A hi-spec modern villa with endless views and a hill-top pool... Clementina sits atop its very own hill, surrounded by almond orchards, olive groves and the rolling Arcadian countryside of south-eastern Sicily. The horizon sparkles with the inviting blue of the Ionian Sea while a fantastically positioned pool offers views that you will never tire of. Just a few miles away is glorious baroque Noto and a wonderful selection of sandy beaches at Vendicari Nature Reserve.

From the Guest Book
Read the insightful reviews from travellers who have experienced this villa and our service firsthand.
Clementina itself was in a wonderful location with an exceptional pool. It was luxurious, relaxing, and authentic, beautifully decorated and has everything you could need in the kitchens. Plus the local team really made us feel special. 10/10!
HG August 2024
We have rented many villas in Italy and Clementina was one of the very best. It felt like a home, was beautifully decorated, the outdoor space was beyond expectations, the proximity to Noto was perfect, the homemade charcoal made us want to grill every night, and we loved the olive oil. We love to cook and this kitchen was so well equipped. It really is idyllic.

Clementina is a sublime place to relax and unwind. We loved everything really, the views, the location, the pool, the area, the facilities, it was just a wonderful place. We would return.

We had an exceptional holiday at Clementina, probably the best we have ever had. What stood out? Everything! The villa, the pool and the house staff. Also the people at The Thinking Traveller.

The Area
Clementina is set in rolling hills between the fascinating Baroque town of Noto and the beautiful natural reserve of Vendicari.
Noto is the most easterly of a chain of Baroque towns now protected as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is also perhaps the most perfect of the baroque towns, which were all rebuilt in flamboyant style following a major earthquake in 1693.
Vendicari Nature Reserve boasts some of the finest sandy beaches in Sicily, which are pleasingly under-populated even in the height of summer. Vendicari is also home to thousands of migrating flamingos, and sea turtles nest on its beaches.
If hiking in the hills is your thing, then there is some spectacular scenery in the rushing streams and waterfalls of Cassibile and at the Paleolithic burial sites in the dramatic valley of Pantalica.
Syracuse is just half an hour's drive away, and a day there is highly recommended to anybody spending a week or two at Clementina. A little further afield, the other baroque towns of Modica, Ragusa and Scicli are easily reachable in a day.
