About this property

Villa Alma - spectacular views on bay of Siracusa, 3 bedrooms, all ensuite

Villa Alma is a newly renovated villa with 3 bedrooms, each with en-suite bathroom, and two large terraces with spectacular sea views to Ortigia and Etna. The large garden is minutes away from a seafront bar / cafe and restaurant.

On the ground floor, the villa has 2 bedrooms, each facing opposite ends of an interior courtyard, and a large living area with kitchen and dining table.

On the first floor, the bedroom has an adjoining suite with sofabed, and there are two large terraces with panoramic views across the Bay of Siracusa. The second terrace has an outdoor kitchen and is ideal for entertaining.

Villa Alma is ideal for families or groups of friends, and sleeps 6 comfortably. On the ground floor, the second bedroom also has a third bed (suitable for a child), and a cot can be provided in the other bedroom upon request.

Each of the bedrooms has airconditioning.

The villa is situated in Isola, ideally located between Ortigia, the old town of Siracusa, and the beautiful coastline and beaches of Plemmirio, Arenella and Fontane Bianche to the south. Within 15 minutes by car you can be in Ortigia or on the beach at Fontane Bianche.

You can enjoy a Sicilian breakfast of granite and brioche at the fantastic Cafe Marisia, just across the road from the villa. Two minutes walk in the other direction there's La Greca, a local shop and deli selling all the essentials, and a chemist Parafarmacia Isola has recently opened just a few steps from the villa. Along the coastline all within walking distance are a number of excellent seafood restaurants.

About the host

Hosted by Tony

Host profile image
We are Tony and Arianna, we met in London in 2000 and eight years later got married in Siracusa - our reception was just a few hundred yards from the villa's location.

Arianna is from Siracusa and her parents still live in the town. Tony is from London and we now both live there with our two boys, and go to Siracusa for our holidays.

Why they chose this property

We started looking for a house of our own in Sicily some years ago, and found our villa in 2012. It needed a lot of work but we saw the potential of such a fabulous coastal position. We bought and fully renovated the villa in 2013 and started renting it in the spring of the following year.

What makes this property unique

Villa Alma is located just south of the historic city of Syracuse, with spectacular views across the bay to the old town of Ortigia. The villa is newly renovated and has 3 bedrooms, each with en-suite bathroom, and two large terraces with panoramic views.

The villa has a large garden and is minutes away from a seafront bar/cafe. Shops and several excellent seafood restaurants are all within walking distance.

Villa Alma is the perfect location from which to explore all the riches that Sicily has to offer - a year-round climate, beautiful beaches, the Mt Etna volcano, and so much more!

We are the main point of contact for our visitors during their stay, while Arianna's parents live locally in order to greet our guests and offer any further assistance.

We hope you enjoy your holiday at Villa Alma as much as we do!
