Breathtaking panoramic views of the Ionian Sea await you at this three-storey villa in Letojanni. Embodying the essence of Sicilian living, this home offers multiple outdoor terraces where you can savour chef-prepared meals (just speak to your host to arrange) and sip locally-produced wine. The pool (which can be heated via solar panels) and sun-bathing area provide the perfect setting to soak up the Mediterranean sun, while the modern and breezy interior is a welcome retreat. Though reaching the villa requires navigating a steep road, the unparalleled vistas make it all worthwhile.
