If you’re looking for views, you’ve come to the right place. This contemporary villa is based on the most beautiful stretch of south-eastern Sicily’s coast, with iconic vistas over the sea and Mount Etna. Large windows frame the panorama perfectly and flood the living space with natural light.

Days will be spent toing and froing to the sea rocks, watching steam escape from fumaroles on the distant Vulcano Island and lounging by your shimmering pool.

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.

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
