Luxury villa for short rent Sicily: Magic at your feet
An ancient oil mill at the foot of Europe´s highest volcano, Mount Etna, tucked away in a breathtaking setting that will captivate all your senses: rosemary, lavender, lemongrass, citrus groves, roses and palms surround this charming rose-colored luxury villa and its two outbuildings, overlooking breathtaking views. Let your gaze run to the sea, breathe in the unmistakable scent of the Mediterranean countryside. Quiet, secluded, yet only 30 minutes from the spectacular and fascinating Taormina, with its international audience, renowned beaches, music and art events, boutiques and nightclubs, this elegant property offers five bedrooms, four bathrooms, living areas, relaxation nooks and a wonderful garden with a circular infinity pool and an original Argentine barbecue that promises fun outdoor evenings. It also features a half basketball court and shared access to an adjacent tennis court.
The layout of the property is charming and delightful, perfect for sharing special moments with family and friends while maintaining one´s privacy. A shaded patio with lounge area greets you upon arrival and leads to an open kitchen with exposed beams, separated by a few steps from a sitting area with sofas and TV. Climb a few more steps to a large, bright living room with a fireplace, in a colorful and comfortable atmosphere. Terracotta floors, wrought-iron beds, white walls decorated by the paintings of Valentina Granata, a local artist in love with the volcano, the blue of the sea, the green of nature peeking out from every window: everything conspires to give guests a unique feeling of freedom and poetry, inviting them to a Sicilian lifestyle, simple and authentic.
Sicily is a treasure chest of treasures all to be discovered for an unforgettable vacation! Countless adventures and surprises await you. Where lava meets the sea you will find vibrant coastlines with deep green and dark blue waters. Refreshing swims and a perfect tan are guaranteed! If, on the other hand, you´re looking for some cool weather, even in August, take your loved ones on an amazing and memorable adventure! Climb to the top of the volcano to walk among the craters in a surreal moonscape. From up there you can see Sicily at your feet, and on clear days even the Aeolian Islands. Moreover, you won´t be far fromCatania, the mosaics of Piazza Armerina, the famous cathedral of Noto, the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento: art, history and nature will surprise you everywhere in Sicily! And let´s not talk about the food... In the evening we can book you a table in one of the best seafood restaurants on the coast, or let you discover a quick dinner in Scillichenti with a bite of the famous “pane cunzato,“ to understand how simple and genuine ingredients like tomatoes, oil and cheese... can become poetry! Or even go to Zafferana Etnea, where “Aunt Peppina“ still makes the best fried pizzettas ever! Dancing in Taormina can be the right after-dinner, followed perhaps by a night swim under the stars at Isolabella. The problem is...Sicilian nights do not invite sleep. Rather, they invite you to experience them, savoring their scents and lights until dawn, then welcoming a new day with an almond granita and coffee and a warm brioche...
