This stunning home tucked away on Southern Italy’s coastline offers a perfect slice of Sicilian paradise. With the beach on your doorstep, listen to the soothing waves while sunbathing on the rooftop terrace or by your private swimming pool. Behind its cute garden and iconic facade, you’ll find a big, open area which makes communal living a breeze. From its living spaces, each bedroom is uniquely designed with meticulous attention to detail. While it’s hard to pinpoint exactly which one is our favourite, we’re particular fans of the clever spiral bookshelf, swirly lamps, vibrant, intricate wallpaper, quirky mirrors and just about every other piece that gives this home its distinctive character. If you do manage to tear yourself away, head on out to the historic city of Syracuse, just ten minutes away by car, to sample local delicacies and sumptuous Sicilian wines, and shop for souvenirs of your time on this spectacular island. We highly recommend sampling some of the local seafood at one of the nearby restaurants, which is out of this world. With more to see than one getaway could fit in, we are sure you will never want to leave the island.
