A cluster of former fishermen's cottages perched above the southern Sicilian coast, this villa sits where the Mediterranean and Ionian seas meet – and you feel it. The clifftop platform lets you dive straight into clear water from the rocks, while a panoramic terrace above the garden is built for long, relaxing evenings under the stars. Each cottage has its own shaded terrace and en-suite bathroom, so the layout is perfect groups who want company and privacy in equal measure. Porto Ulisse beach is just minutes away, with Ispica's historic centre a fifteen-minute drive.
