This early 20th-century villa, reborn in 2023 with a contemporary flair, seamlessly marries Art Deco roots with modern sophistication, creating a haven for discerning travellers.

Upon entering, guests are greeted by a spacious, artfully designed interior that radiates contemporary elegance. The villa boasts six beautifully appointed bedrooms, each offering a unique blend of comfort and style, ensuring restful nights for up to 12 guests. Expect velvety soft bedding complemented by worldly curiosities on the walls and luxe flooring underfoot.

The heart of the villa is its expansive living area, adorned with original artworks and state-of-the-art furnishings. With its large windows and open design, this space invites natural light to dance across the surfaces, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. The fully equipped, ultra-modern kitchen is a culinary artist's dream, ideal for preparing gourmet meals or enjoying a casual breakfast with stunning views.

The villa's exterior is nothing short of breathtaking. The centrepiece is the 25-meter panoramic infinity pool, offering a refreshing escape with mesmerising views of the Mediterranean Sea and the ancient city of Siracusa, with Mount Etna looming majestically in the distance. The covered al-fresco area with a fabulous sea view includes a BBQ, an outdoor kitchen, a dining table seating 12 and a lounge with an open fireplace. The generous terraces around the pool provide ample space for sunbathing, aperitifs, or dining under the magical Sicilian sunset. 

The villa's privileged location grants direct access to a protected marine and nature reserve, and a short walk leads to secluded beaches with pristine waters, great for swimming or sunbathing. Nature enthusiasts will delight in the walking trails that meander through the reserve, offering a chance to explore Sicily's natural beauty.

When you can't wait to soak up Sicily's old-worldly atmosphere, head to Syracuse, which happens to be the closest city. Walk around its cobbled alleyways and honey-hued buildings, many dating back to the Roman times. It will be your getaway to Italian culture and full of restaurants, cafes and exciting landmarks.

Villa Syracusia is more than a holiday villa; it's a luxurious escape into a world where art, nature, and comfort converge, creating an unforgettable experience in the heart of Sicily.

Perched on a serene peninsula on the east coast of Sicily, Villa Syracusia boasts a 180-degree panorama of the Mediterranean Sea, the ancient city of Syracuse, and the majestic Etna volcano on clear days.

Sicily, a Mediterranean jewel, is a land where history, culture, and natural beauty converge to create a tapestry of unforgettable experiences. From the ancient streets of Syracuse to the Baroque elegance of Modica and Ragusa, each city is a chapter in Sicily's rich narrative.

Sicily's coastline is a paradise for beach lovers. Only a short walk or driving distance from the holiday property, secluded beaches with emerald waters offer a beautiful escape. In contrast, a bicycle or short walk leads to nature trails through a Marine and Nature Reserve. The Mediterranean course at "I Monasteri" is a must-visit for golf enthusiasts, nestled among lemon and olive trees. You'll love walking 10 minutes to the closest restaurant when you get hungry. A supermarket can be found nearby if you need to stock up on groceries.

Begin your Sicilian adventure in Syracuse, the closest city, only a 20-minute drive from the villa. This ancient city, once a significant power of the Mediterranean world, is a treasure trove of Greek and Roman history. The highlight is the Ancient Greek theatre, where millennia-old tragedies still unfold under the stars. The city's vibrant nightlife and various restaurants offer a modern contrast to its historical sites, superb for spending an entire day soaking up its atmosphere.

Drive a short distance to Modica and Ragusa, where the streets are a canvas of Baroque architecture. These unesco World Heritage Sites are feasts for the eyes and palate, with their renowned chocolate and exquisite Sicilian cuisine.

Taormina, perched on a cliff overlooking the Ionian Sea, offers awe-inspiring views, ancient ruins, and chic boutiques. The nearby city of Catania, under the shadow of Mount Etna, is a vibrant hub of culture and gastronomy. Explore the Etna Volcano Nature Park, a haven for hikers and wine enthusiasts.

In Catania, Sicily's second-largest city, you'll find a vibrant blend of history, culture, and gastronomy. Nestled at the foot of Mount Etna, Catania enchants with its lively fish markets, baroque architecture, and bustling piazzas. The city's rich culinary scene, from street food to upscale dining, offers an authentic taste of Sicilian flavours. Take advantage of the majestic Cathedral of Saint Agatha and the bustling Via Etnea for an authentic Catania experience.

    Villa Syracusia, a dream come true. We loved Syracuse as a family for its culinary, seaside and cultural treasures. However, Syracuse will forever be remembered by our 6-star stay at Villa Syracusia. This immense historic building tastefully renovated offers modern comfort in a classic decor and a breathtaking view of the bay of Syracuse. The blue of the sea and the activity of the port make it a privileged place in absolute calm. Its charm and space wonderfully express the Sicilian Dolce Vita and lunches and dinners Mediterranean dishes on the terrace are a real treat. We can't wait to go back one day...
