This stunning retreat is where sea views, Mediterranean gardens and refined design come together. The villa blends indoor comfort with dreamy outdoor living, from the sleek infinity pool to the sun-drenched terrace. Mornings begin with breakfast under the pergola and end with sunset aperitivi overlooking the coast. Inside, you'll find light-filled spaces designed for relaxing and socialising, plus a separate self-contained guest annex. The sizable property also contains another villa. However, with your own pool, terraces and private garden, you'll still enjoy complete tranquillity. We'd recommend hiring a car to get around, but with a stay this special, it's more than worth it.

About Val di Noto
Encompassing the south-eastern third of Sicily, Val di Noto is one of the three historic regions of the island.
