Villa Etnamare is situated up on a hill overlooking the green East coast of Sicily, between Mount Etna and the Ionian sea. It is surrounded by a land of five hectares dotted with heavily laden citrus trees and flowers.

SWIMMING POOL
A 25-meter long swimming pool is set amongst orange and olive trees on a natural terrace offering spectacular views of the Volcano and of the whole coastline as far as Catania, Giardini Naxos and Taormina.
The villa, which is divided into combinable units (called Glicine, Girasole and Geranio), will be available on request as a large single unit, with exclusive use of the Pool, from Spring 2027.

INTERIORS
The villa offers seven bedrooms, five bathrooms and two living areas with fully equipped kitchens.
It can also be rented, on specific times of the year, as a shared property divided into two units,at a reduced cost for up to two families or groups. Please, check Glicine or Girasole pages if you wish to get more information on this second option.


Its large sliding doors access a huge, panoramic terrace offering spectacular views of the Ionian coast, as far as Calabria on the east side, and the Catania bay on the south side.
The property as a whole is huge and the photos don't make it justice. Both the inside and outside areas are equipped with three 6-seater tables, for a total of six tables, therefore it offers plenty of space for large groups.

The villa is equipped with hot/cold air conditioners in all rooms, smart TV, ovens, microwave, refrigerators, iron and ironing board, hairdryer, washing machines, fully equipped kitchen, free wi-fi. The interiors are chosen with care, using high quality natural materials.


SURROUNDINGS
Villa EtnAmare lies only 500 metres away from Santa Venerina. This quiet, landscaped town of 8000 inhabitants is dedicated to gastronomic tourism and offers an impressive number of excellent cafes, restaurants and wineries, many of which are within walking distance.
Two supermarkets and a couple of groceries and bakeries are 5 minutes walk, while the nearest shopping mall, Conforama, which is open even on Sunday, is at 10 minutes driving distance.

Santa Venerina is an excellent base from which to explore eastern Sicily, thanks to its very strategic position halfway between Catania and Taormina.
The town is 5 minutes drive from the motorway A18 Catania-Messina from which, in an average time of 20 minutes, you can reach the highlights of Eastern Sicily, such as Taormina, Alcantara Gorge, Catania, Acicastello, Acireale, Mt Etna and Giardini Naxos. The nearest beaches can be found at 10 minutes drive.

The villa is also an excellent starting point from which to explore Mount Etna and its surroundings. Rifugio Sapienza, the main ski area, where you can take the Etna cableway up to Mount Etna is 10 km away from the villa.

The sun of Sicily holds the record in Europe and maintains a mild climate throughout the year. Spring is the ideal time to enjoy the culture and nature that this island has to offer. It’s well worth making a trip just to experience the Easter processions, bringing together folklore and tradition in an incredibly mystic way. The interior is spectacular, with the mountain slopes exploding in colour, while on the coast the first bathers start taking to the beaches. In autumn, throughout October and mid-November, the sea water is still warmed by the summer sun, and the daytime temperature still reaches 30°c during the warmest hours. Festivals dedicated to local products such as wine, mushrooms and sweets are organized in many towns on the slopes of Etna. Our Villa is suitable for winter, Christmas and New Year. The weather between December and March can often be mild and sunny, but each of the rooms have a cozy quality allied to good heating systems and plenty of indoor space just in case!
