Casa Citronella sits just 100m from the sea in a seaside resort in south-eastern Sicily. A short walk will take you to a beautiful sandy beach with alluring blue water that’s ideal for snorkelling. The shore is backed by a handful of summer beach bars that sell a delicious array of refreshments and snacks.

Marzamemi, only a five-minute drive away, is a charming fishing village with a lovely harbour where you can spend the day shopping, diving or indulging in some local cuisine. Wander through the cobbled streets that flow through quaint little buildings and historical architecture such as the Church of Dan Francesco di Paola and the Prince’s Pallazo Tonnara. Settle in the Piazza Regina Margherita and enjoy some food or drink al fresco in the square – there are lots of different restaurants to pick from.

For a complete change of scenery, head to the Vendicari Nature Reserve. There are a wide variety of hiking trails which take you through a varied landscape to incredible views and archeological remains. Look out for the different birds that pass through the marshes during their migration such as herons, dunlins, stalks and even flamingos! The reserve is made up of 1,500 hectares of unspoiled, protected land including five different beaches – ideal for a day trip.

The UNESCO world heritage site of Ortigia, a stunning and historic island connected to the magnificent city of Syracuse, is just an hour away by car. Even closer to your villa, other notable Sicilian towns to visit include Noto, Modica and Ragusa, all incredible places full of history, culture and fine cuisine.

Sicily is a unique island with an extensive coastline and rich culture. Throughout its history, many different people have settled on the island, each bringing with them their own cuisine. Today, you’ll find Mediterranean dishes across different parts of the island inspired by Arab, Spanish, Greek and French influences. With historical villages, pretty beaches and a wonderfully varied landscape, this region is a great place to explore.
