Villa Manazza Italy

Tucked away near Sicily’s Tyrrhenian coast, Villa Manazza offers stunning views of the coast. Watch the sunset over the Aeolian Islands while relaxing on the terrace or swimming in the alluring pool that has a hydromassage area. With two kitchens and five beautifully decorated bedrooms, this villa is the perfect place for large groups to holiday.
Designed with elegance, the interior of this home oozes class and sophistication. Marble flooring, stunning chandeliers and antiques create a feeling of luxury, complimented by gorgeous yet cosy furnishings. The upstairs kitchen is equipped with modern appliances and opens out to a regal living/dining room with a grand piano. Here you’ll find a huge window which offers an enchanting view of the sea and on those warming nights you can dine out on the terrace.
This feeling of extravagance continues outside the villa. A large swimming pool stretches alongside the panoramic views, so you can take a dip while admiring the beauty. There are several terraces to choose from, so you can opt to dine in the shade or indulge in some afternoon tea in the sunshine. Dotted with colourful flowers and plants, the garden is the perfect place to enjoy some quiet time reading or sunbathing.
Villa Manazza is situated a short drive to a tourist town, which is home to a beautiful sandy beach and is near a wildlife park. Rock pools are dotted across the coast, as well as some incredible formations that sit in the sea. Whether you like pebbled shores or prefer the smooth white sand, there are lots of places along the seafront to choose from. This lovely area is also full of restaurants and bars, where you can immerse yourself in the culture by trying out the delicious cuisine.
Sicily is a stunning island with a vast, mountainous coast made up of rocky alcoves and lovely beaches. The region is full of things to do, whether it’s following the nature trails of Nebrodi Park or climbing to the summit of Mount Etna. Learn about Sicily’s in-depth past by exploring the historical town of Cefalù and visiting Tindari’s archaeological site. For an exciting day out, head to Milazzo and set sail for the Aeolian islands. This beautiful home is located a short drive from a vibrant tourist town, popular thanks to its picturesque coastline backed by shops and cafés. Choose from bright white sand or pebbled beaches, with crystal clear water that’s great for snorkelling. For a taste of local cuisine, the nearest restaurant is around 1km away and there are lots of different eateries along the coast. Other activities nearby are tennis (2km) and horse riding (11km) which are ideal for active groups.
If you are a fan of history, you will love the ancient town of Tindari (35km). Famous for its archaeological site, visitors climb the hilltop to discover the monumental ruins which have stone archways still intact. You’ll even find a fascinating Greek theatre, a mosaic pavement and some Roman tombs. The site is open to the public to freely explore and offers amazing views of the mountains. The town is also home to a protected nature reserve with an unspoilt beach, where several different plants and animals reside.
Active groups should head to Nebrodi Park (61km), Sicily’s largest national park. The spectacular landscape is full of mountains, the highest being over 1800m, with an awesome backdrop of Mount Etna. Explore the historical towns dotted around, including San Fratello, Floresta and Convento di San Francesco which is home to an 11th-century Norman church. With blue lakes, alluring villages and panoramic sites, this park has so much to offer.
With a mountainous landscape and extensive coastline, no two days in Sicily need be the same. One day you could be climbing Mount Etna’s summit, the next discovering the historical town or Cefalù and visiting Tindari’s archaeological site. For something a bit different, head to the vibrant city of Milazzo, which is full of restaurants, shops and bars, then catch a ferry to the Aeolian islands.
