Location
This villa is close to some of Sicily’s most popular beaches, including the stunning Cava d’Aliga beach (5 minutes drive), but it is also near the baroque jewel of Scicli (15 minutes), so guests can enjoy the best that Sicily has to offer. Scicli is not only an architectural treasure, it also has an excellent weekly market (Tuesdays) in Via Saffi. Here visitors can buy the best local produce.

The regional capital is the better-known town of Ragusa (45 minutes). Ragusa, like Scicli, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is famous for its baroque palaces and winding lanes. It is well worth a day trip to explore the churches and the many fine restaurants. Wednesday is market day, so take time to drop into the football stadium to pick up some excellent ingredients. The town also hosts a prestigious music competition and festival every July.

There are many festivals throughout the year in Scicli, but the two most famous are “Uomo Vivo” (Man Alive) at Easter – a procession which finishes at the beach of Donnalucata and the Madonna Al Cavallo, at the end of May, to celebrate the town’s defeat of the Saracens.

The medieval fishing village of Donnalucata (15 minute drive) is known for its wide beaches and two festivals, the festival of squid and the flavours festival, both encourage visitors the enjoy delicious local delicacies.

Catania’s international airport is a 1-hour 35-minute drive from the villa. Please note that the pool is open from the 1st of April 2024 to the 31st of October 2024
