About this property

CLIFF HOUSE - Capo Vaticano

Perched on a high cliff at the tip of Capo Vaticano, this unique property is located in a gated compound where nature has been preserved from the over-construction that plagues much of the Italian coast. Years of care and meticulous landscape design have transformed this cliff into a green haven, from which to enjoy breath-taking views of the Mediterranean, and the Aeolian Islands. The volcano of Stromboli, directly west on the horizon, is the protagonist of some of the most spectacular sunsets you will ever see.

The compound enjoys a private access to the beach below, but the addition of a nine-foot/ten-inch by 50-foot/ten-inch (three metres by 15.5 metres) pool has greatly enhanced the enjoyability of this very exclusive villa.

The property consists of a main house with kichen and living areas, master bedroom and second bedroom, each with en-suite bathroom, and two guest houses, separate from the main house, each with a bedroom and a bathroom.

Incredible stay at this gem

Incredible property perched above some of the most ruggedly beautiful coastline and blue water you’ll ever see. The host was very helpful and responsive, and the staff were wonderful. We had a great time with our family, hiking down to the beach, exploring the surrounding area, and watching sunset from the awe-inspiring front patio. The pool was awesome as well. The place is tucked back in a very charming gated community. We had an amazing two weeks, thank you, Alessandra!

Paradise in Calabria

A remarkable place with a fascinating history and breathtaking views. Staff were lovely. House very comfortable and the photos do not do it justice. Beach and the sea = a dream. Here's a tip if you are there over mid-August holidays: head down to the sea early morning, return before holiday boats arrive around 0930 and sun gets on the cliff OR opt for early evening after 1730. Excellent for snorkelling too. We hope to return.

Simply amazing

Can’t say enough about the beauty of this villa. We had an amazing trip with our family. Capo Vatican Is a charming village and we also enjoyed a day trip to Tropea. We walked down the the beach every day which was lovely and exercise enough for the day! Hope to go back soon.

Een fantastisch mooie plek

Deze woning ligt op een fantastisch mooie plek. De woning voldoet aan alle wensen en het uitzicht is adembenemend. Inchecken en contact tussentijds is goed geregeld en vragen worden snel beantwoord. Thuis laten koken door Phillip is een echte aanrader. Naast dat hij erg lekker kookt, is het ook nog eens een zeer aardige man die niet om een praatje verlegen zit. Het strandje beneden is heerlijk en de trap er naar toe is even een uitdaging, maar is goed te doen met een aantal rustpauzes. De directe omgeving is niet veel bijzonders (buiten kleine supermarkt en pizza's) maar op een half uurtje rijden is er van alles te doen. Kortom: een heerlijke vakantie op een zeer bijzondere plek.

About the host

Why they chose this property

My husband started vacationing in this area in the early 1970's and grew attached to its breath-taking beauty, rich history, and unspoiled nature. Much has changed in the area since then, but within our enclave we were able to maintain the original character of the landscape, making this spot a truly special place on the Italian coast. Being so far South, the house is very enjoyable throughout the year. We don't consider this just a beach house- it's a wonderful getaway where in mid-January you can already enjoy seeing blooming almond trees and wild flowers.

What makes this property unique

The most unique aspect of this house is certainly its dramatic siting. On the Mediterranean, usually when you see buildings sited like ours, they are either lighthouses, Moorish towers, or religious buildings. A private residence perched on a cliff, and in a place that still offers it complete privacy and seclusion is not easy to find. Our closest neighbors are two families of hawks, and they are extremely discerning creatures...
