Situated in the southeast of Sicily, between Modica, Ispica and Rosolini – experience a varied taste of the Italian culture and lifestyle with this luxurious villa as your base. Inside elegant interiors present eclectic designs that combine the old with the new by incorporating antique furniture alongside vibrant art pieces and those all-important modern home comforts. However, as beautiful as the inside of the home may be, we reckon you'll prefer most of your time soaking up the Sicilian sunshine in the garden. With luscious green laws, white stone walls and an abundance of olive trees, the villa embodies a natural oasis of peace and serenity. Whether you choose to lounge around the saltwater pool, in the hammock overlooking the trees, or under the covered terrace featuring a built-in barbecue and outdoor bar or even in the hammock – it's easy to find a quiet spot out here. If you're travelling with little ones, this place is particularly special as not only will they want to make the most of the private pool, but there is also a children's play area that will keep young children occupied for hours. For evenings spent enjoying homecooked meals, there's no better place to dine than at the alfresco dining area, and with a Bluetooth speaker available – rest assured, you can go light on the packing when staying here. When you're ready to explore beyond the realms of this slice of paradise, set off on an adventure to discover the local baroque towns of the Noto Valley, Modica, Ragusa-Ibla, Scicli, and Noto are all less than a thirty-minute drive away. Meanwhile, if the beach is calling you, head to Pozzallo, just a fifteen-minute drive away.
