If you’ve been craving a slice of island life, this villa in Salina may be just the ticket. Full of character, it blends Aeolian architecture with Sicilian style along with a dash of bohemian flair – each bedroom is named and styled after a different muse, for example. A short walk takes you to the centre of Malfa, home to a vibrant mix of restaurants and bars, while Spiaggia dello Scario – a beach famed for its striking rock formations and crystal-clear waters that are perfect for snorkelling – is only a short distance away.
