautiful landscapes, black sand beaches, and hot springs.

The End of Sicily

Wine Cooler

Wine Cellar

Sitting on the edge of the Mediterranean, this beautiful home welcomes guests to experience an authentic stay in Sicily. Overflowing with fresh sea air, there’s a quality of vitality that uplifts this space and makes it feel truly restorative. 

Ideal for a group and families, the open-plan living area is perfect for relaxing and socialising, while the beautiful wooden table makes the perfect spot for dining together. Enjoy laid back Italian living by the swimming pool or on the rooftop terrace. Wherever you are in this home, the sea views create a sense of tranquillity. 

Stepping outside, you’ll find the island’s most beautiful beaches are only a short walk away, alongside all the amenities you could need for a fulfilling stay. Mingle with locals on San Lorenzo beach - only a thirteen-minute walk. For a day of exploring we suggest winding your way through the cobbled streets of Marzamemi. This charming fishing village has a wonderful selection of restaurants, bars and shops, plus it's only a seven-minute drive away. 

Some of the island's oldest towns and villages can be found in this region. Immerse yourself in the rich history of Sicily and explore the baroque town of the Val di Noto, or visit the ancient ruins in Syracuse - a forty-four-minute drive. Nature lovers will find themselves drawn to the stunning landscape and hiking trails of Vendicari Nature Reserve - a seventeen-minute drive away. 

After a day of breathtaking views and sea-side fun, you’ll love coming home to relax on the terrace, light the barbecue and watch the sunset over the horizon. 

Haven Of Helios

Just minutes from the nearest sandy beach, this villa boasts views of the Ionian sea, its own private pool, and two terraces. With some small steps up to the pool and main terrace, it may not be suitable for all guests with limited mobility. But the flexible sleeping arrangement and provided cot and high chair mean it's great for families or friend groups travelling together.  We recommend hiring a car for visiting Marzamemi and the Taormina nature reserve, as well as popular Sicilian spots like Noto.

The Royal Cottage

Boasting scenic sea views from the private terrace, this coastal spot invites guests to enjoy Sicily the right way. And that means within close proximity of its turquoise shores, all while being just a short drive from its Baroque towns, including Noto and Ragusa. The villa also features a private swimming pool with a hydro-massage corner and a Mediterranean garden. On the roof, there is a private jacuzzi with a covered terrace and sun loungers perfectly placed before the stunning views. Inside, modern designs centre around comfort and practicality, ensuring a fuss-free stay in paradise. 


Queen of The Hills

Dreaming of pool days, al fresco lunches, and Sicilian skies? This villa ticks all the right boxes for a serene stay in a scenic spot. We love the far-reaching views from the patio and pool – an uninterrupted vista of green countryside and sea-blue horizon that’s the perfect backdrop for switching off. The restful theme continues inside, where modern Mediterranean interiors set the scene for relaxation. There’s plenty of space to make yourself comfy across the four en-suite bedrooms, making this a great home for a group getaway or big family trip. And with beautiful beaches and charming towns within easy day-trip distance, it’s ideal if you want to explore more of this idyllic island.

Summer Love

Imagine lying by the pool breathing in the bewitching aroma of fresh lavender, listening to the sea rush to shore. Perhaps you’ll have a cold glass of Sicilian lemonade next to you, and you’ll be looking forward to a night of stargazing from the rooftop terrace. Holidays don’t get better than at this idyllic home in Sicily. 

The villa can be found just 100 metres from the seashore in South East Sicily. The pretty fishing village of Marzamemi is just a five-minute drive away, and the beautiful Vendicari Nature Reserve is seven minutes away. This is an ideal base from which to enjoy and explore all that this part of Sicily has to offer.

Eat breakfast on the covered terrace, enjoying the view of the gardens and pool, and beyond to the sea. We’d follow this with a dip in the beautiful pool, or by wandering down to the beach. Our favourite beach, San Lorenzo, is a nineteen-minute walk, or you can nip there in two minutes in the car. Spend the afternoon in Marzamemi, where you can stroll along the cobbled streets and treat yourself to some fresh seafood for lunch – there’s no shortage of picture-perfect eateries along the attractive harbour. 

You have a tough decision to make in the evening – do you watch the sunset from the roof terrace or from the hot tub in the pool? Wherever you choose to enjoy it, make sure you do so with a glass of local wine. Absolute bliss. 


Fiore Viola

With the pretty village of Marzamemi as its neighbour, this home is ideally positioned for a refreshing coastal escape. You’ll be welcomed by uninterrupted sea views, a private pool and two terraces. The nearest sandy beach is just 300 metres away, but you will need a car to get to local amenities. Your host can help arrange car rentals, which will also come in handy if you’re looking to adventure further afield and explore the majestic towns of Syracuse, Ragusa and Noto. 


Calm by the Shore

This home is comprised of two villas, making it ideal for large groups or a few families travelling together. The sandy beach is just a few steps away, so you can enjoy sea views from beside the private pool and the rooftop terrace. The pool even has a hydromassage feature in the corner, and there’s a Jacuzzi – this is a great home for relaxing. The baroque town of Noto is just a short drive away, so there's plenty to keep you enterained. 

Chasing the Carnival

Made up of two neighbouring villas with separate outdoor areas, kitchens and living spaces, this is an ideal choice for families who want to enjoy a break together but still have their own space. Both homes offer sweeping sea views and a private pool, perfect for soaking up the Sicilian sun, and the beach is just a short stroll away. Our pick of the outdoor spots though is the rooftop terrace of the first villa – complete with Jacuzzi, it’s a sun worshippers paradise. 

Sicilian Breeze

This Sicilian villa is all about the views. Located in the heart of the Val di Noto, you can admire the surrounding countryside from indoors and out – whether you’re lounging by the pool or preparing a mountain of pasta in the kitchen. We love the extras here, like the hydromassage feature in the swimming pool and the pool table tucked away on the lower level. Because of its remote spot, we suggest hiring a car to explore the surrounding area – make sure you add the Baroque city of Noto and the ancient ruins at Syracuse to your must-see list.

Villa Dolce Vita

This stunning home tucked away on Southern Italy’s coastline offers a perfect slice of Sicilian paradise. With the beach on your doorstep, listen to the soothing waves while sunbathing on the rooftop terrace or by your private swimming pool. Behind its cute garden and iconic facade, you’ll find a big, open area which makes communal living a breeze. From its living spaces, each bedroom is uniquely designed with meticulous attention to detail. While it’s hard to pinpoint exactly which one is our favourite, we’re particular fans of the clever spiral bookshelf, swirly lamps, vibrant, intricate wallpaper, quirky mirrors and just about every other piece that gives this home its distinctive character. 

If you do manage to tear yourself away, head on out to the historic city of Syracuse, just ten minutes away by car, to sample local delicacies and sumptuous Sicilian wines, and shop for souvenirs of your time on this spectacular island. We highly recommend sampling some of the local seafood at one of the nearby restaurants, which is out of this world. With more to see than one getaway could fit in, we are sure you will never want to leave the island.



Casa Isola

You're not seeing double. This home is made up of two neighbouring villas on the same estate. You'll have two of everything here – two private pools (though only one of these is open all year round), two gardens, and two rooftop terraces with sea views where you can watch the sunset. We think it's excellent for separate families or large friend groups craving independent spaces. You'll want a car here, as the baroque towns of Syracuse, Ragusa and Noto are within driving distance. Meanwhile, beach days are at your fingertips with the nearest sandy shore just 300 metres away.

Sunsets Over The Bay

Step-Free Access

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. 

Ionian Breeze

Perched on the edge of San Lorenzo beach, this Mediterranean-inspired home invites you to experience a rejuvenating stay on the Sicilian coast. 

With panoramic views across the horizon, the owners have sensitively styled this villa to reflect and celebrate the abundant beauty of its surroundings. 

Bathed in natural light, the interiors provide a calming sanctuary – the perfect setting for socialising, relaxing and enjoying the laid-back pace of coastal living. Make your way upstairs and you’ll find the rooftop terrace is perfectly poised to bring the ultimate state of relaxation. Featuring a jacuzzi with a shaded seating area, this is a wonderful spot to begin your day with a quiet morning coffee or later with golden-hour drinks. 

Back downstairs, the space opens up onto a serene garden, barbecue area and swimming pool. And with direct access to one of the island’s most beautiful beaches, there’s everything you could need for a fulfilling stay. 

Days can be spent without agenda or exploring the spectacular towns of Val di Noto. The majestic streets of historic Noto are just a thirty-minute drive away, while the crystal clear waters of the Vendicari nature reserve are a twenty-minute drive away.

The Lilac Sea

Located in the heart of the Val di Noto, this contemporary hideaway offers peace, privacy and beautiful views. Outside, you can spend leisurely days by the swimming pool. There are also two terraces and a barbecue – making it easy to savour the sweetness of Italian living. Families will appreciate the games room and the open-plan living space. Plus, children’s amenities can be arranged on request and well-behaved pets are welcome with prior approval from the host. You will need to bring your own essentials, but it’s just a 5-kilometre drive to the nearest amenities in Rosolini, while the nearest beaches are just 15 kilometres away. 

Moon of Peace

They say good things come in threes, and these villas won't disappoint. Great for multiple families or large friend groups, this trio of homes are right by the Ionian Sea. You'll have your pick of rooftop terraces to watch the sunset and private pools to splash about in (though it's worth noting that not all the pools are open throughout the year). We recommend hiring a car here if you're hoping to pay a visit to Noto or Marzamemi or spots like Mount Etna or the Vendicari nature reserve.

In the heart of Val di Noto, surrounded by ancient olive trees, this luxurious villa combines minimalist design with homely touches. Boasting a private infinity pool, start the day with an invigorating swim – the pool is half-covered by a loggia bar if you're in need of a refreshment. If you're an early riser, make a coffee and take a seat on the terrace to watch the sun come up over the Sicilian landscape. 

With access to a resort just a short stroll away, you can spend your days in the spa, practising your serve on the tennis court or playing volleyball on the beach. If you're keen to soak up some local culture, however, Noto city is a short drive away, where you can immerse yourself in exquisite architecture, wander around grand palaces and taste delicious Italian food. 

Speaking of food, you'll have your own outdoor kitchen here, which is ideal when you're craving a home-cooked dinner at the end of a busy day. Pick up some ingredients in town, or some seafood from the local fishing village, and try your hand at whipping up regional dishes. Dine alfresco under the pergola. Post-dinner, pour yourself a glass of wine and watch the sun go down on a perfect day.
