Nestled on the picturesque slopes of Mount Etna, this villa offers breathtaking views of the Ionian Sea and the surrounding Sicilian landscape. Elevated above sea level, this area is known for its fresh air and abundant sunshine, creating an ideal climate for a relaxing summer getaway,and vacation homes for Italians as well as travelers. The villa U Milo is an upscale take on a traditional Sicilian farmhouse, featuring large lawns with a swimming pool, outdoor spaces on two levels, comfortable furnishings and a charming kitchen adorned with handmade Sicilian majolica tiles, capturing the essence of local craftsmanship and tradition.
Just a three-minute drive away is the medieval village of U Milo, often referred to as the "City of Wine" for its many vineyards. This quaint village of around 1,000 inhabitants boasts cozy trattorias, bakeries, and an authentic slice of quiet Sicilian life.
From the villa, you're within reach of some of Sicily's most iconic destinations: 40 minutes to the glamorous town of Taormina, an hour and 20 minutes to Siracusa and Noto, and a short journey to the historic Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. The pristine beaches of southeast Sicily and the towns of Modica and Ragusa are also easily accessible, as is Catania, where you can hop on a ferry to Malta for a day trip.
For those seeking an authentic Sicilian experience, nearby villages such as Fornazzo, known for its porcini mushrooms, and Caselle, famous for its wines, offer scenic beauty and a rich history. This region is also known for its chestnut forests, hazelnut groves, and clementine orchards, ensuring that your stay will be both flavorful and unforgettable.
