Chic and contemporary, this home has tranquillity running through its core. Made up of the main villa and a separate annexe, we think it’s perfect for larger groups who like to holiday together yet still appreciate some privacy from time to time. Outdoors, sea views, a private pool and a sun-drenched garden await – and the shaded pergola is just the ticket when you fancy an alfresco meal. Location-wise, it’s a short drive to the beaches of Calamosche, San Lorenzo and Fontane Bianche, or you can spend your days exploring the baroque towns of Noto and Syracuse.
