Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean and one of Italy’s most fascinating places to explore.
Mount Etna dominates the eastern coast landscape, while historic port towns, citrus groves and old stone streets stretch across the island. Beaches range from long sandy bays to volcanic coves, with clear water made for lazy afternoons by the sea.
A Villacation in Sicily gives you the freedom to experience it all your way. Morning coffee on the terrace. Laughter-filled afternoons by your private pool. Evenings wandering through historic port towns before heading back to your villa for dinner under the stars.
Our hand-selected villas in Sicily are spread across the island, from historic Syracuse, a UNESCO World Heritage city filled with Greek and Roman ruins, to the beautiful coastal resort of Acireale overlooking the Ionian Sea.

There's more to a great holiday than simply booking flights and a villa. Our team is here to help with all the little extra details, so your time in Sicily feels stress-free from the start.
All our villas have been hand-picked by our expert team using our knowledge of what makes the perfect family villa holiday.
It’s impossible not to be inspired by your surroundings in Sicily.
You might spend the morning swimming in clear water, the afternoon exploring Greek and Roman ruins and the evening sitting in a busy piazza tucking into a plate of pasta con le sarde. It’s relaxed, welcoming and bursting with character.
Sicily offers something different every day.
History lovers will love exploring the ancient ruins in Syracuse or visiting museums filled with artefacts from the island’s long past.
Beach days are just as rewarding. The island has a mix of sandy beaches and quiet bays, many situated close to our hand-picked villas.
Food is another highlight. Local markets are filled with fresh seafood, citrus fruit and pastries, while dishes like arancini and cannoli are an absolute must-try. Pick up ingredients and cook at your villa, or head out to a trattoria for a feast you’ll still be dreaming about years later.
Beyond the coast, Sicily’s countryside boasts olive groves, vineyards and ancient ruins hidden among the hills. Perfect for walking, exploring and discovering somewhere new.
Sicily’s dramatic past stretches back thousands of years and traces of it can be found around every corner.
In Syracuse, ancient Greek temples sit beside Roman amphitheatres and medieval streets. Palermo’s grand cathedral and historic markets reflect the island’s Arab and Norman heritage, while castles and forts are dotted around many coastal towns.
You don’t need a packed itinerary to appreciate it. Exploring at your own pace is far more rewarding than trying to see everything in one go.
Sicily was made for family Villacations.
Beaches are within easy reach and many have shallow water, making them ideal for younger swimmers. Towns are lively without feeling overwhelming, and family-friendly restaurants serving pizza, pasta and gelato are never far away.
Waterparks such as Aretusa Park near Syracuse offer slides and pools for full days of fun, while historic ruins and castles give children plenty to explore.
Then it’s back to your villa. Back to your pool. Back to your own space to relax together
If you enjoy something more active, Sicily has plenty to offer.
Mount Etna, Europe’s tallest active volcano, can be reached by road and explored on guided walks or hikes from Rifugio Sapienza.
Along the coast you’ll find diving, snorkelling, sailing and kitesurfing in clear Mediterranean water. Inland, the countryside offers walking trails and off-road 4x4 tours through vineyards, hills and volcanic landscapes.
Explore during the day, then return to your villa to rest before doing it all again tomorrow.
