Situated beneath the scenic slopes of Mount Etna, with spectacular views of the sea, this villa is in a splendid spot. It’s a fifteen-minute drive from the coastal town of Riposto and nearby beaches, and day trip distance from both Taormina and Catania. Inside the house, it’s bright and comfortable, with three bedrooms that open to a pretty terrace and a triple room that’s handy for families. And outside, the pool and sunny patio are perfectly positioned for admiring the scenery, along with a Jacuzzi that invites you to really relax.

Home truths

  • This home is set over three floors, so you'll need to be able to climb stairs here. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.

  • Air conditioning is only available in the bedrooms.

  • Bedrooms five and six have twin beds which can be pushed together to form a double on request.

  • Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. Free parking is available for up to ten cars, however the access road to the villa is steep and narrow and better suited to smaller vehicles.
