Barefoot Beach

Barefoot Beach: Sicily

Perched right on the beach, this home is perfect for guests who are craving some vitamin sea. With epic views across the Mediterranean and plenty of style, it's the ideal place to begin your adventures on the island of Sicily.

The villa has huge glass windows, meaning that you can admire the water as you relax in the living room or whip up some tasty antipasti in the kitchen. Grab your favourite book and get comfy in the shade on the outdoor sofa, before taking a dip in the plunge pool. And, come evening, you can pop open some prosecco and enjoy a delicious alfresco meal on the terrace.

You'll probably want to spend much of your time down on the golden sand, swimming and sunbathing. However, if you fancy a day trip, you can drive over to the baroque city of Noto in just half an hour to visit the impressive cathedral. And, if you don't mind travelling a little further, historic Syracuse, with its ancient ruins and excellent museums, is fifty minutes away.
