With a private pool, bright traditional living space and a spectacular view of the surrounding landscape, this Sicilian villa ticks all the boxes for a coastal retreat.

Everything about this stone and wood villa exudes Sicilian luxury – from the vast garden to the rustic interiors, bursting with vintage details. Start the day by greeting the sunrise over the Mediterranean with a few leisurely laps in the pool, then enjoy sipping your coffee on the sun-drenched terrace overlooking Mount Etna. You have all day long to stroll the beach, explore the harbour and the local museums, or take a drive along the coastline and pick up some seafood from the fishing villages. In the evening, grill freshly caught octopus and prawns on the wood-fired barbecue, and gather the whole party for dinner under the stars on the breezy veranda. Later you can retreat inside and cosy up by the fireplace or play a few tunes on the piano. If you're lucky enough to snag the master bedroom then you can soak in your own hot tub with a nightcap – trust us, with so much to do, your fellow guests won’t mind if you retreat to your own li...More Details
This villa is all about the views. Perched on Sicily’s east coast, it looks out over the Ionian Sea, with Mount Etna rising in the distance. Days are spent padding between the pool, shaded terraces, and sun-drenched loungers. Inside, it’s all cool marble floors, clean lines, and a kitchen made for long, lazy meals – whether you’re perched at the breakfast bar or gathered around the table. Taormina is just 7km away, but here you’ll enjoy the same cinematic backdrop without the crowds. And when the beach calls? It’s only 4km from your door. *Cleaning is included here for four hours every other day. Towels and linen will also be changed midweek. *If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free.

This villa on the south coastline of Sicily sits as close to the Ionian Sea as it's possible to get without the water lapping against your bed every morning. It's a wonderfully picturesque spot, but what's perhaps most impressive is the villa's long list of amenities that will prise your attention away from this peaceful vista. Given the island's fruitful climate, it won't come as a surprise to learn that many of these can be found outside. There's something for every mood out here, whether you want to play in the swimming pool, relax in the Jacuzzi or feast yourselves silly on the pergola's alfresco dining table – all with the unmistakable sound and scent of the sea to keep you company. When you finally have to head inside, we're sure that you'll like what you see. The interior design mixes rustic features, such as patches of exposed stonework and the villa's old wine press, with more contemporary flashes – the minimalist kitchen and...More Details
This bright apartment has a private terrace with lovely views of Isola Bella. There’s also a shared swimming pool to enjoy in the verdant grounds. Inside, we’d say the interiors lack a bit of character and personality, but with so much to explore nearby, you’ll probably be out and about more. Visit nearby Mount Etna and the Alcantara canyons, or just 2 kilometres away, you’ll find the hilltop town of Taormina, with its Greco-Roman theatre or spend the day on the beach closeby (1.5 kilometres away). *The entrance, pool and grounds are shared (the swimming pool is only available for use between 1st April and 31st October). *Guests three and four would be on a sofa bed in the living room. *The decor is very simple and generic – we've made an exception to let this one into the collection on account of its great location near Taormina. *Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay (there's parking...More Details
