Secluded in southeast Sicily, this villa overlooks the Val di Noto countryside from its garden terrace and partially shaded infinity pool. There are also plenty of other nooks around with ample seating to admire the views from, which is definitely the crown jewel of this home. Still, other aspects – the architectural design and bright interior – are worthy competitors. From here, San Lorenzo beach is only fifteen minutes away, and you can get to the fishing village of Marzamemi just as quickly, or find your way to the eco-resort nearby where you'll be able to make use of the spa, restaurant or gym.
