Property 1651263746 - Letojanni - Sicily

7 Bedrooms - Saltwater Pool

Location and Surrounding Area. Located near Taormina and steps from the region’s most beautiful beaches, this modern seven-bedroom villa is the perfect place for a relaxing break in one of the most popular tourist destinations in Sicily. The villa is located just outside Letojanni, a renowned seaside town a few kilometers from Taormina. From this charming dream villa, in a few minutes by car, you can easily reach the historic center of Taormina, with its characteristic alleys animated by boutiques, cafes, restaurants and night clubs.

Perched on the side of a mountain, Taormina is one of Sicily's most popular summer destinations, a chic resort town popular with holidaying high-rollers and those wanting a taste of Sicilian dolce vita. Founded in the 4th century BC, Taormina enjoyed great prosperity under the Greek ruler Gelon II and later under the Romans, but fell into quiet obscurity after being conquered by the Normans in 1087. Its reincarnation as a tourist destination dates to the 18th century, when northern Europeans discovered it on the Grand Tour.

Messina sits on a curved harbor at the northernmost point of Sicily's Ionian Coast, a few kilometers from the Italian mainland. A major transport hub for centuries, it remains an important gateway to and from the island. While a devastating earthquake in 1908 razed many of Messina's historic monuments, it allowed the city to re-emerge with a distinctly Belle Époque air. Large boulevards and lower-rise, turn-of-the-century buildings exude a sense of space and calm missing from other major Sicilian cities.

In the surroundings you will also find the beaches of Letojanni, Mazzarò and Isola Bella, the cities of Catania and Syracuse, the villages of the Etna Park, the Alcantara gorges and the seaside villages of the Cyclops Riviera. For all the noise, chaos and scruffiness that hit the visitor at first glance, Catania has a strong magnetic pull. This is Sicily at its most youthful, a city packed with cool bars, abundant energy and an earthy spirit in sharp contrast to Palermo’s aristocratic airs.

More than any other city, Syracuse encapsulates Sicily's timeless beauty. Ancient Greek ruins rise out of citrus orchards, cafe tables spill onto baroque piazzas, and honey-hued medieval side streets lead down to the sparkling blue sea. Across the water from the mainland, Ortygia remains Syracuse's most beautiful corner, a deeply atmospheric quarter with an ever-growing legion of fans enamored with its streetscapes and attractive dining, drinking and shopping options.
