La Bella Sophia

Arrive at this stunning villa to be wowed by its charm and the breathtaking views – this is a truly idyllic setting for a family holiday or a getaway with a group of friends. Recently restored, it seamlessly blends antique elements with modern comforts, creating a perfect casa siciliana.

The inside is just as impressive as the surroundings – we love the light-filled rooms, with unique art pieces scattered about and plenty of comfy spaces for kicking back and relaxing.

Outside, you’ll find the glistening saltwater infinity pool inviting you to dip in and enjoy a refreshing swim. The huge terrace is just the place for a traditional Sicilian feast, which can be prepared for you here by a private chef. Should you wish to do some cooking yourself, the well-equipped country-style kitchen will inspire you to create delicious meals, using fresh local produce you’ll be able to pick up at the farmer’s market.

The whole party will enjoy nights of sweet dreams and restful sleep, courtesy of the plush bedrooms. Wake up reinvigorated and start your day with breakfast and freshly brewed coffee while you admire those island views.

Outside your gorgeous oasis you’ll find yourself just a short drive away from the beach, and there are also plenty of picturesque walks, including in Etna Park, to be explored closer to home. For a perfect day out, the historic city of Catania lies approximately forty-minutes away by car.
