6 Bedrooms

Location and Surrounding Area
Escape the everyday at this charming retreat on the island of Salina, the second-largest and greenest of the Aeolian Islands, just off the northern coast of Sicily. Renowned for its stunning sea views, Salina is blanketed with caper bushes, olive groves and vineyards, offering an authentic taste of Mediterranean life. Property 1651263780 is ideally located near the picturesque hillside village of Malfa, one of the most enchanting spots on the island. Among all the Aeolian islands, Salina stands out as the perfect base.

Salina is the green heart of the Aeolian archipelago, known for its verdant hillsides, twin volcanic peaks, and fertile landscapes that produce some of the region’s best capers and Malvasia wine. Less crowded than its neighbours, the island offers an atmosphere of understated elegance and authentic island life. With its crystal-clear waters, charming villages like Malfa and Santa Marina, and scenic walking trails, Salina is a haven for nature lovers and those in search of peace and quiet.

Just across the sea lie Lipari and Vulcano, two of the most accessible and captivating islands in the Aeolian chain. Lipari, the largest of the islands, offers a lively town centre, archaeological sites, and dramatic coastal views, making it ideal for day trips and cultural exploration. Vulcano, with its smouldering crater, black sand beaches, and therapeutic mud baths, is a unique destination where volcanic energy meets seaside relaxation, a must-see for adventurous travellers.

Further afield, Panarea, Stromboli, Filicudi and Alicudi offer contrasting yet equally fascinating experiences. Chic and exclusive, Panarea attracts a stylish crowd with its whitewashed houses, fashionable beach clubs and crystal waters. Stromboli is famous for its active volcano, where guided night hikes offer front-row views of its glowing eruptions. Filicudi and Alicudi, the most remote and tranquil of the group, remain wild and untouched, ideal for those seeking solitude, pristine nature, and timeless island charm.

Property 1651263780 is 133 km from Reggio Calabria Airport, 211 km from Catania Fontanarossa Airport, and 298 km from Palermo Falcone Borsellino Airport. The villa is just 500 m from the centre of Malfa, 7 km from Santa Marina Salina, and 10 km from Lingua. Salina is well connected to the nearby Aeolian Islands. Lipari is about 30 minutes away by boat, Vulcano 45 minutes, and Panarea around 50 minutes. Stromboli takes about an hour and a half to reach. Filicudi and Alicudi are at roughly one hour and an hour and a half respectively.
