The Royal Cottage

Just minutes from the nearest sandy beach, this villa boasts views of the Ionian sea, its own private pool, and two terraces. With some small steps up to the pool and main terrace, it may not be suitable for all guests with limited mobility. But the flexible sleeping arrangement and provided cot and high chair mean it's great for families or friend groups travelling together. We recommend hiring a car for visiting Marzamemi and the Taormina nature reserve, as well as popular Sicilian spots like Noto.

Home truths:
*Not all bedrooms are photographed, but we expect style and consistency throughout this home.
*There is space to park outside this home for free. We recommend hiring a car to make the most of your stay.
*Your host can provide a free cot and high chair if you're travelling with little ones.
*Three bedrooms and bathrooms are on the ground floor, but there is a single step onto the terrace and another onto the deck where the pool is, so guests with reduced mobility should keep this in mind.
*The two single beds can be pushed together to make a double, if needed. The upstairs bedroom is accessed externally, and bed linens and towels are both provided and changed weekly.
*There are mosquito nets in the bedrooms and living room.
