Villa Etnamare with Infinity pool between Mt Etna and the Jonian sea - "Glicine"

Villa Etnamare is situated up on a hill overlooking the green East coast of Sicily, between Mount Etna and the Ionian sea. It is surrounded by a land of five hectares dotted with heavily laden citrus trees and flowers.
A huge 25 meter long infinity 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 two storey unit GLICINE dominates the northeast wing of the villa, with a splendid sea view over the whole coastline between Taormina and Catania, as well as Mt Etna views, both from the interior and from its secluded private terrace with balcony.

This unit is the largest of the four, as it offers three double bedrooms, three bathrooms and three living rooms.
The ground floor consists of a double bedroom, a bathroom with shower and a large living room with fully equipped kitchen and extendable wooden table, high quality double sofa bed and two large sliding doors giving access to a private terrace with balcony equipped with parasol, garden furniture and barbecue.

A wooden staircase leads you to the upper floor, which offers two double bedrooms, two bathrooms and two further living areas equipped with single beds/cot. There are also two panoramic balconies.
This unit as a whole can accommodate up to 8 adults and an infant. The rental cost varies depending on the number of people, so it is also suitable for families of 4 people or less, at a reduced price for two bedrooms/bathrooms.

Glicine's third bedroom/bathroom/living room upstairs are available upon request and at an additional cost if you are traveling with less than 5 people.
Please, note that the living areas located upstairs can be used as additional bedrooms, therefore even if you are with four people, you will still have two bedrooms,two bathrooms and an extra living space with a single bed upstairs, at no additional cost.

GLICINE is equipped with hot/cold air conditioners, LCD TV, oven, refrigerator, iron and ironing board, hairdryer, washing machine, fully equipped kitchen, free wi-fi. 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!
