A huge 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 is divided into four independent units, with private terraces. The choice to divide such a large property into a few units was made by its owners, who built it from the foundations, to preserve its exclusivity but at a more accessible cost.

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 apartments are suitable for winter, Christmas and New Year. The weather between December and March can often be mild and sunny, but each of the apartments have a cozy quality allied to good heating systems and plenty of indoor space just in case! Guest access Villa EtnAmare is divided into 4 units: "Glicine" and "Girasole" with 3 bedrooms, "Geranio" with 2 bedrooms and "Gelsomino" with 1 bedroom, each of them with independent access and private terrace. The terraces are very spacious, screened and spaced apart to ensure privacy. The garden is spread over two levels which reflect the model of the old terraced vineyards, so both the apartments on the first floor (Girasole, Gelsomino and Glicine) and the one on the ground floor (Geranio) overlook it directly. The swimming pool is located on the highest garden level, the same as the apartments on the first floor. A free covered car park is in the villa's ground floor. This property stands on five hectares estate owned by Nadia and her family. Guests are free to walk its fragrant paths and pick the fruit themselves. The infinity pool is one of the largest outdoor pools on the island. The choice to divide such a large property into just four units was made to preserve its exclusivity, at a more accessible cost. This Airbnb is not suitable, due to its large size, for self check-in, therefore good communication with hosts from the moment of booking is required, in order to gain access. Late arrivals must be agreed with hosts before booking. Other things to note Nadia's father bought the property in 1986. He was enchanted by the beauty of that vast plot of land cultivated with vineyards and citrus groves that offered an unrivaled view and that, despite being in the countryside, was so well connected to neighboring towns. In 2001 began the construction of the present villa, which was completed in 2010. Registration Details IT087048C2N5F18396
