Just moments from the sandy shores of Fontane Bianche in the south of Sicily, this gorgeous villa is a haven of Italian hospitality and relaxation. The undisputed highlight is its sunny exterior, complete with a private saltwater pool with a hydro-massage corner and shaded pergola, as well as a shaded outdoor table and bar seating to boot. This sets the stage for long, lazy days cooking on the barbecue with a cocktail in hand. Inside, the bright living area is made for comfort, and the fully-equipped kitchen is a definite bonus too. Venture out to experience the shops, restaurants, and the beach within walking distance, plus day trips to Noto, Modica, and local nature reserves nearby.
