Turquoise Twist

Sitting quietly on the edge of Torre Salsa nature reserve, this serene Sicilian villa is a little slice of holiday heaven. The outdoor space encourages you to make the most of the glorious Mediterranean weather, so regardless of whether you’re soaking up some rays on the sun lounger, swimming lengths in the sparkling pool, or settled down on the outdoor sofa with your holiday read, you can enjoy the feeling of the sun warming your skin and drink in the turquoise sea vistas.

We love the steps leading up to the villa, with beautifully painted tiles depicting different scenes and adding a splash of colour and character. Inside, the open-plan kitchen and living area is bright and welcoming, with the shimmer of the teal walls adding a touch of elegance to contrast the masonry kitchen. As weariness sets in towards the end of the day, step through to your tranquil bedroom, climb under the crisp white sheets and you’ll soon fall into a blissful slumber.

When you’re ready to explore the area, take a short stroll down to Bovo Marina beach where you can enjoy the soft cushion of sand under your feet, and feel contentment wash over you.
