8 Bedroom Villa in Aci Castello, acicastello

Very elegant and refined, in
typical Sicilian style.

Villa Vanisia is nestled among the lemon trees on the
hill of Acicastello, where the scent of orange blossoms from the
citrus trees fills the air with its
intoxicating fragrance. The flower-filled garden overlooks the
sea and the Gulf of Catania, and then further
away, all the way to the Bay of Syracuse. The villa
is furnished with period pieces, with meticulous attention
to detail; the large windows
look out onto the garden and the sea.
The living area
The four
bedrooms inside the house
are cozy and quiet, each with its
own bathroom—one of which features a shower,
sauna, and Jacuzzi. The two
outdoor bedrooms open directly onto the
garden and both have
separate bathrooms. The built-in kitchen is
complemented by a fully functional wood-fired oven
. Outside, there is
also a barbecue area for
outdoor cooking. The private pool, with
ample space, is fenced in, making it suitable for
children, and overlooks the lemon grove; from the pool,
the view stretches across the Gulf of
Catania all the way to Augusta.

Taormina and the Alcantara Gorges, 40

Romana del Casale in Piazza Armerina, and

spend a day at the beach, the

Also just a short distance away is the
Norman castle of Acicastello at

of the Faraglioni of Acitrezza, the town of
“Malavoglia” by Giovanni Verga. About

Summary: We spent a week here with our family (17 people total, ages 2-75) and could not have had a better time. The villa is stunning and has one beautiful room after another! The views are breathtaking and the grounds themselves are so well taken care of. Its private and feels very safe and secure. The air conditioners in each room worked very well (important for us Americans who love their AC) and having a separate bathroom/shower for each room was a must.If you want a beautiful rustic villa with endless amounts of charm - this is your place. I would go back tomorrow if I could!

Summary: The property was well appointed and equipped. Very clean with great views plenty of space for our party of 7 ranging in age from 9 to 76. Daniella is an excellent host and responds quickly. AC units worked very well. I would strongly recommend this property

Summary: We arrived at Villa Vanisia and didn’t want to leave! The house has so many beautiful spaces for togetherness and alone time. One of us water painted. Others read books. The athletes used the gym. Pool games and card games occurred. We loved the pool and hot tub. All of the bedrooms are fabulous and most have en-suite bathrooms. Our hosts Daniela and Luigi were gracious. They provided a crib and changing table for the baby. I highly recommend the pizza guy, Attilio, who came and got that forno going. And we had Glenda prepare us an Italian dinner. We are already trying to figure out how/when we can go back.

Summary: My family and I stayed in this beautiful villa for a week in June, we never got tired of the stunning sea views! The garden is incredible, in full bloom and well taken care of. The pool was the perfect spot to relax all day. The villa has plenty of room, including the main house and two separate bedrooms and baths, perfect for sharing with a big group. There’s even a huge movie room and pool table downstairs! While the space was amazing, the best part of this villa is the owner and caretaker, Daniela. She made sure we had everything we needed and responded to requests very fast. She helped with recommendations and scheduling activities and meals. We did appreciate having multiple cars here, as you do need to drive to get to places. Mille grazie, Daniela!

Summary: I've rented villas all over Sicily and Villa Vanisia is overall the best experience I've ever had. In addition to being a stunning property, Daniela and Luigi are kind and thoughtful hosts. As a chef, a functional kitchen is important, the Villa Vanisia's is the best equipped I've experienced. A perfect property.

Summary: From the moment we arrived and greeted by the owner Daniela we were made to feel so welcome. Daniela went above and beyond in making us feel at home and was the perfect hostess, helping us with everything from arranging transport, shopping and the chef for pizza. The villa itself is absolutely beautiful and exceeded our expectations with a view from the infinity pool that is breathtaking. We had everything we could need and happily spent days at the villa enjoying the facilities. Car hire is recommended to aid getting out and about as it is a little remote, though it is only a 15 minute walk up to the grocers, butchers, fishmonger and pistacherrie at Ficarazzi. A truly wonderful stay in a beautiful part of the world. Thank you Daniela. Our booking experience through VRBO was appalling and VRBO customer service totally lacking and woeful.
