They say a picture paints a thousand words but we could write endless poetry and prose about how utterly enchanting this home is. If you’ve ever dreamed of the ultimate secluded getaway – where the beach is right on your doorstep, where open doors let in the balmy sea breeze and where sunsets are made magical from a pergola-framed sofa – we bet this home comes close to your reveries. Hugging Sicily’s south-eastern coast, this idyllic retreat is the definition of a summer beach house, with wooden beams, blue shutters, panoramic sea views and furnishings made of local, handcrafted materials. Spend your days relaxing under the shade of the pergola or lazing on a sun chair on the stretch of golden sand right outside your door. Cool off from the heat with a dip in the sea or in the private saltwater plunge pool set amongst a cactus garden. If you can bear to tear yourself away from your private paradise, Pozzallo with its 15th century tower and bustling port is just a fifteen-minute drive away while the fishing village of Marzamemi is twenty-five minutes away by car. After a day of relaxation or visiting the surrounding sights, come back home for an alfresco meal as you watch the sunset kiss the water’s edge.
