Peaceful and Panoramic Retreat with PRIVATE POOL near Taormina and the Sea

Panoramic house set in an unspoiled and peaceful setting with private pool. From its private garden and shaded terraces a wonderful view unfold in front of your eyes: the green valley of the Alcantara river gently reaching into the bay of Giardini Naxos, whose renowned sandy beaches and cafes are just 15 minutes away by car.

Villa Acquerello consists of two identical apartments each with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom with shower, a kitchen and a living room. In one living room there is a single sofa bed and in a corner of the other living room a single bed can be added. The house therefore can host up to 10 people and it is the ideal place for families and friends who want to enjoy their privacy, the sound of nature and a sweeping view every morning, and celebrate glorious days of pure relax.

The closest restaurant, which it also a good one, is at about 700 meters.

N.B. Villa Acquerello is all on the ground floor. The ladder you see on the pictures is purely decorative. It leads to a mezzanine that is closed.

N.B. The location of Villa Acquerello is uniquely peaceful, but in order to reach it you will have to drive over an unpaved and steep road for the last bit.

A hedge partially surrounds the private pool which is open from half April until October.
It measures 11 x 5,50 m and it is 1,40 m deep.

We had amazing time at the Villa. We loved its location and privacy and the views were incredible. It was in a good position to explore lots of Eastern Sicily-Taormina and Siracusa were stunning and I would highly recommend it!

We enjoyed our two week stay at this property. A rural retreat with stunning views. The property was clean and as advertised, and had a good outdoor eating area. A couple of kitchen utensils were missing, but other than that we’ll equipped.

Traumhafte Aufenthalt
Die Lage ist einfach nur unglaublich - inmitten der Natur mit Blick auf das Meer und die Berge, am Abend kommen Pferde vorbei … Erholung pur. Der Kontakt war unkompliziert und es kam sofort jemand, wenn wir Hilfe benötigten.

Great for cycling holiday (if you like climbing)
We stayed in this villa for a cycling trip with six people. For this purpose, the villa is great with a nice location for numerous trips, a pool to cool down in, and a breathtaking view when relaxing after a ride. There are some nice little towns around, a bit off the beaten track. The house has six beds (excl. the couches) so with six everyone has his/her own bed. Kitchen is equipped well enough to cook for all. Only downside is the steep, gravel road you need to climb and descent on each trip. Quite a challenge with both bike and rental car.

Great House with Amazing Pool
The house is very nice and clean. We rented both apartments because we were 8 people. There’s AC inside and nice washing machines (however no dishwasher). The location is beautiful with a view of the mountains and even a bit of the sea. Very quiet area with only a few neighbours (no one who can look at the garden, house or pool area, which was nice and private). The street leading to the house is extremely steep and narrow. We would recommend only going there in smaller cars. All in all we had a great stay. The owner was very nice and even dropped by and cleaned the pool one very early morning during the stay and brought brand new furniture for the garden. We definitely recommend staying at the house!

Even more beautiful than in the pictures!
It is even more idyllic than in the pictures. You can see the sea from the garden, the garden is very nicely made with different plants. The kitchen is equipped with all the items you need, and there are so many chairs and tables that you don't have to carry them around all the time. From the house you can climb on top of the mountain above. In twenty minutes you are at a beautiful, sandy beach, check out the restaurant Pino Verde directly between forest and the sea! Giuseppe was very friendly and quickly responded to our texts, before, during the stay and also after when we forgot something in the house. Only two downsides, there are really no hiking paths starting from the house, you have to take the car, but of course there are many nice areas around. Thanks for the nice vacation!

Nice and quiet location with pleasant climate
The property is beautifully located on a hill overlooking the Alcantara valley. It is very sunny with a nice breeze coming up the hill. Both flats are well equipped (just a dishwasher would have been nice). Contact with the owners and caretakers was quick and Helpful. The pool is nice and well maintained. Plenty of activities in the area (Taormina, Erna north side, Castiglione, Catania, Syracuse are all well reachable). We had a very pleasant stay and would definitely recommend it.
