Edge of Destiny

Edge of Destiny: Sicily

Situated right on the edge of the sparkling Mediterranean and surrounded by sprawling palm trees, you’ll feel part of the luscious landscape in this impressive villa. Elegant and traditionally charming, this home provides an idyllic base for every guest.

The impressive terraced lounge, which is shaded by an awning, provides the ideal spot to begin your days with a morning espresso overlooking the sea, before stretching out on the loungers to catch the Sicilian rays. The soft salty breeze will help you keep cool, whilst the refreshing waters of your pristine pool offer a revitalising repose from the sun. The outdoor dining area is a focal point of this home – it’s minimally modern, modestly traditional, and seamlessly elegant. Fire up the barbecue and set to preparing an indulgent dinner spread for your loved ones in the sleek outdoor kitchen – we suggest locally-sourced prawns on the plancha.

While you could easily spend all day outside, step through the doors to be met with a tranquil blend of authentic and contemporary Italian design. With huge picture windows that frame the ocean vistas and plush furnishings in the comfortable living room – you’ve got a light-filled oasis to unwind in. Factor in the calm, pared-back bedrooms, and you’ve got all you could need for a blissful stay.

Another huge perk comes with the location. The Inizio sentiero per Monte Monaco hiking trail lies nearby, so you can easily head out on scenic walks. At the same time, the crystal waters and seafront tavernas of San Vito are 1km away, when you’re in the mood for a day on the sands.
