A Sicilian Heart, A Seafront Escape: Etna Retreat

Arcile is on the enchanted east coast of Sicily. The peacefulness and safety of the house will allow you to enter a state of total relaxation in an exclusive context. So close to the sea that you will be rocked to sleep by the sound of the waves. A private pebble beach is a few steps below. A unique round room, overlooking the sea and Mt.Etna, will give you the impression that you are sailing on a boat. At a 30min drive from Catania Airport, it is an excellent location for exploring Sicily.

The house has three terraces: one in the backyard with an outdoor shower, a terrace in the front, where you can enjoy your meals with a spectacular view, and a large breathtaking sun deck on the roof.

Car is necessary because there is no public transportation that goes to the area.

Aqua shoes needed.

There is a railway a couple of yards behind the house. Sometimes trains pass by (never during the night) but it has never interfered with the peacefulness of the accommodation.

We are madly in love with this house and whenever we can we escape from the hustle and bustle of city life to restore our souls.
