Overview
Villa Ipno is located just a stone’s throw away from the crashing waves of the Ionian Sea, which you can access via a nearby pathway. While staying here, you could opt to spend lazy days at the nearby beaches and nature reserves or you could spend your time discovering historic and cultural attractions in Noto and Syracuse.
Spread over two floors, Villa Ipno is a delightful home with plenty of space for a group of friends or a small family. This recently built villa has been designed with care to create a comfortable home from home for guests. White and sandy tones fill the home and allow the incredible sea views to take centre stage. The home is flooded with natural light from the expansive windows which look out on to the leafy green garden and the sea. High quality furnishings and crisp linens add an elegant feel to the villa, while features such as air-conditioning, Smart TVs and Wi-Fi ensure that you will have everything on hand for a relaxing stay.
The ground floor is where you will find the heart of the home; the open-plan living and dining room. As evening falls, this space is a sociable hub where you can all gather over meals and drinks, moving between the living area with sofas and a fireplace and the connected dining room. Foodies will find everything they need for cooking up delicious meals in the adjoining kitchen, unless you prefer to book a private chef and put your feet up.
When you are in need of a good night’s sleep, there are three calming bedrooms on offer at the home. Downstairs there is a bedroom which can be set up as a twin room or with a king-sized double bed, this room opens out on to its own furnished terrace and has a contemporary en-suite bathroom. Upstairs there are two more bedrooms, each with their own balconies, king-sized double beds, Smart TVs and en-suite bathrooms.
Outside, the home is enveloped by 3500m2 of landscaped, gated gardens, which are a tranquil oasis despite being close to the village. With fantastic summer weather, your group will love spending time out in the garden where you can fire up the barbecue and dine al-fresco, flick through a magazine on the outdoor armchairs or take a dip in the private, heated pool.
If a stoney beach with a serviced beach club is more your style, you will find the nearest Lido at just a short drive away. There also a number of shops and restaurants close by to the villa which is really handy. If you would prefer a completely natural cove which backs on to pine forests and hiking trails, Plemmirio Nature Reserve is only a few kilometres away!
In addition to beautiful natural surroundings and sun-drenched beaches, this area of Sicily is home to some incredible towns and cities, why not take a day trip to Noto which is 36km away or Syracuse which is 13km away.

The best place to dine out in Syracuse is the stunning island of Ortigia which is joined the main city by bridges. Ortigia is where you will find the cities Old Town; this gorgeous island is a labyrinth of medieval streets and is surrounded by the sea as it juts out from the coastline. Traditional family run eateries and bars can be found here, serving local dishes.
After a busy day in the city, you may be in need of a restful trip to the beach. If you fancy trying out some water sports or taking a boat trip then head over to the larger beach resort of Fontane Bianche which is 15km away.
