Situated in southern Sicily, this villa suits a family or a group of friends wanting to spend their days in the sunshine. There is a private saltwater pool for splashing about when the temperature rises and a covered terrace for dining on Sicilian delicacies. While there is a no-nonsense approach to the interiors, you have everything you need to feel right at home. We recommend hiring a car if you’d like to explore – Sampieri Beach is only a short drive away.
