About this property

Panoramic Villa with Private Pool 10 min to Taormina and its sandy beaches!

Stylish contemporary villa in the heart of the unspoiled Alcantara Valley boasting a private panoramic pool.
Villa Alcantara is a superb retreat: exquisitely peaceful surroundings, fully air-conditioned and at only 10 to 15 minutes drive from Taormina and the renowned beaches of Giardini Naxos.

Perched on the side of a mountain, the villa offers a wide view on the luxuriant landscape. A modern arch design set on the edge of the 50 square meters terrace will help you frame a mental postcard of the surroundings that will be difficult to forget!

You access the bright living area from the terrace. Thanks to the wide sliding doors, the gorgeous spectacle of the nature around you will accompany your every daily gesture, while relaxing on the sofa or having breakfast on the dining table. The well-equipped kitchen and a satellite TV with a DVD player will make you feel right at home. On this floor there is also a practical toilet.

The sleeping area, with three double bedrooms, is on the floor below and it is connected internally by a marble stairway and externally by a second stairway leading directly to the pool. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a Jacuzzi. The other two bedrooms, (one of which also features a bunk bed), have access to a beautiful 'hammam’ style bathroom with natural light coming through the remarkable skylights. Finally, there is a laundry room and a handy outdoor shower, ideal in the summer returning from the beach.

Villa Alcantara is… totally the favourite set for exclusive holiday seekers!

SURROUNDING

The Alcantara Valley is one of the lushest valleys of Sicily thanks to the presence of the Alcantara River that supplies irrigation water to the many citrus orchards cultivated in the area all year round. Even during the hot and dry Sicilian summers, the Alcatara Rivers remains ice cold, providing to all its visitors with fresh relaxing moments. You can simply wet your feet and peacefully lying down on its beaches and on its rocks, or doing fun activities such us tubing excursions or exploring the river with its lava-stone walls and waterfalls by hiking or by riding a horse.

The Alcantara Valley is a truly strategic base from where to explore the Eastern side of Sicily. The charming town of Taormina, its vibrant coast and coast villages (30km of beaches from Fondachello to Sant’Alessio Siculo), Mt Etna and its authentic villages are all very close by.

If you are a wine-lover you cannot miss Castiglione di Sicilia, a nearby village known as ‘the city of wine’ (‘Città del Vino’) for its famous vineyards and wineries.

Property was good. Owners were great and responsive. View from villa is lovely. Locally there is just the nearby resturant that is very nice but we thought menu limited and also pricey. Most days we went into Tao which is fabulous. You just need to accept the 30 min drive each way.
