Nestled away in the Hyblean region of southern Siciliy, this farmhouse was recently treated to a four-year refurbishment that finished in 2021 and this hard work is immediately apparent as you take a tour around the buildings and the grounds. We're full of praise for the way that period features have been retained alongside more contemporary features, which lead to super-sleek kitchens and bathrooms rubbing shoulders quite happily with patches of exposed stonework and wooden ceiling beams overhead. A former stable has been turned into a lavish dining space, while the wine cellar has been kept and filled with local bottles. The very same climate that makes Sicily so propitious for wine production is a pretty sizable reason why people jet over to the island for a sojourn and there are plenty of ways to bask in the sunshine here. The large swimming pool and adjoining Jacuzzi are sure to see plenty of use, as are the barbecue and alfresco...More Details

Nestled halfway between Sicily's south coast and the mountain town of Modica, this villa offers everything you need for a sun-soaked stay. The spacious garden features a large pool and patio, but if you want to cool off, there's a covered terrace – or under one of the many trees on the lawn. The hammock is surely the best spot for an afternoon nap, waking up just in time for a barbecue as the sun goes down. With a garden this big, you won't see much of the interiors, but high ceilings and natural stone walls offer a bit of character. You're in an ideal location for exploring Sicily's natural beauty – the beach at Marina di Modica is ten minutes' drive away, and bikes are provided for more local adventures. *Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay – there's parking available on the premises. *The swimming pool is generally open from 1st April to 31st October, but this is weather dependent...More Details
Indoor-outdoor living finds new meaning in this charming Sicilian villa. Just 200 metres from the turquoise coast, this home invites you to succumb to a slower pace of life, encouraging you to cook, relax, and embrace the natural surroundings. The interior adopts a modern preference for minimalism with its sleek kitchen, cosy living space, and refined bedrooms. It’s a lovely place to seek solace from the mid-day sun, but it's the outdoor space that does the talking. We adore the outdoor kitchen's simple, rustic style that feels intrinsic to the laidback Sicilian lifestyle. You’ll love preparing food as a group to be enjoyed alfresco around the table, or fixing yourself a drink here after spending blissful hours lounging in the sun and taking dips in the pool. The surrounding area of Ispica is quaint, bursting with natural beauty and unique baroque architecture. It’s a delightful place to stroll around, soaking in the culture, before...More Details

Just 3 kilometres from the beach, this modern villa is perfect for a Sicilian getaway. We love this location. Not only is Marina di Ragusa a short drive away, but the other picturesque towns in the Val di Noto are also within easy reach, including Ragusa and Modica. Another thing we love? The roof terrace, where you can soak in the hot tub and admire the sunsets. There's also a private pool that's ideal for afternoon dips. In terms of design, the interior is a bit simple, and the kitchen is pretty small. But overall, it's comfortable, contemporary, and continentally positioned for exploring. *Despite its compact size, the kitchen is well-appointed. Still, we think it's best for lighter bites. *Although this home is all on one level, you'll need to climb a flight of external stairs to reach the roof terrace and hot tub. *If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair upon request. *The swimming pool i...More Details
